Low-tech superhero-action-dramedy Save the World is a theatrical escapist treat. A crew of five superheroes and one superheroine (with super armor, naturally) has been working together for almost eight years, continually saving the world from evildoers and natural disasters. But now they face an unknown dark power that seems to know just how to hit them hardest. Writer Chris Kipiniak's dialogue is pure comic-book melodrama, and the committed performers, in their flashy costumes, pull it off with straight-faced aplomb. Besides, who wants their superheroes waxing poetic when there are worlds to be saved?
