(rated G, 89 mins.)
Animated with similar pizzazz as computer generated “Toy Story” and “Shrek” comes the story of a kid looking like TJ’s Big Boy (head double sized his body and that Elvis duck tail doo) who must save his parents. This science nerd built his own rocket ship and flies off to school with his retractable jetpack in his backpack. He thinks his parents are worthless and wishes they’d disappear. When mom and pop are suddenly abducted by aliens, it’s up to this Lord of the gizmos and pals to save the day. This zippy little animated sci-fier may be a hot franchise for Nickelodeon and Paramount appealing to the little tykes of 9 and under.
