gloriafranklyn A good fantasy superhero film before the superhero genre was overexploited. Check out Kurt Rusell and Kelly Preston as the married duo superhero.
Danielle The main reason I watched this movie was because of Danielle Panabaker, who I love. I may be biased, but I think her character, Layla, was the best in the movie. But anyway, I originally thought this movie was from Disney Channel. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was not. Turns out, I did not know anything about this movie. I remember when I was younger and still watched Disney Channel, they would often play this movie, but I never saw it. Because I thought it was made by Disney Channel, I expected it to be so cheesy and cringey. But it wasn't. It was fun and cute, and it had great messages about equality. It was funny watching Kurt Russell. And I also thought it was funny that one of Danielle Panabaker's earliest movies was about people with superpowers, and how she would later act on The Flash where she plays yet another character with superpowers. It was also hilarious when you first see Sky High school, and you are shown a kid who can freeze people (just like Killer Frost) and a guy who can run super fast named Speed (just like the Flash and all speedsters for that matter).
M_Stoli Saw this movie when it came out in 2005 while I was in college and enjoyed it a lot. Didn't have major expectations which is probably why I ended up enjoying it as much as I did. Always been a sucker for the old Sunday night ABC Disney films and this felt like one of those. (Anyone remember those ABC Originals? Ah the good ole days). Saw it pop up on Netflix recently and decided to introduce it to my daughter last night and was pleasantly surprised again. It was her first 'big kid' film and she loved it. Kurt Russell plays a great Superdad and Kelly Preston is gorgeous as always as Mrs. Stronghold. Fun, simple movie for any age but an especially fun movie to run for the family!
beaconb I always thought this was a made-for-cable-TV movie (was it?). Anyway, one of my daughter's loves this movie, so I watched it with her, and think it is a great little movie! It's fun! The acting is a little over the top, which goes right along with the whole premise of the movie. There aren't too many movies out there that can entertain a wide age range of audience members; this is one. The Pixar movies are the most reliable all-age movies, but this one provides a live-action alternative. You have to have ten lines for a review, so there isn't much more I can add other than it's worth a viewing if you haven't seen it, and it's the kind of movie you can enjoy through multiple viewings.
