MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Java_Joe Baby Huey was a comic book character created by the same people that made Casper, Richie Rich and all those other comics you read as a kid. He's a giant anthropomorphic duck with super strength even though he's still a baby. That's the joke. And for some reason people thought we needed a live action version of this. It's basically every single fish out of water movie you've ever seen rolled into one. He shows up, some people don't like him and are afraid of him, others want to make him a star, there's forced comedy, emphasis on the fact he's a giant baby that breaks things without meaning to and scene. That is literally the movie. I guess really young children might like it but we're talking like 4 or 5 here. Once they get older they're going to be bored silly.Give this one a pass.

Guy Hutchinson SPOILER ALERT: The film opens with David L. Lander (Squiggy from "Laverne and Shirley") meeting with some kind of Hollywood agent. Squiggy claims the dog would do a trick, but the dog does nothing. The agent demands a real animal act.But where will Squiggy find an animal act? In the next scene we get a big clue... and I mean BIG when a giant egg falls out of an egg truck. Soon after, a little boy named Nick finds the egg and Huey hatches out of it.In other words, Huey was just a short drive away from being some dude's omelet.Nick heads home where his dad (that Joe Isuzu guy) is trying to fix a toaster... or a car... or something. I don't remember exactly. He tries to fix a bunch of different things throughout the flick and it never seems to work out. Nick's mom, Marsha Brady is just in shock about Baby Huey.It's interesting to note that we have not SEEN Baby Huey yet in the film. He has been off screen for both his scenes so far. They are building him up for a big "reveal" later in the film. Of course, we all know exactly what he looks like because he is on the cover of the DVD.Perhaps they are actually NOT waiting for the reveal. Maybe they are just really ashamed of Baby Huey.Nonetheless, a few cameos later we finally see Huey as he hits a home run during Nick's little league game.The next twenty minutes or so was a bit of blur to me, but I remember a few things: Nick and Huey went to Dead Man's Gulch. It's just a cliff, but it's important later... that is if you consider ANY of this important.Huey also breaks a whole lot of things and Joe Isuzu tries to fix things. They don't really play up the connection between the two, but perhaps it's a sub conscious thing.Sorta like how Homer Simpson and Krusty the Clown look alike. The big difference here is that watching Homer and Krusty doesn't make you want to swallow a bucket of rat poison.Meanwhile, Huey is being hunted relentlessly by Squiggy.Squiggy tells Huey that he could perform at in Las Vegas.Then we see it: Baby Huey on stage at the Circus Circus. Suddenly he gets eaten by a tiger.Sadly, it was just a dream sequence.Later, when Huey goes to bed he is seen wearing a shower curtain. He also tries to sleep in top bunk and breaks the bed. The next day he breaks all of the equipment at the playground. Then he goes into Nick's class leads them in a sing along and then breaks stuff.At the same time the bad guys are plotting some ridiculous plan to capture Baby Huey. See, they want to steal the town's Easter eggs and blame it on Huey.They also do a big song and dance number. I don't care how evil you are, once you start dancing, I love you! Anyway, I don't want to spoil EVERYTHING, so get a copy of this film and see how it ends.

djeld13 Quite admittedly, this isn't the best movie in the world. But the fact that it's so camp-ish makes it better than if it had seemed terribly serious in nature. Then again, the only reason I have seen this movie so many times is that I am such a huge fan of David L. Lander (who is positively adorable here), and the inclusion of other classic TV stars is fun (if not a little sad that this is the best material some of them can get). My sister said of this movie after watching it, "It's bad, but in a good way." Very true. I love most of the music in here (but try not to laugh at a giant baby duck singing a heart-felt song about not belonging anywhere). Watch it without trying to take it too seriously; that will make all the difference!

Gwenn A seven-foot tall baby duck being raised by ex-Marcia Brady Maureen McCormick and her family is somehow accused of stealing Easter eggs and wrecking school property. It is like Big Bird's worst nightmare... and any viewer's. I caught it during a baseball rain delay and had to keep watching -- in disbelief that something this bad had been made.
