Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIntended as a television pilot for The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius (2002). But, when Paramount's executives were shown very early footage, and early design plans for it, they were so impressed by it, that they decided to fund it for theatrical release.
- GoofsJimmy uses a hair from his head to confirm a DNA match to enter his clubhouse. While hair itself doesn't contain DNA, the follicle from which the hair grows does have DNA. A plucked hair always contains a bit of the follicle.
- Crazy creditsDuring the credits shows us what happend to Jimmy's teacher Ms. Fowl after he shrunk her in the beginning of the movie. She is seen riding a worm to the cafeteria.
- Alternate versionsOn the VHS version, the movie opens and closes with the 90th Anniversary Paramount Pictures logo. However,on the DVD release, and on most TV prints, the 1986-2003 Paramount logo appears, which was in the original theatrical release.

Featured review
There are lots of funny lines in this animated movie and some funny characters, at least for adults. I laughed and thought it was great but when I played it for the second time, with a couple of little kids in the audience I was disappointed that most of the humor went over their heads. All of a sudden, the film wasn't as great as I had remembered (and told them it was). So.....what you think of this film, I guess might depend on your age, for one thing.
There's a nice message here for the kids, though: you can't do without your parents. Speaking of kids, the nerdy-looking fat kid obviously was the funniest in here. Everyone in the audience likes him.
One bit of warning to the older folks: keep the audio remote handy. This gets very loud in spots and needs to be turned down here and there.
