Heroes Manufactured Audience Reviews

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
minnienorwalk Pretty interesting flick.The film explores the inside look into the creation of independent comic books in Canada and abroad. The film lays out the sensationalism of pop culture and mass media. Celebrity culture galore and comic book culture galore.Some really neat insight into dc comic book creator Ty Templeton who worked on Batman animated series comics. I also like the bit about Neal Adams, He is a really interesting guy. Seems abit of clown but he gives you the facts about getting involved with the industry and how crumby some people can really be around you.I would give this film a good rating. 7 out of 10. If you like pop culture and sensationalism, watch this film. If not you missed out I guess!!!!
jessbaron I'm huge comic convention follower.I met these guys in Montreal last year. Loved this movie! I especially liked that they really took the time to speak to artists.I wish to see more of Canada in the film.Very much love for Canada and Comic Art and illustration.They have William Shatner, RUN DMC, and many other celebrities.Thank you for supporting Montreal and French-Canadien Art and Comics.Many Artist represented from Montreal Comic Con and Toronto Fan EXPO.I also really like, that there are so many fans! I love this documentary. I am putting it as one of my favorites now! I truly enjoy this movie!!!!
juleskane-41934 Very nice doc put together. A lot of Cameos of Celebs, not real big on that. But the subject was good and they didn't overdo it with Cameos. I almost think they were not needed. It does help move the film a little though, Which I would like to add.Very cool insight into independent comic culture and Scene. I would have wanted to see them get out of just Canada. There is a bigger world of comics out there.But for what they made, it was nicely arranged!I'd give it a 9, but it needs some work on the story as they focus too much on one artist!I recommend it as a good watch!
meltuvik Heroes Manufactured, A Great Documentary, A little long but fun, interesting and educational. The film touches on the lives of Canadian comic book illustrators and how they take on the world of comic conventions as well as the competition of producing and selling their work to fans while growing their audience.The film focuses on a number of artist including both male and female.I personally would have wanted to see more representation of the female voice in comics; however, they seem to have had a limitation on who they interviewed as you don't spot many women at their events. This could have been due to the nature of the industry.The film does focus on Studio Comics and their owner/creator quite a bit as his story seems to be one of the main story arcs. What I found most interesting was the part about Stan Lee where the film opens up with his famous line from Spiderman comics " With great powers, come great responsibility" This theme is introduced early but is brought back towards the end as we see an example of how comic book representation accomplishes this in the real world.The film also touches on Canadian comic book history which was interesting and used quite nicely in the film but dragged a little too long.Overall a great film for Comic book fans, Really enjoyed this!
