Review: This is a documentary about four people who came to Hollywood to be actors. Instead, they now make their living walking the streets of Hollywood Blvd., dressed as superheroes and earning money through tips by posing for pictures with people passing by. We see their hardships as they try to make it big in show business and try to balance their personal lives with their acting careers.
It was interesting to follow these individuals through their typical workday, meeting their significant others and hearing what they think. We also see their auditions for acting gigs and, for some, meetings with their therapists.
This film is a breath of fresh air from the movies that the Hollywood machine has been spitting out. The cinematography was excellent. The movie was well done and flowed very well—I left the movie feeling like I had learned something.
