'Max Steel' (Live Action Film)

[Himmel]

Ben Winchell plays Max McGrath, a teen boy who meets and merges with an alien named Steel to become Max Steel.

Max Steel is an in-depth “origin” story packed with captivating characters and fast-paced action. The plot chronicles the adventures of Max McGrath and his mother have just moved back to Copper Canyon, the town in which Max’s scientist father died in a mysterious accident shortly after Max was born. As Max adjusts to his new school, things get complicated when his body starts to generate strange energy flare-ups that he can’t control.

At first a confusing mix of inconvenient and exhilarating, this unpredictable power eventually grows too intense for Max to handle, causing him to distance himself from those around him including the girl he likes, Sofia. Eventually the energy pushes him to the verge of fatal combustion. In the nick of time, a techno-organic extraterrestrial named Steel, who has been secretly monitoring Max’s progress, saves him just before he loses consciousness. The two discover that when joined together they can control the energy and harness it into superhuman strength – and that when apart, neither can survive for long.

As these two unlikely friends learn to accept their connected fates, they begin to uncover secrets surrounding the death of Max’s father. As they dig deeper, they soon find themselves hunted by an unforeseen enemy bent on capturing Max and Steel for a sinister agenda of destruction. Uncertain who to trust, they will have to work together to find the truth, and fight the mysterious forces threatening our world.

Maria Bello plays Max’s mom, Andy Garcia plays Dr. Miles Edwards, and Josh Brener voices Steel.

Max Steel will be released in the U.S. on October 21st.

Looks generic and the main lead is annoying.

[Troll2fan]

This almost looks as bad as Steel.

So - straight to video then? Not seeing it on any release calendars.

The trailer could've flowed better, but I like the Tron influences in the designs. I'd consider seeing it.

That trailer seems to flow better. Thanks. I wonder if this is direct to theater or home video?

I've seen 0 marketing for this. No trailer, no tv spots, no poster, no ads on Facebook. This will bomb bad.

I've seen a couple tv spots on Disney XD and on FOX. Agree that it wont do too well.

Anyone check this out yet?

[ScarredLungs]

I have only seen the trailers posted on this website and nowhere else. They must have little faith in the adaptation since they have done zero marketing.

Shockingly the trailer has over 18 million views on YouTube.

I did. It was pretty fun. The editing is a mess at the beginning, but it got better. I would give it a 3-3.5. My theater surprisingly had it in one of the two large auditoriums.
