The child actors are uniformly decent as well.
"Zoom" also features a chubby kid who can blow up his body like a balloon, who for some strange reason is played by a normal-size kid (Spencer Breslin) in a fat suit.Īllen's biggest talent is making horrible comedies into tolerable ones, and he does his best here, delivering each line sincerely, including one or two that might cause a laugh. Their powers are symbolic of the lack of creativity of the film as a whole - there's an invisible boy, a teenage girl who can move objects with her mind and a first-grader with super strength. Tim Allen stars as Zoom, a washed-up hero called back into action to train a group of young superkids, who must save the planet from an approaching evil. The slightly-better-than-mediocre "Sky High," which came out last year, is brimming with imagination by comparison. The inferiority of this film is especially noticeable because there have been so many recent movies featuring young superheroes that blow "Zoom" away. (Wendy's hamburgers? You mean McDonald's and Burger King wouldn't return your calls?) Even the product placement is completely third rate. "Zoom" is a C-list production in every possible way, from the actors and the special effects to the music and the script.
