Unknown Origins

In Madrid, Spain, a mysterious serial killer ruthlessly murders his victims by recreating the first appearance of several comic book superheroes. Cosme, a veteran police inspector who is about to retire, works on the case along with the tormented inspector David Valentín and his own son Jorge Elías, a nerdy young man who owns a comic book store.
Wow! As others have noted, one starts watching a detective movie with only moderate expectations, as its Trakt rating does a beautiful job of disguising this terrific superhero film. Several really good jokes which hit the target if you know España. Well made; it's not up to the big budget Hollywood superhero films, but for a medium budget film it's absolutely fine. Excellent story (the villain is unknown before he's revealed) and a message which is so true for modern Spain. Excellent soundtrack befitting this genre. Loved it!
