An average movie

To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie but since I didn’t like it much the first time around, I don’t think I will ever give it a 2^nd chance at some point (I could give it a try with my daughter though). Still, I remember it very well, I actually saw the damned thing with my girlfriend at the time in the movie theater when it was released. Seriously, after all these years, I still don’t understand why she made us watch this flick. I mean, she was a great girl and pretty smart but, sometimes, she had the bad habit to focus on some really childish movies like this one. Anyway, even though I have to admit that it was visually pretty neat (it was in fact the  first feature film with a computer-animated lead character), I was completely bored by the damned thing. It was also the first movie starring Christina Ricci following the Addams family features and, even though she was once again pretty cute, this character was also so much more underwhelming than Wednesday Addams.  It didn’t help that I didn’t care for Casper either. To conclude, I thought it was pretty weak but I guess it might be worth a look if you want to entertain some very young children.
