This live-action version of E.B. White's novel doesn't have quite the magic of, say, Toy Story. Instead of entertainment the whole family can be enthralled with, Stuart Little is squarely aimed, and successfully so, at the 4- to 10-year-old watcher. Does this make it a bad family film? Not in the slightest. The gee-whiz visual effects (created by original Star Wars wizard John Dykstra) and the film's ebullient wholesomeness make this a welcome addition to the home library. In E.B. White's world, it's hardly surprising that human parents would adopt "outside their species." The smooth-talking mouse Stuart (voiced by Michael J. Fox) seems the perfect new child for parents Geena Davis and Hugh Laurie, especially with an adorable wardrobe of very small sweaters and pants. Harder is fitting in with the Little's family cat, Snowbell (voiced by Nathan Lane, who also deftly voiced Timon in director Rob Minkoff's last feature, The Lion King). The simple story deals with Stuart trying to fit in with his new life, including big brother George (Jerry Maguire's scene-stealing Jonathan Lipnicki). And of course there's an adventure when Snowbell's schemes lead Stuart into true danger, in the form of the devious plans of an alley cat named Smokey (voiced by Chazz Palminteri). Brisk--85 minutes--amusing, and tolerably cute, Stuart Little stands tall. Two curios: The effects are so cleanly done that we could call Stuart the first successfully computer-animated actor, and the screenplay was cowritten by M. Night Shyamalan, who made bigger waves in 1999 writing and directing The Sixth Sense. --Doug Thomas

for undiscriminating toddlers August 30, 2008
My almost-three year old loves this movie and watches it repeatedly. After all, there's a cuddly mouse doing people things, there's cats, and about half the movie consists of chases of one sort or another. There's also a lot of seamless and convincing animation (except for the "talking" mouths on the cats, which looks goofy). Any fans of E.B. White's book Stuart Little will be wise to avoid the movie, as they have nothing in common except the existence of a mouse-sized boy. It's as if the Hollywood folks made the movie first, and then decided to put a famous name on it, without any care as to the actual words in the book. It's too bad. The movie's plot is mostly fine for kids, who haven't learned to watch critically yet or expect self-consistency, coherence, or variation from standard hackneyed scenes and themes. Adults will find fuzzy wuzzy cuteness, mainly, and be massively unsurprised by any of the plot "twists". If you must view it, Rent - don't buy it. If you have an almost-three year old, be especially careful not to buy it, or you will be forcibly exposed to it time and again. At least rentals have a due date and an excuse to return the tape to the store.
 Stuart Little without Mr Whites charm June 11, 2008
This movie is visually very very cute. Hugh Laurie is terrific as always. The mouse is darling. But the storyline does not resemble the book much, and I was much disturbed by the evil fake parents who come to take him from the adoptive ones. This is a movie for little children yet it shows Stuart being led to his death by his supposed mouse parents. When will disney stop making movies about evil mothers? Children can be entertained without being terrorized by such stupid ideas. Read the book to your child, watch a Wooster and Jeeves movie, enjoy Michael Fox in something else, and skip this one..

I ordered this movie for my son's birthday. He was too young when this series came out. He is starting to enjoy movies that aren't always animated. Lovely story. Recieved this DVD on time and brand new. I will continue to shop at Amazon
Stuart is cute April 29, 2008
My wife Mechelle and I went to see this movie as our first date. She made a wise choice as it is a very cute movie. I would definitely recommend it to both the young and old in your household. This movie stars many great actors (both in person and voiced) including Michael J. Fox, Geena Davis, Hugh Laurie, Chazz Palminteri, David Alan Grier.
