A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I saw this wonderful movie at a film festival, and wondered, why didn't I think of that?? It seemed like I was watching it in real time, these wonderful young actors and entertaining story, developing right in front of the audience. It had a sweet, comical well paced beat and unlike some movies today, kept my complete attention the whole time. It's better entertainment than my IPhone 6! At the end, the audience of over a hundred, maybe more clapped in approval, I can't wait till Hollywood "discovers" J Hanna! When I got home, I had to know more so I did a search for J Hanna, and found this on Wikipedia....Occupation Filmmaker, scriptwriter Years active 1998 - present Notable work I Was a Teenage Superhero Sidekick Awards Hollywood Reel Film Festival: Best Comedy J Hanna is an American film writer and director, best known for his work on the 2013 film 'I Was a Teenage Superhero Sidekick,' screened at the 2015 Boston Sci-Fi Film Festival.[1] The film was favorably reviewed in March, 2015 by Jay Seaver at efilmcritic.com, concluding the film is "charming enough to be a fun little movie." [2] Hanna's work was also screened at the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival,[3] where it won the award for Best Comedy Film.

Super cute and creative way to look at superheroes... Less tent-pole, more back- story... Amazing what J Hanna did on a low budget indie. If you go back to story telling, you can do a super hero movie without big budget effects. Definitely seems like a passion project where blood, sweat and tears were put into it. My favorite was the Frog King played by Andre Antwan who added a definite comedic element to the story. Barrett Mitchell gives a charming turn as Larry/Kid Dynamic who falls for a girl who hates superheroes. But I guess you would too if one of them destroyed your families home. Also fun to see the locations that were used that are in the town that I live. Overall, well done!

I was always a huge Batman fan, but (especially when I was a kid) I was always much more interested in Robin than I was Batman. Which was the point of teenage sidekicks I think-- for kids to see themselves in the comic fighting along side the larger than life superhero. I Was a Teenage Superhero Sidekick is an original look at what happens when the teenage sidekick, Kid Dynamic, grows up and is wondering what he's supposed to do with his life. A feeling that, now that I'm older and just out of college, makes Kid Dynamic just as relatable now as Robin was to me years ago. Kid Dynamic's (or Larry's) journey is a great balance of jokes and real heart. Same goes for the hilarious scenes with Frog King and his personal struggles. It's good to see that even crime fighters can be delightfully screwed up. The animated back stories are a nice touch to building this world where superheros can believable exist, but the acting and writing really sell it. The film is well written and relatable enough that it doesn't need crazy special effects and huge fight scenes to be believable. Overall, a fun movie that looks at superhero's actual character instead of their powers.

Any fan of the superhero genre should see this movie. In a world were major studios are spending millions to choke you into submission with special effects and overdone reboots, this film proves that you can tell an original story about superheroes and still make it about the characters first. I saw this movie at a festival in New York. I actually went to see another film but decided to stay because of the interesting title. I was immediately drawn in by the combination of animation and live action. By choosing to animate the majority of the action scenes, this film avoids taking itself too seriously, and lets the audience focus more on the relationships between the characters. While the technical aspects of the filmmaking are impressive, the performances of the actors cannot be ignored. The whole cast is extremely likable and the chemistry between the two male leads is great. You really believe that these two guys grew up fighting crime together.Overall, this movie succeeds in telling a story that is as original as it is heartfelt.
