I watched this thinking it was a full movie. A kid discovers that he has super powers right at the time that he is starting to get bullied in school. For a fifteen minute short it was very good. I really hate to watch short films because they just get started with a story and it is over. This could have been a full movie and it would be great if they did make it into a full movie. It did come to an end at a great spot. This is one of the best short films that I have ever seen.
