Turbo Kid (2015)
8/10
Heart, not gore, makes Turbo Kid a winner

Warning: Spoilers
Plot; In the post apocalyptic future of 1997, a young man adopts the mantle of his comic book hero and takes on a tyrannical warlord.

Quirky indie flick out of Canada feels like a winking love letter to the Cannon Films catalog from the 1980s. But under its copious amounts of gore (and I do mean copious) beats a real genuine heart, and in the end that's what drives Turbo Kid past the red line. In particular is the performance of actress Laurence LeBoeuf as the infectiously enthusiastic Apple. If you don't fall in love with her, you may want to check and see if you have a heart.
