Up, Up, and Away! (2000)
Ah, superheroes. What’s not to love? People with amazing abilities and cool costumes acting selflessly to help their fellow man. It’s perfect! So certainly, Disney Channel’s own superhero movie Up, Up, and Away! will be a slam dunk! What’s that? The superheroes have no urgency to help people, the budget is so low they can’t really show cool powers, and the costumes are so bad it hurts the eyes? Well, uh, with any luck an under-aged superhero will be around to electroshock the bad memories of this film from my brain and just leave the stuff we thought was fun. Like the foil thing! That was fun, right? Or was it a cheap workaround? Hmmmm….
Luke settles a score and finds a mortal enemy.
