12/15/2017 i think this movie is fine. it's a really ok movie in my opinion. sure the animation is not that good. but it's have a very ok plot and action scenes are really ok. but the movie some charm to it. i watch the 1963 The Nutty Professor movie and i think petty good for a movie. but i think this is ok in my opinion. it's a ok movie for kids. See more 07/15/2013 An utterly pathetic and shameful animated sequel/reboot/whatever that fails on virtually every level. See more 08/06/2010 Wasn't too bad, the animations were weird though. Kind of predictable, but I love Drake so Pfft... See more 02/14/2010 It was pretty stupid for the most part, had like 2 comical moments. The whole idea of it is dumb. See more 07/06/2009 It's amazing how Jerry's original idea has gotten new life, first as remakes with Eddie Murphy and this as well as a new Broadway musical. This is primarily geared for the 10-year old set and is all about "BEING YOURSELF", a message they deliver with the subtly of a Joe Wilson at a joint session of congress. This may be Jerry's last movie however, and for Lewis fans you gotta see it. Glad to report he's fine in very limited footage. The fact he can slide into the Julius Kelp character so easily is not surprising. He's done it in other movies and on TV. What is a bit startling is his Buddy Love. It sounds just like he did in 1963 (though not quite as arrogant as that version. He is after all, here to help his grandson). See more 04/02/2009 It was awsome! And the struggle between Harold and Jack is hilarious! And Jerry Lewis reprising his role as Professor Kelp/Buddy Love is awsome! See more Read all reviews
