Member Rating:  
Comedy icon Jerry Lewis revisits one of his most famous film characters in this belated, animated sequel to the beloved 1963 classic of the same name. It's been decades since clumsy Professor Julius Kelp (voice of Jerry Lewis) created the magical elixir that transformed him into a smooth-talking ladies man, but when Julius' grandson Harold (voice of Drake and Josh star Drake Bell) gets his hands on the secret formula, the familiar tale gets an exciting new twist. An adolescent misfit who never really fit in with the crowd, Harold becomes infinitely more confident and suave after whipping up a batch of the elixir and taking it for a test run. Now, as Harold's emerging ego begins to turn destructive, the young schoolboy must learn how to contend with his fears and insecurities without the aid of any questionable concoctions from the lab. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This was a perfect movie for a family night-in. It's very funny and we have a great laugh each time we watch it. Most of all it teaches kids a good lesson on being themselves.

    whereas the original can be for the older crowd, this one is the hyper, ADD version for kids. moves quickly and is clever in some ways like the old one but i do feel the original is better. good to hear jerry lewis' voice, however. i watched this for curiosity sake and missed the old, timeless version. honestly, the story is pretty much the same, kids may enjoy.

    Great entertainment for the kids with learning lessons on how to like yourself. Great hearing Jerry Lewis as himself and Buddy Love from the original movie I remembered as a kid. Great family show.
