Carefully pitched to be watchable by the Breakfast Club generation and their young kids.

While originality is hardly the film's strongest suit, its agreeable mix of knowing spoof and kid-pleasing fantasy makes it considerably more engaging than some of the 'straight' superhero blockbusters we've suffered recently.

My 12-year-old self would have liked this movie a lot. The 25-year-old me likes it a bit more than he cares to admit.

It's inoffensive and sports a positive 'be yourself' message that's obvious enough to be seen from space without benefit of hero-vision, but really, there's very little that's super about it.

Smartly written and sprightly played, Sky High satisfies with a clever commingling of spoofy superheroics, school-daze hijinks, and family friendly coming-of-age dramedy.

Dec 02, 2011I thought this was just okay. Kids will really enjoy the funny momenst and a superhero movie made just for them, but the parents will most likely fall asleep. It had cheap effects sadly and the acting was pretty horrible. However, the concept for the movie will be enjoyed by kids and the plot is actually not as bad as I thought. But to conclude, this movie was okay, but not even close to how good it could've been.Bradley W Super Reviewer

Jun 25, 2011While a different story, talented in-depth acting, and eye-popping visuals are actively present, the typical overdrawn relationship drama of a typical high school inflicts a rancid taste in this film's development.Jackson W Super Reviewer

Jun 23, 2011I didn't really think I'd like this film but it's one of my favourite films. It's underrated and really quite good. A must see!Bethany M Super Reviewer

Jun 12, 2011Oh man, this was lame. Superhero kids who go to high school in the sky? Somebody scream cheesy. And school for superhero kids? Didn't X-Men already do that? Why is Kurt Russell in this? Why?!Dillon L Super Reviewer
