Reviews

jlthornb51 Victor DiMattia is wonderful as that little lovable moppet Dennis from funny paper fame. As Dennis is brought to life, the laughs come fast and furiously in this utterly delightful comedy romp. The neighborhood is in an uproar when the tyke finds a dinosaur bone in the yard and a notorious paleontologist is dispatched to investigate. During the resulting did in the tiny dynamo's front garden, all mayhem breaks out and chaos reigns supreme. A stellar cast is uproarious and the direction couldn't be more sharp. Especially observant satire on neighborhood politics and feuds. For anyone who loves kids, dinosaurs, and life.

orlando_bird_green Sometihing tells me that this film was a live action version of the cartoon because DIC Enterprises(the company that produced the cartoon)produced this film also and the film title in the opening credits was identical to the one in the cartoon. Wouldn't you agree? I wonder if they have this film on DVD or if they even had it in VHS circulation. I used to watch syndicated reruns on the Disney channel 15 years ago and it was played on Encore WAM! 2 years ago. I t was pretty weird that they were considering turning Dennis' neighborhood into a dinosaur amusement park after he found that dinosaur bone. There were some parts where Dennis was a little rebellious to his parents.

Krinda Okay, whenever the children are on screen, the watching children are totally absorbed. But when it's adults mostly, well, the children start to drift, doze off, play with laid out toys, etc. This movie needed lots more of the children ONLY, and the scenes with the adults had to be much, much shorter. But the kids were very good, and I particularly enjoyed the goodbye scene between Dennis (Victor DiMattia) and Joey (Jarrett Lennon) -- it was REAL!!!

Pat-88 You're better off with the 1993's Dennis the Menace. This one was so bad, it make Dennis the Menace: Strikes Back and the 1993 version look like American movie classics. PLEASE AVOID THIS MOVIE AT ALL COSTS!!!! There's much better movies out there than this stupid pile of bones.I give it No Stars
