Paragraph 3 and 4: On the third paragraph he gives us a summary of what actually happens in the film, this is done so that people who haven't watched the film yet would have an idea on what it is about therefore could make their mind up if it's worth going to and watching it. The 4th paragraph he gives his opinion of the film. Which he finds the film 'too silly to be taken seriously', he thinks that is is nowhere near spider-man, The X-man, Superman or Batman (Films from the same genre).
