It's time to stand up for the little guys.

Adventure, Family

Wil Shriner
A young man moves from Montana to Florida with his family, where he's compelled to engage in a fight to protect a population of endangered owls.
Top critics, in their words
This sweet-natured but plodding adaptation of a young-adult novel by Carl Hiaasen could have used a little less broad satire of corporate greed and a few more, well, owls. The critters peep from their burrows for only a few brief moments.
It would be a nice little family film if not for the fact that the young heroes commit felonies in the name of saving the environment.
Endangered as they are, burrowing owls will be disappointed to learn that their cause has been hitched to a movie with little entertainment value, let alone credible strategies to save their environment.
There is nothing objectionable in this family film, but it doesn't seem to appreciate the intelligence and savvy of its youthful audience. Kids can spot a silly stereotypical character as fast as the rest of us.
But while Hoot's pro-environment message to kids is certainly worthy, the unquestioning, pro-vigilante angle doesn't sit entirely well.
