Movie Review: Hi-Five

 



Michael's Movie Grade: F

A terrible superhero movie from Korea.

This film about five people receiving superpowers after receiving transplants from the same person is a textbook example of how not to make a superhero movie. Everything about this movie is terrible. The storyline is incredibly cliché. It also feels too basic to even fill its two-hour runtime, resulting in a movie that feels much longer than it is. There are also many moments that make no sense even by superhero logic. This movie also wants to be a sillier and more comedic superhero film. Sadly, none of the humor works and much of it is embarrassingly bad. The characters are bland and cliché. Because of this they never once feel real to us and therefore we don't care about anything that happens with them. The acting is often quite poor and does nothing to help these already blandly written characters. The action scenes lack any fun or excitement and simply go on for much too long. This is not helped by the extremely poor special effects. These effects are so bad that it is incredible to think this movie somehow came out in 2025.

Avoid at all costs.
