Power comes in all sizes and in Robert Rodriguez‘s We Can Be Heroes it’s the kids of Earth’s superheroes! Netflix has released one final Trailer for their upcoming family adventure which is being called the spiritual sequel to The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl. It also has a brand new release date…Christmas Day!
The film centres around when alien invaders kidnap Earth’s superheroes, their children must team up and learn to work together if they want to save their parents and the world.
Like a lot of Rodriguez films the concept of the films are interesting, but sadly nothing more. This looks seriously bad, if the targeted audience (children) like what their seeing the film has done it’s job.

When alien invaders kidnap Earth’s superheroes, their kids are whisked away to a government safe house.

Missy teams up with the rest of the superkids to escape their mysterious government babysitter, Ms. Granada (Priyanka Chopra Jonas).
