Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I cannot understand the critics of this film. It clearly has an unbelievable plot and all the characters are caricatures of goodies or baddies, inept adults and triumphant kids - but that is where the humour lies. From start to finish it stands in the old fashioned slap stick and manic situation comedy movie genre. The fact that you can see some of the jokes coming does not stop them being funny at the moment of delivery. There are some superb slap stick movie moments. Mayhem abounds. It is not meant to be taken seriously. It does not pretend to be great cinema. It is not cool or sophisticated comedy. Woody Allen would and could not have made it. It should be seen for what it is, a wonderful, old-fashioned, family comedy which makes us laugh again and again and which can be enjoyed by all ages. I grew up on Jerry Lee Lewis and St. Trinians. I loved it.

I watched this movie four times already and counting when I babysit a little guy and I actually thought this was quite good, it was not perfect but it did have a lot of good scenes. However, the only good actors in that movie were B.D. Wong and Scarlett Pommers.

AAAAArgh!!! In this almost Disney "made for TV" production value movie, we are introduced to the"little child outcasts that could". They, while on field trip to a Sea World-like place, decide to steal a sea lion....right. It gets better, the guy from the Fox Tracey Ullman show was also trying to steal it using an electro shock prod. Anyhow, the kids pull off enormously "wacky" stunts and... well, go rent Free Willy. Other highlights include: Bronson Pinchot as the half-wit bus driver and an oriental man in American flag bikini underwear singing opera....No joke. Snap up a copy quick, it'll be in the 99 cent video bin with GoodBurger....
