    There's a real gee-whiz kick to the fantasy of being the brainiest kid on the planet, and a down-to-earth quality to Jimmy and his not-so-bright, but ever-so-stalwart best buddies.

    A witty, well-crafted comedy that combines primal slapstick with sharp satiric banter to keep children and parents laughing together.

    The film is short on plot, and any form of character development, but I am sure the target audience of children will find plenty to enjoy even though most adults may find it a bit boring. All in all, Jimmy Neutron is a nice holiday diversion for the family.

    Frenetic and uninvolving.

    Some people don't like the visuals of this show, but it just wouldn't be the same if it were any different. The real thing that makes this show great is the title character and the fun story.… Expand

    The plot was close to ridiculous, the graphics are great, the voice acting was good and some scenes are cheesy and too predictable. Overall, a good film especially for kids....… Expand
