Throughout watching practically this entire movie, I had a stupid grin on my face. That's the kind of film this is.
It's cheesy, sentimental, substandard, and predictable. . . . and I enjoyed it.
Before watching it, I had never seen an episode of the classic sitcom ''Leave it to Beaver'', from which this movie is based, but I was acquainted enough with the material to expect some Dennis the Menace type antics. And that's what I got.
It's hard to figure out if the movie is winking at us; it just seems so cheerfully absurd!
It basically follows the story of Beaver, a trouble-prone young boy, and his adventures and misadventures. The film's setting is in a suburban neighbourhood stuck somewhere between 1950 and 1990.
Although I was really entertained, this movie's definitely not very good.
But if you want a heartwarming and gentle film that's very ridiculous, you might want to check this one out.
