Laughing out Loud
Added 6/27/2009
My family watched this together and rolled in the floor. They have one scene where 2 men were dancing like sissies out in the street. I had to stop the tape because my niece started hyperventilating from laughing so hard. We played that part over and over. This was a good movie.

Nice Characters, Nice Message
Added 3/20/2009
This is an almost all-black cast featuring many prominent black actors and singers. The most famous one, Bill Cosby, has several scenes but no lines of dialog!
What makes the film appealing is its innocence and charm. There is hardly any profanity, there is a good-hearted likable hero ("Jefferson Reed" ) Robert Townsend) and a nice story of good folks trying to get rid of destructive violent neighborhood gangs.
It's hokey; it's corny, it's sometimes stupid but there are some genuinely unique and funny scenes in this film as when "Meteor Man" talks to his dog or when he does some amazing feats to save his friends.
A fun, lightweight film that - yes, the whole family can enjoy. It's a sad comment that it is not better known. I think it's refreshing to see some nice people and good role-models exhibited for a change.

My family loves this movie!
Added 2/22/2008
I own Meteor Man and every time my nephews visit, they can't wait to watch it! It's cute with lots of great black actors. It's silly, but fun and the message is positive. I give Robert Townsend lots of credit for making a black superhero movie and I even have the Meteor Man action figure that came out after the movie! Watch the movie and enjoy!

Rare role model
Added 2/21/2008
Why don't we have more superheroes like Meteor Man? This is the all-time favorite superhero movie of my three kids, who are on their second copy of the film. They wore the VHS out years ago, but the DVD is still going strong. Affirming, entertaining and fun.
