Not at all like the animated series
If you are a fan of the animated Jacob Two Two series seen on Qubo and Ion TV, this movie will be quite a disappointment. There is none of the magic or wit of the TV series to be found anywhere in this adaptation. The biggest problem with this production is that it's almost all scary stuff with Jacob in some sort of nightmare world. The supportive family and humor of the TV show are nowhere to be found. I take it back, the very biggest problem is the use of super low budget production values and scripting in favor of big-ish name actors in this production. Too often, Mark McKinney, Miranda Richardson, Gary Busey, and Ice-T are framed from afar with nothing to do but rant and gesture in attempts to revive the half baked-not clever-boring script. Yes, I know it's just a kid's movie. Yes I know there is great history and love for Jacob. I'm a huge fan of the animated TV series and I was really looking forward to showing this to my niece and nephew the next time they visit. My wife and I...
Love it!
A fun little family movie with some cheesy comedy and 'alice in wonderland' type feel to it. I remember seeing it on TV years ago and was happy to find it on DVD, boy did it bring back the memories. Good cast and a fun watch!
Great for kids of ALL ages!
I bought this for my 3-year old daughter, and she absolutely loves it! It is a terrific movie, geared towards children, but honestly, I loved it almost as much as she did! My 9-year old son has watched it about a dozen or so times also.
Teaches valuable lessons, a great music score, and a fantastic cast makes me want more of these types of movies!
Can't go wrong with this one, I'd buy it again when this one wears out :)
