Product Description:
One night jefferson reed gets hit in the chest by a souped-up chunk of meteor. So he can fly but hes scared of heights Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 01/06/2009 Starring: Robert Townsend Eddie Griffin Run time: 100 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Robert Townsend
Amazon.com:
Robert Townsend has managed to build an entire career on the basis of one funny movie (The Hollywood Shuffle)--even though he hasn't had one that was anywhere near as funny since. Case in point: This would-be comedy about an unwilling black superhero. Townsend plays a schoolteacher in a bad Washington, D.C., neighborhood that is controlled by a vicious drug gang (recognizable by their blonde-dyed hair). Then he is hit by a meteor and suddenly finds that he has super strength and can fly (and can read the minds of dogs). But Townsend's writing is surprisingly weak and, despite a cast that includes a mugging Bill Cosby, Eddie Griffin, Robert Guillaume, and sadly miscast James Earl Jones, this movie is never able to get off the ground. --Marshall Fine

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 ... Read More

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!

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.
