well and now i know where tin soldier ( 1995 ) and bogus ( 1996 ) come from and though why there be a need to make the same dull and silly movie three time i can not tell . henry thomas be much well in e. t. and and even he seem to realize there just isn not much to work with in this tired story of the boy with a penchant for fantasy who isn not believe when something rather fantastic actually happen . this story fall flat because the main character and davy and can not make decision or do much of anything without adult direction . what kid want to see that . christina nigra and who play opposite thomas a kim and definitely out act him and but her character doesn not offer any more model of competence than his . would you want your kid to be like these . nah .
