The superhero genre is one that refuses to go away. It’s a genre that’s always been with us ever since Batman was calling Robin his good chum back in the 1940s. Since then though the superhero snowball has tumbled down the hill, further and further until it’s become so big we’re finding the number of superhero movie releases in a year approaching double figures!

This year isn’t showing any signs of melting the big ball of frozen water as we’re being bombarded by the likes of Thor, The Green Lantern, and Captain America. Over the years though, I’ve found that superhero movies have slipped a little and the movies aren’t quite up to scratch. In recent years the only superhero movies worth mentioning are Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and possibly Kick Ass, if you can class that as a superhero flick.
