Film Description

Rodriguez directed this children's film based on a script by his pre-teen son. The plot concerns a daydreaming youngster named Max whose fantasy stories about the superheroes Lavagirl and Sharkboy inspire the ridicule of everyone from the local bullies to his own mother. When a tornado brings the superheroes into the school to whisk Max off to the planet Drool, only his dreaming skills can save the day. A real kid's active imagination is obviously at work here, because the giddy action flies in all directions with a cheerful disregard for conventions of logic or sanity, and Rodriguez is obviously the right sort of adult to bring such a film to life.
