    Excellent family movie. Feel good ending.

    My wife and I love this movie. I've been looking for it all over the place to buy but can only manage to catch it on television about twice a year. It's got a great build up to a feel good ending. Good wins over evil and all is right with the world. And love that computer and internet coolness too.

    This movie is only good because of Mike Angarano

    Pretty standard Disney Channel material---I've seen better, I've seen worse. It's about a boy (Michael Angarano) who buys his dad's toy company with the help of the internet. The plot has been done 100 times before---overworked dad loves his kids but doesn't spend enough time with them. I honestly think Michael Angarano does far better in the USA show, "COVER ME". In this movie it seems as if he is just going through the motions.

    A cool all round family comedy.

    This is a funny, well acted film, that provides family viewing, brought right up to date with an internet based plot line. This film is perfect to while away a rainy Sunday afternoon with the whole family.

    The cast (although a little surprising) gel together perfectly. Kevin Kilner (previously seen in Earth: Final Conflict) is truly believable as the business oriented father, who needs to spend more time with his family, Alexandra Paul manages to look pretty (which is about all this role allows her to do... but if it ain't broke...) and Michael Angarano is fabulously funny as the kid who just wants his dad to love him.

    Pure Schmultz, but we love it anyway!

    hmmm, at least Zane liked it

    I can see that Zantara missed the whole point of this movie. This film was written around Michael Angarano's character. He is the new rising star in Hollywood. I like Michael Angarano a lot and I never miss Cover Me. He's a good looking young actor and he makes this movie worthwhile to watch.

    a simple movie with a great message

    the movie was no specialty but i loved it because it made me laugh! the most important thing in a movie is the message behind it.... and this one surely had an effective one. it showed how children feel when their parents aren't home due to work and other activities and i liked the way they exaggerated the situation in order to make it more effective and more hidden at the same time! sometimes children do strange things to attract their parents' attention and although the thing happened in the move is kind of impossible, the idea was genial! this movie is directly referred to parents although one ma y think it's a children's movie. it's a comedy for the whole family and it's educative!! good work :>
