“Welcome to the future”

TV MovieActionScience Fiction

A group of young mutants--humans with a genetic variation that gives them superpowers and makes them feared by the population at large--begin training at a school for heroes. Their studies are interrupted when they must rescue one of their number from a mad scientist who can enter others' dreams.

VIBE

This feels like a Saturday morning cartoon brought to life, full of earnest heroes and over-the-top villains. It's a fun, low-fi ride with a surprisingly heartfelt core about acceptance and teamwork.
