Kids will probably enjoy the sight of huge, bumbling teddy bears... Parents will exit wondering why this piece of unnecessary cross-promotion wasn't released straight to video.

It's mildly amusing, but I certainly can't recommend it.

This ingrown mutant is easily the most bizarre children's film made in this country since 1982's lab-rat apocalypse The Secret of NIMH.

Pic as a whole is a gently and genuinely amusing treat that should bring smiles to target auds.
