    You know, sometimes a popular type of film, a genre if you will, can get a bit tired. For me, the superhero genre has become very repetitive. In most of these films, there is a standard of predictable villains and a big, end-of-the-world finale that has become predictable and, honestly, unremarkable in these types of films. This does not make them any less enjoyable, especially to the average, casual moviegoer; but for me, I would like a little variety in the six to ten superhero movies that come out each and every year. However, there are exceptions. Just this year saw the releases of 'The Lego Batman Movie (2017)', a hilarious and energized parody of the famed Caped Crusader, and 'Logan (2017)', a haunting neo-western and an emotionally mature conclusion to Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. And I am glad to say that 'Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017)' is another fresh take on the worn-out formula.
