SKY HIGH (2005)

MIKE MITCHELL

Plot

Will Stronghold is just your average teenage kid, unfortunately his mum and dad are Commander and Jetstream, the world's greatest superheroes. As Will prepares for hero high school his lack of powers looks set to relegate him to the sidekick class, an appalling thought for his proud and egotistical parents. Sky High is an undemanding delight, a gentle but enjoyably executed satire on the superhero genre and, indeed, Kurt Russell's own action man status, with just enough special effects and adventure for the kids and just enough wit for the adults.
