Critics' reviews

"An intelligent, imaginative children's adventure refreshingly free of rapping cartoon animals, fart jokes and mind-numbing special effects"

Ken Fox: TV Guide
"An unexpectedly disarming, extremely well-cast little variation on 'E.T.'"

Lou Lumenick: New York Post
"Though it becomes flimsy toward the end, it's a ripping yarn"

G. Allen Johnson: San Francisco Chronicle
"This children's sci-fi movie should be palatable to the young and old alike, yet it's ultimately more a mild diversion than a magical adventure."

Marjorie Baumgarten: Austin Chronicle
"An involving fantasy for beamish boys and girls - and their parents.

Carrie Rickey: Philadelphia Inquirer
"A reasonably engaging movie filled with fun visual effects and an appealing tone reminiscent of a certain Spielberg movie about an out-of-his-element extraterrestrial."

Michael Rechtshaffen: The Hollywood Reporter
The film feels as if it's trying to force a sense of wonder and awe upon its youthful audience, rather than simply letting an intriguing story unfold naturally.

Claudia Puig: USA Today
