How I Became a Super Hero is entertaining, funny, and genuinely engaging.

RTDeciderJul 28, 2021

The Belgian actor and comedian Benoit Poelvoorde is a delight here as Monte Carlo, channeling a pleasantly soused David Niven.

RT48 HillsJul 16, 2021

How I Became has decent intrigue that turns into explanatory backstory, plus incorporation of the superhero thing to illustrate a psychological gamut...

RTCommon Sense MediaJul 14, 2021

While the story itself has its fair share of originality, some of the tropes are way past the point of exhaustion.
