Featured review
That line, said by the "tuff, kewl homeless kid" Zeke pretty much sums the movie up.
As every review mentions, the titular uncle doesn't interact with anyone until the 1 hour 19 minute mark, before that he is seen in only a few scenes, which is a shame because the animatronics on him are way better than I was expecting. When he speaks however he will drive you up the wall, they gave him a raspy old woman voice and he ends every sentence with "mmm" or "ohmm".
It's clear they had a low budget, but when you market your film as an ET-type movie, kids will expect the actual alien, not a lame kidnap movie. The filmmakers should have chosen one genre to stick with. If they went the kidnap adventure type they could have had a bit more money for set pieces with the saved money on no animatronic alien.
Instead, we have a uneven curio that while it will draw viewers in with its oddball title and hilarious cover, it's destined to disappoint.
