Sky High (2005) 7/10

Starring : Michael Angarano, Kurt Russell, Kelly Preston, Danielle Panabaker, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Bruce Campbell
Director : Mike Mitchell
Running Time : 96 mins

Will Stronghold (Angarano) is the son of renowned superheroes The Commander (Russell) and Jetstream (Preston), but when it comes to his turn to attend the famous superhero high school, Sky High, poor Will has to face his first days without any powers, while trying not to let his parents know that he’s been deemed only fit for sidekick duty.

This was a fun movie, with enough entertainment value for both children and grownups alike. It’s very similar to Zoom, which came out shortly after and, because I saw Zoom first, this kind of spoiled things for me, but it’s in own right this is a great kids movie which will keep even the grumpiest kid quiet for a while.
