I like this movie because it shows the rewards of both study and hard work. I like it because Flynn is genuinely nice and naive, while still an able hero. I like his sidekick/enforcer, Nicole No one (There is a "trust No one" line, of course), played with aplomb by Sonya Walger. And of course, there is no way anyone can miss a movie where Bob Newhart sports a Marine Tattoo on his chest and engages in martial arts fighting!
This is a move that the family can watch with no worries at all. The pilot had a lot of setup work to do, but it got it done, so the next movie, or hopefully the weekly series, will be less hokey in the setup. Here's hoping for a series.

This is far from being "Rugrats: The Next Generation." Instead, you can see palpable changes in the characters of the show from the baby-oriented original series to this one.
The plot lines have some refreshing changes in them. Coming along for the ride is a new Vice-Principal who was an ex-professional wrestler. He takes a keen interest in Dil, who is the breakout star of this show. In one episode, he counsels Dil (Wisely!) when the other kids use his genius for their profit.
Dil is the weird one who does weird things, but inside that brain is a true genius. Also amazing is the transformation of Tommy from fearless leader-baby to more a member of the group, complete with insecurities. Angelica is different too. She's softer and less bossy, but still a schemer. Her lispy friend Harold is a nice foil for her antics.
This is completely kid-safe. It's also fun for adults, too. Perhaps it's not in the same league as Spongebob, but it is great fun!
So on my 1-10 scale, I give it an 8.
