It was every kids dream to be smart enough to invent a shrink ray to make your teacher the size of an ant or grow a plant that eats annoying girls.

That is why director John A. Davis’ super intelligent grade school student was a hero for many youngsters. But when the titular protagonist, Jimmy, accidentally causes an alien invasion that leaves his whole town devoid of adults, he must team up with the rest of his demographic and travel to another planet and save their parents from becoming a giant alien chicken’s lunch.

Am I supposed to believe that I should take this movie seriously 16 years later?
