Review of Sky High (2005) by D M — 03 Sep 2009
Surprisingly good. I had never heard of this and rented it on a whim but was happy to find both Bruce Campbell and Dave Foley among the cast. The story follows a boy and his friends on their first day of high school.
This school is only for superheros, and the expectations for the main character are extra high because both his parents are top-tier superheroes. His superpowers have yet to materialize, so he is relegated to "sidekick" status.
Soon he starts to make it with the in-crowd, and then other typical high school movie stuff happens. Much better than the similarly-themed Zoom: Academy for Superheroes. Despite being Disney and the definite propaganda thrown in here and there, this is actually a very entertaining movie.
