Two sociopaths figure out superpowers, and eventually fight to hash out their grudge. It was hard to cheer for anyone at times, honestly, though only one is a serial killer harboring the delusion that he was chosen by God, which is always an easy heebie-jeebie inducer to me.

3.75 stars — The plot is simple but propelled by intriguingly twisted characters, who, if somewhat predictable, certainly entertain.
