The movie Sidekick is about a lonely comic book nerd (Norman) who works at some bogus company as there software tech person. One day Norman see something that catch's his eye, and sets out to talk to Victor about his special gift. Normal wants to help him and make him a Superhero, but things turn south.
Thats the jist of the movie. I found this movie at a video store for only 3bucks so i figured it cant be that bad right? YES this movie was really fun to watch ( having nothing to do with DC or Marvel or NY ). This movie is lower budget than most but the acting and special effects were actually pretty good.
There's a few twists and turns that kept me interested and well in awe when the credits rolled.
This movie is most likely harder to find ( maybe amazon ) but if you do happen to find it and love comic and are looking for something different than your average superhero movie, than you must get this movie.
This movie is entirely filmed in Canada and 100% Canadian film, but so is Trailer Park Boys and i love that show. The lead actor who played Normal is a newbie actor but does the part so good, that you might not notice that he's a novice.
This is an underrated film in the USA, and if they were to rerelease it than i think more people would love this movie.
My Final score for the movie is a 8/10 for being totally unique and just plain awesome.
And no i couldnt find any screen shots to add, but i did find a poster.
