That's where he keeps notes about various characters such as Sharkboy -- a kid raised by sharks -- and Lavagirl -- who can control her namesake material and wield it as a weapon -- who he believes are real but only get him grief from Linus and the other kids. Everyone else, however, becomes believers when a tornado strikes the school and Sharkboy (TAYLOR LAUTNER) and Lavagirl (TAYLOR DOOLEY) suddenly show up, stating they need Max to return with them to Planet Drool.
It seems that villain Mr. Electric (GEORGE LOPEZ) and his sidekick Minus (JACOB DAVICH) have set out to gain control of the cerebral planet by destroying all dreams, including Sharkboy and Lavagirl. From that point on, Max rediscovers his forgotten and discarded dreams as he joins forces with his two new friends in battling Mr. Electric and his minions to save Planet Drool.
The various bits of action and stunts might be enticing for some kids to imitate, as might some of the other behavior. Various characters have varying degrees of bad attitudes, including some kids who bully and otherwise pick on and belittle a fellow student. Some tense family material is present in a brief scene of parents arguing and a boy being separated from his father, while some crude humor is present.
