    Really enjoyable

    I thought this film was full of love fun and mischief. The cast it's great and have great chemistry. I really enjoyed it.

    Kids liked it

    It's not as bad as all the reviews on here say. It's a kids movie and my kids enjoyed it, that's all that really counts.

    Poor movie all over

    Bad acting, bad scrip, bad directing, it is so bad that John Leguizamo was not funny and he is a comedian. I would had given it 1 start but at least Keegan made me laugh.

    This is a Children's movie

    If anyone reviews it as an adult movie, that is their mistake.

    There was no solid plot. It was mainly a bunch of funny scenes sewn together to make a plot. I saw two established actors I enjoy very much, Dennis Haysbert and Judy Greer. I was also introduced to another established actor I had not seen before, Keegan Michael Key. He was very funny. I would say he stole the movie. I was also introduced to a new actor, for whom I predict a bright career, if she stays with these "good" movies, Brianna Hildebrand.

    DON'T TAKE THIS MOVIE VERY SERIOUSLY

    At moments it can be annoying but not very often. It has a pretty good cast. Keegan Michel Key in particular is hilarious, John Cena and his Crew are pretty good, The kids and everyone else are pretty good too. But it lacks in emotion even though my sister cried. Overall a decent movie you SHOULD NOT take seriously and if you don't take it seriously you will have a good time.

    • Trivia
      The line "Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life" was an idea in the 1997 Terry Pratchett Discworld book Jingo. However, the original passage was "Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life."
