Description

Thunderstruck is a 2012 American family comedy film directed by John Whitesell. The film tells the story of a high school student named Brian who loves basketball but is not very good at it. One day, he meets his idol, professional basketball player Kevin Durant, and the two accidentally swap talents. As a result, Brian becomes an amazing basketball player, while Durant suddenly loses his skills.

The film's plot is inspired by the classic children's story The Prince and the Pauper, with Brian and Durant switching roles and learning valuable lessons about friendship and perseverance along the way. The film's humor is primarily aimed at younger audiences, with silly slapstick and sight gags dominating the comedy. However, the film also explores deeper themes of self-discovery and the importance of following one's dreams.

The performances in Thunderstruck are generally solid, with Kevin Durant making a charming and charismatic leading man. The supporting cast, which includes actors like Jim Belushi and Brandon T. Jackson, also provide comedic relief and help move the story along. While the film's humor may not be to everyone's taste, Thunderstruck is a heartwarming and feel-good family film that will entertain children and adults alike.
