a5c7b9f00b Former superhero Jack is called back to work to transform an unlikely group of ragtag kids into superheroes at a private academy. Former superhero Jack Shepard, also known as Captain Zoom, is called back to work to transform an unlikely group of ragtag kids into a new generation of superheroes. At a privacy academy, he trains Dylan, a 17-year-old boy who can turn invisible; Summer, a 16-year-old girl with telekinetic powers; Tucker, a 12-year-old boy with the power to enlarge any part of his body; and Cindy, a 6-year-old girl with super strength. My boyfriend and I went to watch this movie because it was free and we figured it would be a mildly entertaining waste of 90 minutes…and that's exactly what we were in for.<br/><br/>It COULD have been a promising movie…well maybe not "promising", but decent. Yes, let's say decent. Unfortunately the whole movie was nothing but average. Now, there were parts that were laugh-out-loud funny, but they were VERY few and far between. Mostly you had dialogue that no one cared about, kids that filled specific "quotas", and a nonexistent plot.<br/><br/>Let me explain. Any CHILD that was taken to watch this could even tell that none of the adults were in this because they cared. It was one of two reasons, either so that they could show a movie that they were in to their young children who weren't old enough to see mommy and daddy (or grandpa) in anything else OR because they couldn't find any other work, but had a big enough name to MAYBE draw moviegoers (*cough cough* Chevy Chase *cough*). And the younger actors were only in it for exposure. There can be no way that any of the four besides Spencer Breslin will look back on this as one of the highlights of their career. –And one more thing. I do believe, nowadays Tim Allen can't make a movie WITHOUT Spencer Breslin. Which has to have contributed in part to his downfall, considering how unspectacular Spencer has been up to now (enough with the overacting please!). Anyway… Oh, and as for Kevin Zegers, BOTH my boyfriend and I walked out of that movie saying that he HAD to have owed someone a favor, because that is the ONLY reason that I can see that he needed to do that movie. The boy did NOT need the exposure and he certainly has no young'n's to impress. And really with his part being how it was, they could have cast any old early twenties, pretty boy. I mean really Kevin did fine with what he had, but he didn't have much. (Run boy! Run!)<br/><br/>But truthfully, I can't blame the actors for not caring with dialogue such as (*spoiler*), "Must save Connor!" (which was truly laughable…and not because it was supposed to be funny), who would?<br/><br/>And the plot? Wait, what? There was a plot? Oh, I thought this was just a Tim Allen promo. But seriously, the plot goes like this (possible *spoilers*): Once upon a time there were these superheroes, one goes bad and kills all but his brother and gets sent to another dimension because of it. Years later, he's coming back and is a threat to "all of the world" and so they must take a group of misfit "superhero-etts" and make them "good" enough to defeat him. And to do this they recruit the brother who is now old, worn out, and very reluctant. Hardship and sarcasm ensues.<br/><br/>And dear lord is the ending battle just perplexingly short. It makes it seem as if the whole time, the kids weren't needed and this "horribly bad guy" is just a little puppy that needs a hug. *shrug*<br/><br/>So really, not very good, though not the worst I've seen. There were a small handful of redeemingly funny bits, such as (*spoiler*) little Cindy in a bunny suit. No one (including my boyfriend) can deny that THAT was freakin' cute.<br/><br/>All in all, watch it if you wish, just know what you are getting yourself into. I like a superhero movie as much as the next person, but not when it is this bad. Zoom for me is a contender for the worst superhero movie ever. Peter Hewitt has done some good films, The Borrowers is delightful and Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey is one of the best sequels out there, but his direction here is very inept. Hewitt's direction is not the worst asset of Zoom though. The script is dire, while the juvenile humour gets embarrassing fast, the best it gets is the gag reel at the end and even that was lame. The story is lame and predictable, the action is special-effects driven mostly and it is badly done and the pace is rushed. The acting is simply terrible, Tim Allen is a talented actor but he goes through the motions, Courtney Cox is wasted and Chevvy Chase is simply embarrassing. All in all, just dismal and a chore to sit through. 1/10 Bethany Cox If August has turned the children in your life into Bored Girl and Fidget Boy, you could find worse ways to keep them entertained.
