Plot

The movie tells the story of Scott Marshall, the son of two great superheroes, Bronze Eagle and Warrior Woman. All of his family members are gifted with superpowers, and he desperately wants powers of his own. To his surprise, however, he doesn't develop any by his 14th birthday - the latest age at which this is possible. To comfort his parents, who would be devastated to find out that their son was ordinary, Scott pretends to have superstrength and the ability to fly. His father, Bronze Eagle, is gifted the power to fly at Supersonic-Speed. His mom, Warrior Woman, is gifted with the Power of Superstrength. His brother, Adam, (A.K.A Silver Charge) is gifted with the power to run at Supersonic-Speed(or as he says he can zip around at The Speed Of Light). He also has Electrical Powers with his Super-Speed. His little sister Molly is gifted with the Power Of Heat Vision and X-Ray Vision, which she uses to bug her None Super Powered Brother Scott,she was shown blasting her mother's Lily Pads and the rule for her powers are "No Laser Vision With Out Supervision".His grandfather has Superstrength and the Ability to Fly, just like his son. And it was told that Scott's Grandma can Morph/or Known as Shape-Shift.

Meanwhile, a group of activists known as the "Earth Protectors" has been giving out CDs about the environment to Scott's classmates. The CDs, however, have a nefarious purpose - brainwashing children. Scott must save the day and rescue the kids - without superpowers. In the end with the help of his best friend Randy and the girl he likes Amy he goes after the villans to rescue his family. He manages to stop the brainwashing using his soccer skills to knock over the computer doing the brainwashing allowing Nina, the girl who created the program but changed sides, to release his parents and brother. His parents easily defeat and capture the villans afterwards and erase their memories of the heroes' identities. Also Amy admits she likes Scott and asks him to a dance... but Adam erases her memories of everything that happened. Scott manages to get his family to agree to let Randy keep his memories and everything returns to normal for the family. Amy doesn't seem to remember she liked Scott and they go back to somewhat hating each other although when its time to pick team captain for soccer she chooses Scott instead of herself surprising him. He chooses her and they end up as co-captains.
