Man, this did not hold up well!
I must have missed it when I was a kid 37 years ago, although I do have a vague memory of the pie fight scene. (Maybe it was in the trailers?) But I just watched it as a middle-aged adult, and P.U., what a stinker! I think if I had seen back in the day - I was 11 - I wouldn't have liked it back then either.
I was showing it to my 14-year-old daughter, and she got up and walked out, it was so bad, saying "I would have been too old for this movie 5 years ago." And she's right. Was this movie made for 7-year-olds? Because that's the age you'd have to be to like this. Woof.
The idea of kids playing adults was cute - for about 10 minutes. But the music was god-awful. The dubbing of the music was even worse. Not that it was out of synch with the kids' mouths, but the voices didn't match at all. Blousie's acting, if you could call it that, stunk on ice. And the "Get Babyface" scene, wow: they couldn't find 10 kids in England who could do a convincing Noo Yawk accent? They had one line! ONE LINE!
I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.
