Review by Bellamy, 9 years old.

Perfect, the best part was at the end. Which was different from the first version. There was lots of good stuff like the portal guns. Stitch was energetic, naughty, and sad, funny nice, good and great. Lilo was very funny, great, and fun. The aliens were friendly and nice.

I used to read Harold and the Purple Crayon to my kids at bedtime, and they loved it. This movie is very imaginative and follows right along from the books. What would happen if Harold grew up and drew himself into the real world? Surprising things! It was great. I especially loved the disaster at the Everything store. And drawing the airplane, and everything he drew turned out great. Moose and Porcupine threw me off at first, since they turned into humans, but they were excellently acted, especially Porcupine. And I loved every time Moose turned into his true shape.

An excellent movie for the family. I also noted that every time they rode on a bike, skateboard, or plane, they all wore helmets, excellent role models.

I checked this movie out since I enjoy Harry Anderson, and this is the last movie he made before his untimely death.

The science is poor, the acting is not great though they did their best, but I did like the music. The debate veered away from a debate and turned into a monologue, which is unfortunate.

I just want to point out, if anyone is interested, that evangelical Christianity, while many good people belong to that tradition, is not traditional Christianity. That label belongs to Catholicism, which is the church that Christ founded. The Catholic Church accepts evolution as a possibility for the diversity of life. No one, not even evolutionists, believes that evolution explains the creation of the universe. That's a separate question. And creationism does not demand that we disregard the fossil record and assume that the earth is six thousand years old.

So this is a sad effort to shore up beliefs that Christians in the apostolic tradition don't accept, but it was nice to see Harry Anderson, who I always enjoy.
