I first saw this movie with my younger siblings during what I thought would be a typical family night. Boy was I wrong! This movie was so entertaining that I found everybody including myself completely engrossed with Zenon and her escapades. We especially love Protozoa and his #1 song "Supernova Girl". We were all up dancing and singing along. Kirsten Storms is a talented young actress, whom I'm sure will go far. I loved this movie and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a movie that is funny, clean, and actually has a storyline that is not too typical or corny. I have seen it many times and will watch it many more I am sure. If not for the movie itself, for Kristian Rex(Protozoa) he is definitely a great addition to Zenon. I know my younger siblings can't wait for the sequel, and neither can I!
This is an absolutely amazing movie. It first aired when I was in my mid to late teen years and although I was a few years older than the characters, I absolutely loved it and watched it repeatedly despite the age differences between myself and the characters. I recently saw the movie again and I still love it just as much now as when I was younger. I still love the costume design, the plot, the storyline, the music... I will always love "Super Nova Girl". It still seems incredibly futuristic. I just plain always have and always will love this movie. I'm 29 years old now and will never grow out of it. I definitely recommend it to every one, from toddlers to seniors and everyone in between. This movie is very entertaining and definitely not just for children.
I'm an adult but I get songs from this movie stuck in my head allllll the time. As a kid I wanted to dress and act just like Zenon and live in Space and honestly it sucks that we don't? Anyway, great kids movie for all ages, good message without being saccharine, this is my favorite DCOM ever.
It will be interesting in the year 2049 to see if the future world predicted in Zenon: Girl Of The 21st Century is actually here. At this point in time many science fiction future films have fallen short of the mark. Don't mean they're not good entertainment and this one from Disney Studios certainly is.
Kirsten Storms is in the title role and Zenon's a bright and spunky child who with her family is on a traveling space station that has explored a lot of the solar system and beyond. But she suspects something is amiss with millionaire Frederick Coffin and his sleazy aide Bob Bancroft who have endowed a lot of their money to the project. In these films the hero/heroine always has good instincts.
Her good instincts uncover a plot to destroy the space station itself with a computer virus during the first outer space rock concert by a futuristic David Bowie named Proto Zoa played by Phillip Rhys. Do you doubt that our resourceful teen saves the day? All of course after the ultimate grounding of being kicked off the station back to the home world.
Zenon: Girl Of The 21st Century is one of the better Disney television films and it was popular enough to spawn a sequel. Look for a nice performance by Raven Symone as Storms's best friend who runs interference for her. And Coffin and Bancroft are a pair of villains like Captain Hook and Smee.

I was surprised to say that I actually enjoyed this. Although it was a cheesey, teeny-bopper flick, I found myself cheering it on. I found myself feeling as if I were 13 again.
