Xeleration

About This Movie

Xeleration has this gritty, slightly pulpy vibe that feels right at home in the late '90s, despite being from 2019. The premise is interesting—an orphaned high school kid finding his grandfather's superspeed device. The pacing is a bit haphazard, but it adds to that DIY charm. Practical effects are actually pretty fun; you can see the old-school influence shine through. The performances are earnest, though some of the dialogue is a bit clunky. It captures that sense of youthful adventure, with a villain in Bill Golden who’s more quirky than menacing. Overall, it's a solid mix of action and sci-fi, with a dash of nostalgia that collectors might appreciate.
