Honey, I Blew Up the Kid

Aside from the cute twins who played Adam this movie is relatively dull. I have the book, that has pictures from the movie, and it is practically the same.

The same actors from the first movie, minus the Thomsons, come back and they have a new addition to the family. Adam is a two-year old mischief maker who can get out of almost everything. The Szalinskis have moved to Las Vegas, and have a bigger house. Still, the place is often a mess.

Wayne has a new invention, a machine that enlarges matter, instead of shrinking it. But when an experiment goes awry, Adam is enlarged. The problem gets worse when he keeps growing due to a electromagnetic fuse. (or something like that) One of Wayne's fellow employees, Charles Hendrickson, is a typical villain. He wants to take credit for everything Wayne does, and almost gets away with it. Fortunately, h'es fired by his boss, Clifford Sterling. But that doesn't stop Charles. He later tries to take Adam away from his family to undergo tests, but Adam is eventually shrunk back down to two feet.

What could have been a better movie was a major disappointment.

My Score: 5/10.
