Synopsis

The joke's on absent-minded scientist Wayne Szalinski when his troublesome invention shrinks him, his brother and their wives so effectively that their children think they've completely disappeared. Of course, this gives the kids free rein to do anything they want, unaware that their parents are watching every move.

Wordiezett So much average
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Mr-Fusion I imagine that if you're looking for harmless family fun, then "honey, We Shrunk Ourselves" would fit that bill. It's all right there in the title; someone's going to be shrunk and this time, it's the adults. For me, it's another demon spawn of the Disney DTV sausage factory that was chugging along in the '90s. It's not so much the direction (whoa, Dean Cundey!) but the Disney sitcom script; one flat joke after the next. It's hard to sit though and - well, it's best to skip.4/10
Filipe Neto This movie is the last in the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" franchise, and I really still do not understand why it was made. Of course, for box office money. But the truth is that it ruined the franchise, basically repeating the events of the first film, but in a more boring and uninteresting way. Rick Moranis looks dumber than fun in his character, Prof. Szalinski, the kids are no longer kids, they are stupid teenagers who, most of the time, deserved to stay tiny, tailored to their talent for the film. The professor's wife, honorably retained by Marcia Strassman, is now embodied by Eve Gordon, who decidedly failed to live up to her character. The machine has long lost interest to the public. "Oh, she did it again ..." says the bored audience watching the movie. Thus, this franchise dies without glory, after committing the sin that almost all commit, by the greed of the studios: not knowing the exact moment to finish.
Kristinartist79 I just saw this movie recently with my boyfriend. This movie was okay; it was funny, but not half as great as the 1989 "honey we shrunk the kids". The only actor I believe to be from the first movie (or even the second) was Moranis. The actress that plays Diane is too young to be the same mother that was played by Strassman, who is much older and does not look anything like her. The movie was kind of funny and creative though. I guess since they had amovie with the kids being shrunk and blown up, they had to do one with the adults. But the first movie was made a decade before and the second one was made like five years before, so it was like the first one (and maybe the second one) was forgotten by the time this movie came out. I mean when the second one came out, it was only a few years later, so the same genration of children were still familiar with it. But I guess it kind of brought the first movie back so the next generation of children could enjoy the Szalinskins.
Nellaberry Possible SpolierThis is terrible. 110%. Everything from the horrific computer aided special effects, that were used on stupid,poinless things.. ( I.E. the station wagon driving down the street ) to the terrible acting by uneducated child performers ( I.E. the scene where " Jenny " drops a minute amount of Onion Dip on the table and she is told she is making a mess, to which she replies " I can't help it this stuff is good, what's in it?" [ it's onion dip what do you think is in it idiot ])and the cliches everwhere you look ( I.E. parents assumed gone, party with girlfriends gets out of control by jerky pre-adolescent uninvited boys trashing the house ). If you have this video, you should use it as kindling in your fireplace. Rick Moranis never was the best actor, but even HE could do something better than this monstrosity. Yuck...a -10 out of 10.
