The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl

The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2005) is a family sci-fi adventure from Robert Rodriguez you can watch online on iFILM. Ten-year-old Max struggles to fit in at school, so he invents two friends and writes them into his dream journal.

One day those friends walk right up to him: a boy raised by great white sharks and a girl made of volcanic fire. They pull Max away to Planet Drool, a world built entirely from his sketches and daydreams. But the dream is falling apart, and only the kid who imagined it can hold it together. A young Taylor Lautner plays Sharkboy, with Taylor Dooley as Lavagirl.

Rodriguez built the film from an idea by his son Racer and shot it in 3D, which explains its loud, comic-book color. It's a kids' story about imagination, friendship, and an ordinary boy finding his nerve. Stream The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2005) online on iFILM.
