The film opens with narration as Rendel (Kristofer Gummerus) tells us he is the "line between good and evil." The story has a plot of Rendel going after the evil pharmaceutical company VALA, testing its NH 25 vaccine on "innocent children" outside of Europe which hasn't approved the drug. It is apparently fatal and not sure what is the whole point.
There is a subplot of how Rendel came into being. We know it is a subplot because Kurikka (Tero Salenius) who is dead is now alive and well. We also are given a clue that "Rendel" may be an anagram...and it is, but we are given another source for the name.
This is a Finnish film. Rendel is similar to Daredevil. The film had a decent soundtrack and swagger. What I did learn is that the Finns are no slaves to fashion with most people having a passion for black jeans. The film is dubbed and is also subtitled, but not all speaking was subtitled and when it was it didn't match what was spoken. When it wasn't raining, it was snowing.
The film is open for a sequel. There is a reporter in the film that pops in and out but her character lacked development. The dubbing could have been better. Slightly better than Italian/Japanese imports.
