HENRY DANGER: THE MOVIE cover image
Henry Danger: The Movie is entertaining with its compelling action-filled plot, character development and humor. It has gorgeous costumes and intricate and unique sets that are enhanced with outstanding special effects.

The storyline follows Superhero Henry Hart (Jace Norman), also known as Kid Danger, and is a sidekick to Captain Man (Cooper Barnes) who leaves him behind in Swellview as he goes in search of a new identity in Dystopia. Henry has his own sidekick, Jasper (Sean Ryan); although Jasper thinks he's the superior one. In Henry's multiverse adventure, he meets Missy (Glee Dango), the ultimate Kid Danger super fan, who gets him to fight crime with her as well. Ultimately, Henry is tested to fight the most challenging villains across the multi-universes. Will he save the day?

This movie has an amazing plot with lots of funny moments that kept me engaged. The character Schwoz Schwartz (Michael D Cohen) keeps changing accents which is extremely hilarious. Ella Anderson (Piper Hart) is an outstanding villain with her menacing and mysterious character portrayal. I love Jasper and Henry's dynamic and overall growth throughout the movie - Henry goes from being a little bit self-centered and not caring about Jasper, to understanding Jasper struggles and eventually appreciating him. I also love the costumes, especially Ella's vampire outfit, as it embodies her bold character very well. Missy and her sister Gemma's (Breeze Dango) outfits are authentic to what a kid today would wear. I adore the detail in Missy's nightclub outfit, especially the addition of the gummy bear hair clips. The sets for dystopia are incredible and really stand out with their attention to detail. One of my favorite details are the cracks in the bricks as it makes them clearly look very worn down. Frankie's nightclub sets are quite something with their bright colors. The CGI is outstanding and pairs well with the lighting. Some short falls are the pace, which is a little bit too fast; I felt at times that the storyline isn't really explained in depth and becomes confusing.

The film's message is that you don't always have to have special abilities to be a hero and that together as a team you can always get any job or challenge accomplished.

I give Henry Danger: The Movie 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. It is currently airing on Nickelodeon and Paramount+.
