Small hero.  Big heart.

I had seen this all of this in parts over the years, but saw it in its entirety a few weekends ago on a Saturday morning.  I don’t think my kids were even in the room anymore, but I didn’t want to get up off of the couch.

Anyway, it’s as pint-sized mouse with elephant-sized ears that shows no fear and gets whisked away into his own little fairy tale to save a princess.  How cute.  It’s not a bad movie at all, but I didn’t find it very funny, the set was always extremely dull, and the characters were kind of boring and monotone.  That’s sounds quite contradictory after reading it aloud.  Hmmm.

I guess I’ll just say you can do worse and leave it at that.
