Small Soldiers
The story begins with a strange drama. The story tells about the teenager Alan, who decided to buy a group of games embodied in elite commandos. It seems that Alan is not aware that the games were programmed with military technology. Things change when the games start, including the Chip leader in life, and begin to take their guidance seriously. These games turn into real stories beginning with the 'kill' of their enemies, the game of Gorgonites. Perhaps Alan might think that is unrealistic.

Small Soldiers deserves to be re-evaluated, which fortunately also means that it can finally be enjoyed, too.

Smart satirical action-comedy about talking action toys.

What bothered me most about Small Soldiers is that it didn't tell me where to stand--what attitude to adopt.

Typical of Dante's films, Small Soldiers is an unbroken string of pop culture in-jokes.

...wildly entertaining...

Though it starts promisingly, the picture ends as a standoff between the affection Dante and company bring to the project and its increasingly frenetic and tiresome emphasis on what special effects can make its little people do.

This live-action, animated feature has all the charm of the entirely animated Toy Story plus an audacity all of its own.

As with many films in which special effects are the real stars, the technology here commands more respect and interest than the material otherwise warrants.

Works as an adventure film and another fine Joe Dante creature feature...

It looks like the movie was edited down from a much meaner version, to our loss.

...this smells like a script slapped together around a toy-product launch.

An infomercial with the schmaltz that passes for emotion in family-aimed films.
