Developing positive self-esteem and persevering in the face of difficulties are fundamental parts of growing up, but when 12-year old orphan Lewis (Daniel Hansen and Jordan Fry) can’t seem to get adopted or make his inventions work despite repeated efforts, he begins to seriously doubt himself and his abilities as an inventor. A CGI picture by Disney with great animation and a fresh vision of what the future might look like, Meet The Robinsons follows Lewis from his lonesome days at the orphanage to his crushing failure at the school science fair when his newly invented memory scanner won’t work. Then, an odd boy named Wilbur Robinson (Wesley Singerman) shows up to warn Lewis about the mysterious “Bowler Hat Guy” (Stephen J Anderson) lurking around the science fair, an evil man Wilbur claims is from the future. The next thing Lewis knows, he and Wilbur are on route to the future via time machine. Once there, Lewis meets the very quirky, extended Robinson family with whom he feels oddly at home. As the search for the Bowler Hat Man and his constant companion Doris (Ethan Sandler) becomes more and more dangerous, the Robinson family becomes crucial in keeping Lewis safe. In the end, Lewis returns to the present with a whole new inner strength, a sense of his place in the world, the knowledge that his actions directly affect others, and an optimistic determination to “keep moving forward.” While comparisons with the Back to the Future films are inevitable, Meet the Robinsons stands apart from its predecessors as its own, thoroughly entertaining family film. (Ages 4 and older)

Included is the seven-minute 1938 short Mickey Mouse’s Boat Builder in which Mickey Mouse, Goofy, and Donald Duck order and assemble a do-it-yourself boat kit and launch an impressive ocean liner dubbed the “Queen Minnie.” Needless to say, hilarity reigns throughout and following the boat-building process. –Tami Horiuchi

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Interesting plot but too abrupt ending
Interesting plot for an animated film. Like many other films, the ending seemed too abrupt and left me not 100% satisfied.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Keep Moving Forward
I have been trying to watch MEET THE ROBINSONS for nearly a year now. Each time I sat down to watch it, my three year old needed mommy for something else. Finally, she, herself, is old enough to enjoy it, so we all sat down together to watch this Disney film. What fun we had!

Disney did a nice job with MEET THE ROBINSONS. This film is beautifully animated, had a nice, happy story, and puts a smile on the of each member of the family. With the added bonus of a little cartoon sci … Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very inventive, fun, with a very weird family…
I adore this movie. Not only is it good clean fun (so my sensitive kids can handle it) the storyline is really, really fun — and funny. And so convoluted that you gotta watch it twice just to make sure you get it all — and that’s something fun to look forward to. Loved it. Just loved it. The frogs singing Sinatra were only one of the high points…

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Disney flick in ages
We really enjoyed this and wish we’d caught it earlier! The characters and smart and dynamic and the plot isn’t dumbed down. Adults will enjoy catching the references to movies like “Fargo,” “Benny & Joon” and “Pulp Fiction.” Our 2 and a 1/2 year old was riveted although the plot was mostly beyond him. He loved all the flying spaceships, robots and dinosaurs nonetheless.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good job!
Everything was handled well and I would definitely order from here again! Good job!
