When alien invaders capture Earth's superheroes, their kids must learn to work together to save their parents - and the planet.
We Can Be Heroes is a family-friendly superhero adventure from Robert Rodriguez that delivers colorful visuals and a fun premise for younger audiences, but struggles with a thin plot, uneven performances from its mostly child cast, and a formulaic alien-invasion narrative. The cinematography has Rodriguez's signature vivid style, but the story and ending are predictable and derivative of better superhero ensemble films.
