In a world where Earth's superheroes are overpowered and captured during an alien invasion, the fate of humanity falls into the hands of their children. The 2020 film "We Can Be Heroes" explores the challenges and triumphs of these young heroes as they band together to save their planet.
The story kicks off with a tense scene in the exosphere, where American superhero Miracle Guy is dispatched to investigate a satellite that has mysteriously been damaged. Unbeknownst to him, the vessel he approaches is not what it seems; it is a colossal alien ship swarming with numerous mini alien crafts, leading to a disastrous and comedic turn when Miracle Guy is ultimately incapacitated. His partner, Techno, attempts to catch him but ends up in a perilous situation as they both tumble toward Earth.
Meanwhile, on Earth, Miracle Guy's daughter, Missy, awakens to shocking news about her father's peril. Despite her father’s promise to stay out of action after her mother left, the situation escalates, forcing him to abandon his oath. Missy, feeling powerless as she lacks any superhuman abilities, is coerced by Heroics agents to join her classmates in a safe underground fort. There, she meets other children of renowned heroes, each boasting unique powers – from drawing to unpredictable elemental abilities.
As the adult superheroes are systematically taken captive by the aliens, Missy’s classmates discover her struggles with feeling inadequate. They soon discern that Missy’s friend, Ojo, possesses an unexpected ability: the power to predict the future through her drawings. This revelation becomes crucial when they realize the aliens will soon invade their hiding place.
The Escape Plan
Driven by urgency, Missy takes charge and formulates a plan to escape the fortified HQ. Their mission is fraught with challenges, including miscommunication and unexpected lockdowns which hinder their chance at escaping. However, by using their diverse abilities – including combat finesse and cunning tactics – the group ultimately manages to evade capture.
Their flight leads them to Missy's grandmother’s house, where they undergo intense training to prepare for the impending alien invasion. Working on their teamwork and individual skills proves imperative as they race against time, now fully understanding the gravity of their situation.
Clash with the Aliens
Upon infiltrating the alien mothership, the young heroes quickly discover that not everything is as it appears. They face new threats, including giant tentacles and alien officers. In a display of quick thinking and cooperation, Missy effectively leads her classmates to battle while attempting to locate their captured parents.
Conflict arises within the group as differing opinions about how to confront the invasion surface. Wildcard, another child hero, chooses to split from the group, but still, all paths converge on the pyramid-like structure containing their parents and the alien’s main control room.
Unmasking the Real Threat
As the children navigate through the chaotic landscape of the ship, they uncover deeper layers of deceit, discovering that their trusted director, Ms. Granada, is not who she seems—she is also an alien. This discovery propels the children into a scramble to stop her and save their parents, culminating in an epic showdown within the alien stronghold.
Through clever planning and sheer determination, the young heroes manage not only to save themselves but thwart the impending alien attack. They cleverly manipulate the elements of the alien technology and prove that teamwork, even against overwhelming odds, is key.
In a dramatic twist, it’s revealed that the aliens had been testing them, assessing their potential as heroes. Ojo’s insights, the resolve of Missy, and the skills of all the children earn them a chance to form an alliance with the aliens. They are offered a promise of support for protecting their planet and others in the galaxy.
"We Can Be Heroes" emphasizes themes of courage, friendship, and the importance of believing in one’s abilities. The film ends on an uplifting note, with the children joyfully reunited with their parents after their arduous adventure. This tale of young heroes navigating insecurities and uniting to overcome a formidable threat draws a parallel to the classic struggle between good and evil, all while offering a fresh perspective through the eyes of the next generation.
In the end, viewers are left to ponder the significance of teamwork and the bond of family, no matter how superhuman the expectations may be. The film stands as a testament to the strength that lies within all of us, waiting to be unlocked through unity and perseverance.
