Sky High (2005)
6/10
Soaring kids movie
14 August 2005
Will Stronghold(Michael Angarano) is the son of The Commander(Kurt Russell) and Jetstream(Kelly Preston) who are two of the most famous superheros in a world where superheros are everyday icons. Will, who doesn't know his power, attends Sky High(a school for superheros) as a freshman, and ends up becoming a sidekick, which socially makes him a "loser". He deals with internal struggles as well as girls and bullies while evil lurks from a distance.

The movie included a nice performance from rising actor Michael Angarano and consisted a nice family-oriented story that everyone can enjoy. It was funny at many parts but wasn't consistent enough to be considered a "great" comedy. It also consisted a few good performances from new actors like Danielle Panabaker and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. The movie definitely won't bore you although it is not amazing. Overall, the idea is original and the movie was entertaining.

I recommend this movie.
