Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie

50% Hero. 100% Cotton.

Two overly imaginative pranksters named George and Harold hypnotize their principal into thinking he’s a ridiculously enthusiastic, incredibly dimwitted superhero named Captain Underpants. Unfortunately they then run afoul of a real super-villain. This film is releasing in 2D and 3D. This is the 2D version.

88 minutes.
Parental Guidance.
Action, Animated, Comedy, Family.

Thank goodness for Pampers.
