So, 'Sidekick' is this quirky blend of action, comedy, and fantasy that tells the story of Norman Neale, a computer consultant who's caught in the daily grind. He’s not your typical hero, more of a daydreamer with a penchant for comic books and a crush on his lively receptionist, Andrea. The film strikes this odd balance between fun and the mundane, creating an atmosphere that's both whimsical and relatable. Pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but it's kind of charming in its own way. The practical effects add a nice touch, especially in the fantasy sequences. Performances are solid; you can really feel Norman's struggles and aspirations. It’s a unique take on the whole superhero trope without diving too deep into the usual clichés, which sets it apart.
