This movie is great for the family and kids! It's my 5th-favourite Sci Fi movie just underneath "Star Wars", "Mr Bean", "Shaun The Sheep 2: Farmageddon" and "Space Jam". It's also my 2nd-favourite Nickelodeon movie just underneath "The Adventures Of Tintin: The Movie".
I used to love this and grew up with this for 8 years on VHS along with Space Jam and Thomas And The Fantastic All-Hailroad, then I hadn't seen it for 5 years when my VCR broke. When I saw it again 5 years later, it was actually pretty good!
The animation is good, it gives the style of a 3D video game. Those rube-Goldberg machines, gadgets, inventions and science-tech that Jimmy made are really futuristic-styled! Like a super-genius could have done it.
The characters are good, Jimmy's friends are hilarious, Carlton Wheezer is hilariously clumsy and Sheen Estevez is a nerdy Mexican who's OBSESSED with superheroes. I especially like Carl's line: "croissant" and Sheen's line: "I pee in the shower" HAHAHAHA!!! It stars most of the children played by adults, some Looney Toons actors and Franklin Windell Welker. The aliens very much remind me of Doctor Strangeglove and his sidekick Fishlips. Jimmy's dad also has great humour with his classic dad jokes "if all your friends were named Cliff, would you jump off them?".
The soundtrack is good! It's got good laser-like Sci Fi music that goes really well with a Science Fiction movie. It's got scary Science Fiction music for the aliens too. As for the songs, the best song has to be "Blitzkrieg Bop". And also has the movie's punk-rock theme and the song "We Got The Beat" (which is also in MLP).
Did you know that aliens have some possible evidence???...
Overall in conclusion, when this movie got nominated, I think it probably should have won.
