David W Jul 28 Should have been a straight home run with Chuck, Mako and child actor Brandis but with Aaron Norris at the helm it just never gets beyond another Karate Kid wannabe. I'd have loved to see Chuck in far more films with a decent director rather than utilising his brother. The heights that Chuck could have reached were never fully realised as a result and I say that as a huge fan of Chuck.

See more Travis S Jun 3 Sidekicks is a heartwarming, action-packed gem that deserves every one of its five stars! This family-friendly martial arts flick, starring Chuck Norris and Jonathan Brandis, delivers a perfect blend of humor, heart, and high-kicking excitement. The story follows Barry, a daydreaming teen who escapes his struggles with asthma and bullying through vivid fantasies where he fights alongside his idol, Chuck Norris. The movie shines with its uplifting message about self-confidence and perseverance, wrapped in a fun, early-'90s vibe. Brandis gives a relatable and charming performance as the underdog you can’t help but root for, while Norris is at his charismatic best, playing a larger-than-life version of himself with a knowing wink. The action scenes, though lighthearted, are well-choreographed, and the training montages are pure nostalgic joy. Beau Bridges and Mako add depth to the supporting cast, bringing warmth and wisdom to the story. What sets Sidekicks apart is its ability to balance campy fun with genuine emotional beats, making it a feel-good classic for kids and adults alike. It’s a movie that reminds you to believe in yourself, no matter the odds. A must-watch for martial arts fans or anyone craving an inspiring, lighthearted adventure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ See more Michael W @mawilps Jun 2 This martial arts movie was alright. Jonathan Brandis, Chuck Norris, Mako, Beau Bridges, Julia Nickson, Danica McKellar, and the rest of the cast did a decent job in this movie. The story of the movie was a little dull at times and it seemed like it was a ripoff of The Karate Kid movie. If you haven't seen this movie yet, don't waste your time. It's not worth it.
