Henry Aldrich played by Jimmy Lydon and his best friend Dizzy Stevens played by Charles Smith return in this fine film of comedy and family love. Henry and Dizzy are with some girls in the lake area when Henry does what he does "best" and sinks the boat. The boat owner and his horrible son played by Carl "alfalfa" Switzer demand repayment for a new boat or jail for Henry. Mr Aldrich is approached by Henry with the idea of a father/son project of building a new boat. But the project that Mr Aldrich wants is only a kite. So Henry enters a father/son outing of contests at the park to win a cash prize. Trouble is that Mr Aldrich doesn't have time for his son so Henry finds a substitute father. Mr Aldrich finds this out and learns that time with his son is more important than anything else.
Comedy with a vacuum cleaner as Henry and Dizzy attempt to raise money is a classic. Scenes of Mr Aldrich trying to win many of the physical contests "three-legged races, etc" are also funny. A fine film for the whole family to watch together.
