Admit it: youve always wanted to see a throw down between Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield) and General Zod (Michael Shannon). Not only would the epic battle span two superhero universes, it would bring together two of the best actors to don tights onscreen. And thats exactly what audiences will finally get with 99 Homes. Except theyre playing different characters. And its not a superhero movie, its about the collapse of the housing market. But otherwise, its basically Zod vs. Spider-Man for the fate of two universes. Sample review (via Film School Rejects):
"Stellar performances from both Garfield and Shannon (who exhibit a strong chemistry between each other that only gets better as the film goes on), a finely made and fiercely bold deconstruction of the price of the American dream, crisply filmed, emotionally effective without being heavy-handed."
