Megan W I bought the dvd thinking it was going to be the biggest load of horse dookie on the planet. However, this movie surprised me, and turned out to be pretty good. Its basically about this kid who thinks hes a rat, and the movie is about figuring out wtf is wrong with him. It was pretty funny and overall had a nice mystery of where the kid is from. AND THE KID- LMAO. There is this little ginger kid going around saying he's a rat, and eats pencils. He is pretty funny and is an actual menace to society. The other charectors were all engaging! Very in their roles. I don't think any charector disappointed me. Maybe the princess she kinda was boring. Loved the principle and teacher the most. Very in their roles; enjoyable and gave it their all for such little screen time they had. Overall this movie baffled me. Really was not expecting to like it but here I am. If you like rats, you will like this. If your a furry you probably will too. Or if your not one. I'm not one. 4 stars. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/25 Full Review Read all reviews
