Movies like Defendor

While Watchmen is a more mainstream superhero film, it explores the psyche of vigilantes, much as Defendor does. Its darker tone and complex characters who operate outside the law to enforce their own sense of justice appeal to viewers looking for a more serious, thought-provoking superhero narrative.

Kick-Ass shares Defendor's dark comedy and unique take on the superhero genre, where ordinary individuals don superhero attire to fight crime without superpowers. This action-packed film follows the life of a high school student turned vigilante, giving a similar blend of humor and street-level heroics.

Hancock offers a deconstructed superhero tale with a comedic twist, much like Defendor. It follows a misunderstood anti-hero who is trying to do good despite his flawed personality and unconventional methods.

Just like Defendor, Super delves into the life of an average man who dons the mantle of a superhero to fight crime. Its darkly comedic tone and exploration of real-life vigilantism offers viewers a raw and offbeat look at a man’s quest for personal justice.

In line with Defendor's tone, Mystery Men presents a team of inept amateur superheroes with bizarre powers who band together to save the day. It's a comedic satire of the superhero genre that pokes fun at the very idea of caped crusaders.
