“Billy was a kid who got pushed around... Then he found the power.”

Why it’s crap
A bullied teenager finds an alien weapon and discovers that revenge comes with unpleasant cosmetic side effects. The creature animation offers real charm, but the sluggish drama and repetitive destruction struggle to build a film around the promising gadget.
