Review of Lightspeed

Lightspeed (2006 TV Movie)
1/10
Who wants to be a super zero...?
22 March 2007
Warning: Spoilers
Something got lost in the translation... From what I was able to gather from the series WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERHERO?, the contest winner was supposed to star- or at least appear- in a telemovie based on his (or her) character. The rightful winner of this "competition" (who called himself Major Victory, and who seemed to understand the super-hero concept better than anyone involved in this debacle) wasn't going to be allowed to win, however: Stan Lee, bending over backward for his choice, Fat Momma, saw to that. In the end, his disregard for his own rules resulted in "Lightspeed" "winning" the "contest." Maybe I blinked at the wrong moment, but I don't recall seeing the guy who created the title character anywhere in the movie. Which isn't a bad thing, in this case, but denying a co-creator his fair share of the split isn't exactly kosher, now... is it? (As the foregoing clearly demonstrates, I'm more than capable of putting my foot in my mouth. The winner of the telecontest was called FEEDBACK, not LIGHTSPEED. I goofed. Unfortunately, I don't really care one way or the other. My half-baked review/comment stands. So there.)
