The idea of a high school for superheroes will appeal to teens and preteens, who struggle powerlessly with petty authoritarians, bullying peers, and their own rampant hormones, and "Sky High" spotlights young Will Stronghold (Michael Angarano, "Lords of Dogtown"), the son of top-of-the-heap superheroic couple the Commander (Kurt Russell, "Tango & Cash") and Josie Jetstream (Kelly Preston, "View from the Top"). Unfortunately, though he's about to be dropped into the midst of kids who can stretch, turn to living stone, or shoot fire, Will has yet to develop any powers at all--and may never develop them. His development anxieties (and some entertaining metaphors for high school social hierarchies) contrast with a bubbling plot by an old foe of the Commander's to destroy Sky High and all of superhero-dom. "Sky High" has a great supporting cast (including Bruce Campbell, "Army of Darkness"; Dave Foley, "NewsRadio"; Lynda Carter, "Wonder Woman"; and Cloris Leachman, "Young Frankenstein") and a handful of funny, offhand bits, but the bulk of the movie is bland and obvious. Younger kids may not mind the clumsy action scenes, generic dialogue, and tacky production design, but even comic-book-loving teenagers will label "Sky High" bargain-basement. "--Bret Fetzer"
