Jack Shepard a.k.a. "Zoom" is an out-of-shape auto shop owner, far removed from the man who once protected the world's freedom. Reluctantly called back into action by the government, Jack is charged with turning a rag tag group of kids with special powers into a new generation of superheroes to save the world from certain destruction. Based on Jason Lethcoe's popular graphic novel "Zoom's Academy for the Super Gifted."

Critics Consensus: Lacking the punch and good cheer of The Incredibles and Sky High, Zoom is a dull and laugh-free affair.

Richard Propes

The end result is really a film that more sputters than zooms, but survives mainly upon the strength of its committed cast with an obvious chemistry.

The script could've been salvaged if it had a cast to pull it off, but everybody seems like they're just in it for a paycheck.

Although it is aimed at very young children, Zoom doesn't even work as a kid flick. It is truly one of the worst films of the year.

Imagine a mix of Sky High and The Incredibles with all the fun, laughs and clever adventure taken out and you've got director Peter Hewitt's atrocious comic-book fiasco.

Half-baked and poorly executed.
