    • Roger Ebert

      Although the material does indeed involve young protagonists, no effort is made to show their lives in a way todays kids can identify with. This movie must seem as odd to them as a foreign film. ( Read More )
    • Variety Staff

      The writers have created cardboard cutouts instead of flesh and blood characters. ( Read More )
    • Joshua Rothkopf

      Frighteningly adept attention grabbers to a lad, these nouveaux Dead End Kids gambol to a brassy, forgettable score; the anachronistic proto hip hop touches rankle, though Jack Feldman s lyrics provide the odd witty touch. ( Read More )
    • Hal Hinson

      With his flaming red beard and hairpiece, hes a galvanizing Dickensian capitalist, a gloating fiend drunk with his own power. ( Read More )
    • James Berardinelli

      Its a bit of a throwback and a solid family film and, at the time, represented a well intentioned leap of faith of the sort that studios rarely take. ( Read More )
