Saw it once as a kid because I liked Elijah. I don't remember much but it had some cute moments, I guess.

Feels very dated. It’s sweet but overly 90s

This was my favorite childhood movie so my opinion on this movie is very skewed. This was my go to movie every summer.

Not really a fan of human-animal friendship movies. Average.

I had such a crush on Elijah Wood when this came out. Don’t know how it holds up, but if you liked the old show you’ll probably enjoy this.

They used to play this for us in kindergarten when it was time to take a nap. And that’s all I have to say about that...
