This short should appeal to anyone who's ever been a comic book fan. The young protagonist is very cute and the live action parts are well executed. You've got to love seeing your favorite super hero jump off the page and show up in your very own bedroom. Most kids would get a kick out of that. I enjoyed the animation. It's comic book style, not full range motion. The ending takes a new twist on dealing with bullies as Kyle channels Captain Courage to help him. I recommend this for ages 9 to 14 and give it 4 out of 5 stars. Reviewed by Julie S., KIDS FIRST! Juror.
