Welcome to March, a month in which superpower-themed movies and series are all the rage. We’ve gotExtraordinaryreturning this weekfor a series sequel (one ofDisney+’s forthcoming must-watch shows), while the new Netflix no.1 movie is a superpower-themed sequel – although I don’t expect it’ll stay on the top spot for very long – that has fans divided.

Code 8: Part IIis, as the title makes more than clear, the second part in theCode 8movie double whammy, and it’s quickly risen to the top spot since exclusively becoming available on Netflix since 28 February. TheRotten Tomatoes score isn’t too pretty, with just 67%from critics – but fans typically jump between awarding  1-star and 5-stars in their assessment on the same site (giving it a current 72% average).

Code 8: Part II, meanwhile, doesn’t yet seem to have lived up to the original movie’s more settled score – which landed arespectable 81% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes– although, again, fans were equally if not more so divided about the 2019 original. It seems like one of those movie series where you’re either going to love it or leave it.
