VERY ENTERTAINING SLAPSTICK ACTION

I started this about a year ago and dropped it within the first episode, only to be pulled back through YouTube clickbait, deciding to give it more of a chance, and found it very very entertaining. Leave the film critic in your brain behind and just relax to have some deep belly laughs. Ignore all the reviews and just enjoy it.

If you suspend disbelief and accept it for what is - a live-action cartoon, it becomes very enjoyable. It's a battle between the forces of good and evil, all the superheroes being women, from a dysfunctional family that still manages to stay together despite all their disagreements - what's not to like? It's a bit of a spoof of Marvel superhero movies with an inverted Adamms Family - Morticia becomes a red-headed do-gooding siren in leathers on a fast bike, Wednesday becomes a cute 'not as naive as she looks' returned orphan from Mongolia, there is the fat brother, the weakling uncle, the formidable grandma (shades of Kung Fu Hustle, one of the best cult movies I have ever seen), the quite normal dad who is a little bemused at finding himself in the midst of all the chaos, and assorted other support actors, with a brooding, mysterious, conflicted villain that one almost hopes will get redeemed towards the end.

Of course - it IS all over the show, with a lot of secondary characters each with their own quirks, and considerable ham acting, but it does not take itself too seriously. You can see the actors mentally winking at the audience.

Having watched Bong Soon (?) some time ago, I can't compare side by side, but I enjoyed that very much too. This one is not bad, just very different. It's a pity so many people just make it out as garbage, and it got so many bad reviews, because there's a bit of a cliffhanger and the series has potential for follow-up seasons, IMHO.
