This movie is what you would expect from Disney away from animation, though it is better than its usual offerings in this area.
Rick Moranis has been trying to escape this role ever since, with two inferior sequels and a Disney attraction short, he has found it almost impossible to show his undoubted talent as a comedic actor away from this franchise.
The rest of the cast is largely made up of Disney house actors who crop up in attraction shorts and other Disney movies best left forgotten while their contract runs and so do nothing more than say the lines.
Moranis' neighbour is the only other comic highlight in this movie and so this is children's fluff and, apart from the special effects, not much more.
