Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

llbfgt This movie has received generally weak reviews, but I haven't seen (in recent comments, anyway) the fact that, as broadcast on the Disney Channel's Big Movie Show it audience is "'tween-age" children. I watched it with my 6 and 8 year-olds, and they enjoyed it very much, so did I. They didn't understand everything but they did understand the "moral" of the story, that you don't have to be a super hero to help people. I also enjoyed that fact that there was no "bad words" or smarmy kids that sass their parents and each other. I will not by any means watch any of the new Disney theatrical releases of remakes that murder the spirit of the original (I couldn't make it through the opening scene of "That Darn Cat") but I have generally liked (and let my children watch) the Disney Channel Original Movies...Even Cheeta Girls 2 with a romantic subplot did not go over the line of appropriateness for 'tweens (at least mine). If anyone thinks that this is a "lame" or "predictable" movie, fine, it might be, but it satisfies its target audience; the UNJADED 6-12 year old, without offering up smart-mouthed role models.

pumpkinbomb78 I really like'd this. I suspect that they are mutants since, 1.They have super powers without an explination, 2.You can't have powers after 14, most mutants get theur powers around 12 or 13. I loved the villain but he should've had a codename, but the sequel should have a villain with powers(I think they should get their powers by acciendent and the movie be their origin story).

williamunny1 If you want to see a lame and pathetic movie, watch up up and away. It has a predictable plot and a lame plot. Of course you know the kid's going to be normal. Also the way the kid gets the thieves busted To put it short watch something worth your time.

The Extra In The Background Before the review, a brief plot summary: The Marshalls are an average family in an ordinary American town with it's own superheroes, Bronze Eagle, Warrior Woman, and Silver Charge. What most people don't know is that Jim Marshall, his wife Judy, and their eldest son Adam are the town's heroes. Their young daughter Molly also has super-powers, mainly laser vision, but thirteen-year old Scott is nearing his fourteenth birthday, after which one cannot recieve superpowers. However, so as to not disapoint Dad (and their visitng grandpa, Steel Condor), he tricks the family into thinking he can fly and has superstrength. Meanwhile, the seemingly innocent "Earth Protectors" which are giving out CDs about the enviroment to the kids in Scott's class, may not have all the world's best intentions in mind.This film does sound silly and childish. Granted, it's not supposed to entertain adults or recieve an Oscar nomination. But it's really fairly original, showing us all superheroes' weakness: alluminum foil, which alters their structure. The special effects aren't that bad, but the filmmakers respect that and don't exagurate on them.The cast, while slightly forgettable (except for Sherman Hemsley of "All in the Family" and "The Jeffersons") aren't that bad at acting. It's not exactly a riveting potrayl, but it's satisfying. Derek Lee is irritating, but his part is small and not enough to ruin it. Michael J. Pagan does a nice job as Scott Marshall, who is dubbed Warrior Eagle by his parents and does a dorky job at rescuing a woman from a fire. Kevin Conolly was also interesting as the young criminal genious who uses "Earth Protectors" to control minds, against the will of Amy (Jamie Renee Smith), who wants to use the mind control to prevent waste and preserve the enviroment.Superhero fans might want to watch it for the fun references, i.e. Sherman Hemsley's character Steel Condor's grudge against Superman, Man of Steel, The Green Hornet visiting the Marshalls, etc. In fact, Mr. Fantastic and The Invisible Woman cameo at Scott's birthday party!Your kids will like it. Don't expect "Batman" or "Robocop", but if you're in the mood for some nice, doesn't-take-itself-seriously entertainment, you might wanna give it a shot, too.
