I’d rate the movie solidly in the middle of the pack of Disney live-action films: Escape to Witch Mountain, The Gnomemobile, and the Midvale High movies. Better than the Apple Dumpling Gang, but not as good as Old Yeller.

      Freak the Apprentice man, I just saw Inception.

      I hadn’t been to sleep since 5 the day before, and I went to see this around the same time, so I was tired as hell, and I dozed off out of nowhere near the end, so I missed like 5mins here, 5 mins there, but this movie…

      I want to read the screenplay, because for some reason, I think it is very streamline, very unbloated.

      Yes, and after putting it off forever they’ve finally gotten to the important stuff. But Nic Cage will never replace Don Knotts in the pantheon.
