How sad is this?

As Good As It Gets

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Sky High is set in a time where superheroes are likely to be your neighbors and classmates. William Stronghold is not a top tier superhero, just a minor one which would be alright except he is the son of Commander and Jetstream- the most awesome Superhero pair(played with grace by Kelly Preston and Kurt Russell). The film is well paced, funny and heartwarming and involves all the tribulations that high school kids suffer from- rejection, bullying, popularity, infatuation. The young actors are all good and the special effects are not so flashy they become centerstage and yet good enough to be believable. Sky High is a great superhero movie which surprised me. You should definitely check it out if you like fun and heartwarming movies with a dash of humor.

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).

Super-heroes fight bullies and injustice yet the Sky High school for children of Super-heroes is not only tolerant of bullies and injustice, they practice it.Therefore it is obvious to me that the writers do not understand what super-heroes are really like. A school for (children of) super-heroes should be an example of respect, appreciation, cooperation and things like that and the world needs good examples of that. Instead this movie shows too much of the wrong type of behavior with not enough of the desirable behavior.There some interesting moments, especially when the principal (Lynda Carter) makes her entrance.

Will is getting ready for his first day of high school, his parents are super heroes who are fighting with giant robots to save the town and he is looking forward to arrive at his new school to discover what powers he has left from his father and mother as inheritance. Together with his friends he goes by bus but cannot walk up there so it turns into a plane that will take them there. Here he meets beautiful Gwen witch he will fall for her later. At a class each of those present have to show their powers in front of professor but surprisingly Will seem to possess no super-natural power when all his teammates have a hidden talent. So students are divided into two groups and Will be part of a group of people without any special skill. Falling prey to Gwen's charms he departs from Layla his best girl-friend since elementary school when not attending the meeting that they agreed because Gwen was at his home. All school learn the true identity of Gwen, who has a secret plan and Will after he discovers his powers will have to fight against her along with his friends to save the school and his parents.The film seems to be a kind of X-men or a modern Harry Potter pretty well done and it's a movie for all age categories.
