Suspend the Imagination, See as a Child, Save the Future; Cute!

JUL

2008

The Last Mimsy is a magical study of life, extra-terrestrials, the human species and imagination.

It explores how children are more open to the unexplained and magical than adults, and that may be a good thing--or not, depending on one's own imagination and ability to suspend belief (as children can--which... review »

Critical Review

Mimzy was a little bit creepy.

I liked the story and the performance by the kids and the science teacher; every day people in the middle of something great and managing to rise brilliantly to the occaision. I was disappointed by the parents and the investigators, their characters seemed to have tunnel vision and the actors seemed to be walking through the roles. Overall I think it's a very good movie... I felt wonder and hope as I watched and was reminded how great the human spirit can be, even in small packages.
