I am a little disappointed with this family movie. The trailer looked great and i love Walker and Owen, especially teaming up in a movie together. They could've actually been related they look + act so similar, sadly this is a bit of a mess.
The story revolves around Owen being a superhero who's kid finds his secret lair. Not really very secret then if a 12 year old can find it.
There are so many clichés and stereotypes it's ridiculous. There's the done to death absent Father, the cringey one-liners and most annoying of all, a stupid romantic sub-plot. Why do we need a romantic interest for a kid of 12? It just felt uncomfortable.
The special fx are Ok and Walker is charismatic as hoped, but sadly he is alone, as even Owen is rusty here. And please stop putting Michael Pena in movies. He's annoying in nearly everything.
I didn't hate this movie, but it was very cringey and poor story telling for most part.
Looking at the ratings, i see younger viewers enjoyed this more and i have to say, i'm not at all surprised, it really is aimed at kids. So maybe ask a kid if it's it's good instead. But IMO it was not up to scratch.

I just finished watching it with my 9 yr old and we loved it. Plenty of laughs, fast paced, with fun likeable characters (including the villians lol). It was obviously made for a younger audience and on that note it hits well. The ppl complaining were probably hoping for marvel/DC level action but that's not what this is. It's more on the level of Spy kids but I personally think it was better than those films. We really enjoyed it its definitely one of the better kids movies I've seen in awhile. Dont listen to the bad reviews and give it a chance.
This is a PG kids movie along the lines of Spy Kids so it should be rated as such. Had some laughs and the kids enjoyed it. It's a 7, The people comparing it to Iron Man should give their head a shake. It's a kids movie and not a bad one.
For a kids movie I'd say it's pretty enjoyable. I loved the comedy, and the action sequences were pretty cool. The gadgets they used were impressive and I enjoyed how they each had their own gimmick and learned how to use it. The acting could use some work but it was still fun to watch. I liked the casting I loved Walker Scobell after The Adam Project so it was nice seeing him playing other roles. I wouldn't watch it again but it's a good family movie for a movie night.
To be honest, fell for the trailer, i was like this one ought to be a good one.
The moment it started till the very end, nothing, it offers nothing but just a worse superhero / ironman inspired movie.
Michael Peña, as funny bad guy, but that didnt work too, cause they forgot to add humor to the script after casting him.
Owen Wilson, well................... let's just forget about him
If you watch it, it will be okish, if you pass it on, nothing to loose.
