This was a great film. Sure it wasn't the best live-action Disney film but it had some impressive special effects and the whole "shrunk down to 1/4 of an inch" theme was very cool and the acting was great compared to children's films nowadays. Why does this have a 6.2? It should be at least between a 7.0-7.5.
I had to give it a 10. This is one of those movies we had on VHS when I was a little kid. So it was one of those movies I've seen about a thousand times. I simply have to give it a 10 out of ten. Movies like this, Home Alone, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, BeetleJuice, & Toy Story. They were a big part of my childhood. It doesn't get much more nostalgic than this, to me.
I'm with you on that entirely, Honey I Shrunk the Kids was one of those classic movies I grew up with as a kid. I could understand the sequel being rated a 6.2, but this one deserves much higher. The bumblebee scene and Anty are timeless.
