Summary: The Little Family has just gotten bigger in Stuart Little
Review: When Stuart Little begins, an exited George Little (Jonatahn Lipnicki) runs out for his bedroom and into his parents bedroom saying "It's today." What does he mean by that?

His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Little (Hugh Laurie, Geena Davis) are going to adopt a little brother for George. At the orphanage, they meet and fell in love with a mouse. They adopt the mouse. And name him Stuart Little.

Stuart thinks he is headed for a happy home, but the family cat named Snowbell (Nathan Lane) and George Little are not to happy about this. Snowbell decides to eat Stuart Little, but Mr. and Mrs. Little make him spit him up. The next day, George is still un-happy. Stuart Little ends up in the wisher. And Mrs. Little is too stupid to notice.

So Snowbell askes a cat named Smokey (Chazz Palminteri) to help him get rid of Stuart. There is aslo a boat race (which George Little wins). And Mr. and Mrs. Little throw a party. At the party, is George's Uncle Crenshaw (Jeffrey Jones). By now George has come to love his tiny brother. But a couple of mice show up (Bruno Kirby, Jennifer Tilly, Liar Liar) and take him away.

George and his uncles, aunts, Cousin and grandparents help make posters and put them up around Center Park.

Summary: Very good, although not perfect...
Review: Stuart Little was a very good movie! I liked it a lot! It was one of the best movies of 1999. However, it wasn't perfect.

The actors played the characters very well. They had great lines for the most part and there were not a lot of characters put in there just to be in there, but they could have done without all those cats in the last scene and put in just Monty and Smoky.

The plots were also done very well, even though there are many background plots, they don't confuse you like many other movies. They were also well put together, you could understand all that was going on right then.

However, as I said before, this movie isn't perfect. I think they could have done without the cuss words if this was supposed to be a kids movie, and some scenes seem like they were added in just to add time, such as the scene where Stuart gets stuck in the washer.

Other than that, this is a nice kids movie which I recommend anyone to go see. It was very good!

Summary: A Little that's hit the big screen
Review: Well, I wasn't expecting that much from Stuart Little when I bought this DVD. I was just looking for something to do over the new year when the store keeper insisted that I buy this title and promised a full refund if I didn't like it. I guess I was wrong about this little rat after all.

This DVD is full of extras ranging from commentaries by the directors to the CG programmers, an original "ship race" concept which sadly, didn't make it to the big screen (due to budget of the movie), website links to Stuart Little, MTVs and even a mini car race game!

The picture quality is decent with bright colours. However, the sound effect is not that dynamic though (I could hardly hear any surround effects from my rear speakers). But the plot of the movie can make up for it.

Definitely a worthy title to add to your collection. In fact, I am also think about getting a rat after watching Stuart Little. Can anyone tell me if dogs and rats mix? I have a Jack Russel.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The movie is good - even for Adopted Children
Review: I bought this DVD for my five-year-old son. I previewed te picture at first (of course) and found out: This is the movie I want to show my little boy. Adopted children should watch this movie, especially if the parents have not yet found any other method to clearly explain the adoption to their child. Naturally this does NOT mean that the child should watch the movie ALONE. The parents are needed both because the movie is quite exciting and for to discuss the things thoroughly. If your DVD version (mine is CDR 14595) comes with the "extras" (games etc.) you may be well advised NOT to show the movie on a PC with Soft-DVD. My computer's settings were completely messed up by the extra programs! I had to reinstall everything from scratch - and that certainly was most unpleasant!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: So cute, it even captured my 23 month old's attention...
Review: I was initially skeptical that this movie would be appropriate for my almost 2 year old. However, he fell in love with Stuart. Whenever he would see the cat, Snowbell, he would start calling for our cat. The acting is kind of cheesy, but the special effects make up for the cheesiness. The best part of this DVD is the added bonus features. The storybook is a nice addition, and my son just loved playing the Stuart Little Central Park game. It's a trivia game where you answer questions to help get Stuart home. If your child has a long attention span, they would probably get a kick out of Stuart Little.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great First Movie Experience
Review: My husband and I watched this movie with our 2 year old (just turned 2 at time of this writing). Our daughter laughed out loud repeatedly! We were amazed and delighted to watch her reaction to the physical comedy. Unexpectedly, she watched the entire movie snuggled between us in bed. I highly recommend this delightful movie to parents of children of ALL ages.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stuart Little was a B-I-G hit in our house .....
Review: especially with our 3-year-old son. He has such a short attention span, but this one interested him a lot. I think the mixture of characters (people, cats, mice, etc.) made it more appealing. I personally only saw about half the movie, but I adored the cats (Especially Snowbell).

It's purely fantasy (a couple with a son adopt a mouse?????) however, it is an entertaining movie that parents should not be concered about their kids viewing. Adults might even like it too.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Have we no shame
Review: It's a crime and a sin what was done to E.B. White's classic children's novel. Heartless Hollywood got hold of it, ripped its guts out, threw in some snazzy effects, irrelevant slapstick, and rock music, and dared to call it "Stuart Little." All in the name of money. I'm not saying some six year-olds won't have fun watching it, but for the love of integrity, someone please read them the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stuart, Stuart
Review: Join the fun when the Little family adopts an adorably spunky boy named Stuart (voiced by Michael J. Fox), who looks a lot like a mouse. Mr. and Mrs. Little (Hugh Laurie and Geena Davis) fall in love with Stuart right away, but their older son George (Jonathan Lipnicki) isn't so sure what to make of his new brother, and the family's white cat, Snowbell (voiced by Nathan Lane), devises a dastardly plan to get Stuart out of the house...permanently. State-of-the-art special effects, laugh-out-loud comedy and rip-roaring hijinks make this the biggest adventure a Little can have.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The credits were the funniest part
Review: It would have been so easy to make this into a funny movie. All they needed was more cute and slapstick mouse humor. They missed every opportunity, until the credits were rolling. Then, in a small video window next to the scrolling text, was every funny scene we'd seen in the previews.

Skip this one. Rent Toy Story instead.
