  • Watch Online / The Amazing Mr. Z (2021)



    Desc: The Amazing Mr. Z: Directed by Nadia Tass. It's two days before Christmas. Seven-year-old Jordy loves to draw superheroes. Wearing a superhero costume, he struggles on this snow-covered garage roof and, as though flying, leaps into space. A legend on screen reads "Six Months Earlier." Jordy's father, Michael Braddock writes for Newsweek. He and his wife, Emily, a real estate agent, work such long hours that Jordy spends almost as much time with the babysitter. Being undersized and shy, he often gets bullied at school. Michael's editor assigns him a story about a substandard nursing homes in Miami. When Emily has to attend a real estate convention, Michael winds up taking Jordy with him. There they meet grumpy Irving Zuppermann, 84, and his energetic girlfriend, Wanda Williamson, 81. Both live a Sunshine Convalescent, a Medicaid Alzheimer's facility. The two are going to change Jordy's life. Wanda was placed at Sunshine because she had rescued too many homeless pets. Once a Warsaw Circus strongman whose act was "The Amazing Mr. Z," Irving was placed at Sunshine because he insists, he's a superhero. This explains the tattered long-sleeved shirt with a big "Z" on his chest. (And yet, Mr. Z does feats that defy logic and then there's that secret dating back to WW II). Unbeknownst to Mr. Z and Wanda, he's scheduled to be moved. Encouraging others that everyone can be a superhero goes against Sunshine's policy of sedating its residents. Can Michael prevent his son's "pretend grandfather" from being forced into a lockdown facility? Does he discover that with Emily and Jordy he's already rich? Believing in Mr. Z's "there's a little superhero in all of us," can Jordy stand up to the bully? And does Wanda finally get Mr. Z to marry her?
