One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

AH HA HA HA HA.you need to watch this. it is hilariously bad (errmm i mean exceptional). oh my gosh the script writer was so wrong, i mean, listen to some of the things that come out of these kids mouths. so so so so good. like listen to this : "uncle gus told me not to touch it, sammie told me not to touch it, but i touched it, can we blow it". and "3 miles, that'll take us all day and half the night". as well as, wait i would not want to spoil it. i would recommend: shark boy and lava girl, if you liked this movie. but who wouldn't right. the soundtrack is also amazing. right here, here and now ow. there's only one thing left to do. right here here and now ow.

Not a lie... the worst movie I have ever seen. Hands down. In fact, you have to watch it just to see how bad it is. Don't get mislead by the first twenty minutes... that is when they were putting effort into the story and directing and it looked like it was going somewhere. You will see it start to slowly fall apart once they get on the train. My 5 year old liked it. I'm guessing that when he hits kindergarten, this movie won't get touched. And, no, I didn't get the pizza. My cousin got the pizza and pawned the movie off on me. At least it was free.The positive comments were either put up here by people involved in the movie or they are just trying to get you to watch it.Do it.I dare you. Smell the sour milk.

To put it bluntly, this movie was terrible. There are a vast number of "excuses" that people use to say that it wasn't so bad. It is a kids' movie. It stars young actors. It was filmed on a low budget. Even considering these circumstances, it was a dreadful movie. I've seen movies with a much lower budget and much younger actors, intended for a much younger audience, end up much more entertaining than this.This movie was made with very little passion. It seems that the director knew from the beginning that he was going to make an amateur, generic, cliché film, and didn't try to do anything beyond that. And judging by the surnames of a few of the actors, I get the feeling that he cast his family members in roles; it wouldn't surprise me if he had given them out as birthday presents. In this film so many tired, over-used elements were re-used shamelessly. There are one too many slime/manure/teasing jokes, and the entire plot centers around a bunch of pre-teens with the help of their (surprisingly old-looking) 8th grade big brother, stopping their "evil principal" from changing history. So these kids go back in time to prevent a crime from being committed. This movie had so many chances to be good, but didn't take any of them. It's a great example of extremely lazy directing. (Take the "train scene," for example, each of the extras does exactly the same thing, faces the same direction, and does nothing.) Seriously, a movie has to TRY to be this bad. I actually got it for free on DVD when I bought a pizza. And the DVD didn't even contain subtitles. I feel like the director probably said to his assistant director, "Nah, you can fake that, no one will notice," WAY too many times in this film.Predictable, immature, simple, badly acted, badly written. (And I won't even start about this movie's sad, sad attempt at special effects.) The only positive is that maybe very young children will enjoy it, if they don't get lost in the vague plot. ....Maybe.

This movie would have been bearable otherwise,but the kids' acting is reminiscent of a hastily produced school play, especially the fat black kid, who seems to be enjoying the camera rather than being in his character.(By the way, he got entirely too much screen time). Austin Nichols (Sammy)was believable and sincere and did a lot to salvage this feeble attempt at entertainment. What's so cool about assaulting innocent adults on a tourist train. Is that adventure? The forced tears in the jail scene was almost unbearable. Might entertain your small children, but wouldn't recommend it otherwise. Glad I got it free as a pizza premium and didn't waste money on it. Blurb on the DVD jacket seems to compare this movie with HOLES and SPY KIDS........I don't think so.
