"The Last Mimzy" (2007)

Synopsis:
A brother and sister find a box that contains toys, including a stuffed bunny, which possess unearthly powers.

Review:
This film was enjoyable for the most part. It was very fun, heartfelt and entertaining. The storyline is quite creative and the characters are quite likeable. I really liked the chemistry between the kids and Mimzy. The visuals are pretty neat. I also like the scientific aspect of it.

There were a few things that bugged me. The brother and sister, Noah and Emma can often be annoying and the ending dragged a bit and the plot felt a bit a bit rushed in some places. Also, not to spoil anything but there is a big reveal at the end where I was like "What?" Not that I didn't like the ending.

Overall, this was a very good film and I think kids will enjoy it.

In the end, I'll say "The Last Mimzy", while not a perfect film, is a fun emotional roller coaster with heart and cool sequences that should be able satisfy children as well as adults who are young at heart.

Max Scale:
8/10
