Reception[edit]
Michael Rechtshaffen of the Los Angeles Times, described the movie Sign Gene: The First Deaf Superheroes as one with a, "fresh, unique filmmaking voice" and a “fast-paced potpourri of stock footage combined with sign-language and stroboscopic action sequences performed by a deaf cast, video effects simulating grainy, scratchy film stock and that aforementioned all-enveloping sound mix, with an end result that proves as wildly inventive as it is empowering."[7]
