"We Can Be Heroes," directed by Robert Rodriguez, was released on December 25, 2020, as a Netflix original film. Upon its release, it garnered mixed reviews from critics; some praised its imaginative plot and family-friendly superhero action, while others found it somewhat chaotic and uneven in tone. Fans particularly enjoyed the performances of young actors YaYa Gosselin as Missy Moreno and Lyon Daniels as Noodles, who brought charm and heart to their roles. Over time, the movie has developed a dedicated fanbase, especially among younger audiences, appreciating its fun, adventurous spirit and positive messages about teamwork and courage. While it may not be universally regarded as a cult classic, "We Can Be Heroes" has certainly transcended its initial mixed reception to be seen as an underrated gem within the family superhero genre.
