Forget.. E.T, this is the greatest kids movie ever made... This movie encapsulates all the coolness of being a kid as well as being really funny and honest. It's like a funny version of a cross between the wonder years and stand by me... It seems stupid cuz this film really isn't exactly complex... infact it's sooo simplistic but soooo watchable... I've seen it about a million times and I still love it... If you got kids buy it for them now!!! If not buy it anyway cuz I promise unless your a heartless boring person you'll love it too! The synopsis may not even sound great but I promise you the homour and story is nailed. Best Kids film ever!!
