A youth film dressed in a superman's coat is essentially a campus comedy genre. Even if you are a superman, you have troubles about love, you will be jealous, you will encounter campus bullying, you will be rebellious, you will get along with your friends, you will have external challenges, you will betray and deceive, because you are just a young superman .
Michael Angrano, a kid who has played the King of Kung Fu, is hard to see on the big screen recently, but he is very American in his outfit. The female protagonists inside are all young and beautiful, the villain Mary Elizabeth Winstead is really innocent and feels like Xiaojiabiyu. The heroine Danielle Panabeck is full of youth and has an indescribable temptation. Even the supporting characters such as Mouse Mei and Ice Girl are all attractive, and it can be said to be a feast for the eyes.
As the son of a superhero, but did not inherit the superpowers of his parents, Will had a miserable life in the high school specializing in training Superman. Being teased by others, looked down upon by others, and entered the Superman Follower Academy, but fortunately, a group of friends persisted. Having awakened his superpowers, he fell into the gentle trap of the electromagnetic girl and gradually alienated him from his friends. Finally, she discovered the electromagnetic girl's conspiracy, and teamed up with her friends to defeat the villain and saved the entire school. What a routine plot, what a familiar taste.
In the beginning, the aerial high school was quite creative, and the rest of the super powers were not displayed much, after all, it was not the main selling point. The cheerleaders who can clone, the fire man, the rubber man, the Ashi who will turn into liquid, the heroine who controls the plants, the sonic man, the luminous man, the girl who turns into a mouse...there are all kinds of fun abilities.
It is about the growth of youth and the various troubles that people encounter. People always have to learn to grow up by themselves. A relaxing popcorn movie, suitable for casual watching.
