Skip it unless you've got kids under 10 who need entertaining—this Robert Rodriguez kids' flick is colorful and harmless but aggressively mediocre, leaning on CGI spectacle and groan-worthy puns instead of actual charm or wit. The premise is goofy enough to grab a young audience for 90 minutes, but there's nothing here for adults to latch onto.

Plot

Everyone always knew that Max had a wild imagination, but no one believed that his wildest creations -- a boy raised by watchful great white sharks and a girl with the force of a volcano -- were real. Now, these two pint-sized action masters will show Max that even an ordinary kid has what it takes to be extraordinary.

Director: Robert Rodriguez
