1. Usual cheap hook of young teens facing bullies (stereotypically always bigger & meaner looking). Script designed for the mostly under 15 audience so main actors fit into that category w/usual mix of behaviors, genders, character types (nerds, athletes), race mix. 2. Lots of filming goofs (e.g. kitchen lights go out, but are on in next scene; 3 kids riding bikes; they all fall off; bikes disappear in next scene) which indicate to me little creative oversight + cheap production. 3. Over reliance on the age old human fears of things different. Always an us vs. them; same vs. not same mentality. Large spidery thingies; parasitic worms w/large mouth & many teeth; dark underground tunnels w/creeping vines to entangle you; lots of darkness. 4. More of the same old corporate/government power ethos of experimenting on people to create super anything. 5. Not creative dumbing down of super psychic abilities such as the overused & tiresome hook of controlling people's minds (don't we wish), and even more so control matter (amusingly w/out stretched hands w/screaming tossed in to represent painful effort). Neither one of which would get a passing grade from any half way intelligent middler schooler. Conclusion: Too much of a repeat of plot, character done many times before. F for creative writing. Passable grade if under 15 yrs old.
