The comic was awesome, but a live action movie? I was excited that they were making a zoom movie, but it really was lame. They ruined the whole story line and gave no room for character development. It feels rushed, and that they did massive re-writes to make it different then Disney’s movie Sky High.

They should have kept with the original comic book story and instead of a live action movie it should of been an animated one. It would have been 100% better if it was animated with 2d animation (hand drawn). Jason Lethcoe's character design is amazing and would have made an ANIMATED -Zoom’s academy an awesome classic animated movie!!

I had never read the comics so I enjoyed it okay. It really is a kids movie, and all the kids I know liked it.

Yeah, but being a” kids movie" doesn’t exempt it from being labeled a bad movie. The Goonies was a kid’s movie and its a great film it's a classic.

So kids movie or not there is no excuse. A bad move is a bad movie no matter who it’s meant for.
