Another family movie, that tries to be a kid "Indiana Jones". It starts out with a really strange pace, that pretty much sets the tone for the rest of the movie, along with EVERY Cliché EVER TO BE IN A FAMILY MOVIE. Dead grandparent leaves map behind, Kid gets picked on by annoying bullies who play video games. It's all there. The clichés are definitely the main issue in the movie. By half way even the 6yr old was guessing what would happen next and was (no surprise) correct. This led to an extremely boring and predictable film. The only plot twist is at the literal VERY END. But it doesn't even really make sense, a lot like the entire movie. The only goodish part is the writing, which can be clever at times, but the acting seriously lets it down.

This movie is Well Made, with Excitement and Adventure! Not too slow, but not too fast. It has good videography, good acting, and a well written story line. Kudos to the Director!A Great Movie for the Whole Family! Safe for kids, but enough action for adults. No inappropriate clothing, and no foul language. I think the PG rating is appropriate (not for the wee lads and lasses).Contains messages of Loyalty, Responsibility, Creativity, Courage, and plenty of Patriotism! Movies with a positive message are getting harder to find these days, and I like to support the makers when I find one (especially when they tell you in the bonus material, that they're planning on making more :) ).I can't wait for the next one to come out!

Personally the script isn't well written seems unrealistic to what actual people would say in that situation, or it could be the way the actors portrayed their character. If someone were robbing a bank a teenager would not yell at the robber and say "You are not very nice." I can't be completely negative, It was okay. Technically it's about a boy, Mickey Matson (seen as a geek), who is given a rock by his late grandfather. He meets a girl, Sully, and they go on an adventure together. I'm chopping off most of the details for someone who wants to watch the movie. It is a good movie for very young children. in the end I wouldn't recommend it.

Mickey Matson is a fun, family friendly film. It follows the adventures of a boy who begins searching for answers after receiving a rock from his grandfather. With the help of friends, he begins to unravel a mystery and discovers his grandfather's long kept secret. As he does so, he is forced to make some very tough decisions about doing what is right and learns that doing what is best is rarely the easiest option.There's a little action, mystery, history, and some hilarious bad guys. The story line was fun and is something everyone can enjoy. I liken it to the Goonies or a kids' version of National Treasure. The cinematography, lighting, and visual effects were also very nice! I enjoyed the visual aspect of the film as much as I did the plot.
