"Small Soldiers" Review
9/10
1998
A Joe Dante Film
Protagonist(s): David Cross, Jay Mohr, Gregory Smith, Frank Langella, Kirsten Dunst
Antagonist(s): Tommy Lee Jones
Run-time: 1 hour 48 minutes
When a new toy line hits the market, it causes a greater stir than the manufacturers had anticipated.
Because children have such short attention spans toy manufacturers are fairly competitive in putting the newest and best out on the market. Often this is the result of months of research, but occasionally inspiration. It is always sad for an artist to have his work perverted by the 'man' to cater to smaller minds.
The use of models instead of digitally adding them makes the scenes so very convincing. The acting talent is acceptable. The plot is simple. The effects are decent.
I recommend this film for adult "Toy Story" fans.
Reviewing different things; food, films, music, books, games etc. It is said that those who can't do; teach. Those who can't teach; critique.

A change has been made in regards to the Adult status of the Blog, due to the reviews on Alcoholic Beverages, and some for the violent games and films reviewed. Wouldn't want to set a bad example.
