He started to develop his own superpowers and gradually became popular among the kids who treated him badly before. He also finds out that Layla loves him very dearly. He is just a late bloomer.

Director Mike Mitchell skillfully narrates a superhero story with great talent. He blends high school romance with the superpowers of the characters. He touches issues like self esteem, parental expectations, peer pressure and fun filled high school life. The special effects are kind of cheesy, but he has made the theme enjoyable for the kids.

Michael Angarano presents a good performance as Will. He portrays his anxiety very well. His emotions feel real. Among the other characters, talented Lynda Carter, as the school principal is good. This is a good film for the kids. There are no bad words and no sexual content. The action sequences are nice and the narration has good laughs. More over it has good family interaction and a decent ending. Kids will love this film.

We rate this movie ABOVE AVERAGE.
