ADAM AVENGER

Description:

KIDS FIRST!® Adult Juror Comments:

Good storyline, well acted, good message. The young boy holds onto a fantasy idea about his superhero powers that don't hold up when push comes to shove. On top of that, the Mom he idolizes isn't quite what he remembers or wants her to be. Sweet bonding between the Dad and the boy. Good use of animation with the live action.
