I don't even know why this movie was made. The plot is totally unoriginal, and the acting is painful to watch! I don't know how many times I heard one of the actor's/actress' lines and went: "WHAT? That's stupid!" You want an example?
"If it makes a child happy, it's always the right thing to do." Excuse me? If a child wanted to go bungee jumping off a jumbo jet without a bungee cord because it would make them happy would you let them?
"If you don't know what it is, how can you be afraid of it?" Hmmm, well believe it or not, people are usually scared of things that are unknown to them.
On to the bad acting. I have to say, although the kids acting is just downright excruciating, the adults are way worse. Put yourself in the mother's position: your children have just stolen your car and you have no idea where they are. What's your initial reaction? I'll bet it doesn't involve showing no emotion and saying (in a monotone voice, I might add) "Oh no. The kids are gone and so is the car." And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
On the upside, though, it's hilarious!
