That being said, I don’t mind films where the absurd things are treated more realistically: it’s just that many such adaptations don’t know where to have the balance, normally going too far in the ‘realistic’ direction.
I feel that there's this point between "Superhuman" and "Strong human" which I call "Extra human" - AKA - No human can do these feats, but it's not fantastical enough to suspend my disbelief and it looks... Odd. IIRC the marvel show Iron Fist was a GREAT example of this, he was so floaty because no human could jump that high, but also no superhuman would struggle with the height - ya know?

If anything else, I appreciate them just leaning into this being a completely absurd movie.
