Customer Reviews

1st Movie Was Good. The 2nd Sucks
The original Dennis the Menace was a pretty good movie. It was funny and I thought the acting was good. The second movie had a whole different set of actors that just did a horrible job. Not only that, but the plot to the second movie just stunk. There wasn't anything really funny or exciting about the second movie either.

I would probably recommend this dvd for the first movie, but definitely not for the second. If you can buy the dvd with just the 1st movie for cheaper, I would recommend you do that.

Good Deal
This double feature is worth your buy. I have 3 kids ranging from 5 - 12yrs and we ALL enjoy these movies - especially the original. Laugh out loud funny:)

Oh Mr. Wilsonnn......
Dennis the Menace (1993) Hank Ketcham's comic strip character is brought to life as the latest attempt by John Hughes to cash in on his own Home Alone series. It's really too bad, because the film is so perfectly cast: Mason Gamble (Spy Hard) is an acceptable Dennis; Lea Thompson (Back to the Future) and Robert Stanton (Bob Roberts) couldn't be more likable as Dennis' parents; and Walter Matthau and Joan Plowright are absolutely perfect as Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. But the film, which starts off well, eventually slides directly into Home Alone territory, especially with the introduction of a thief character (Christopher Lloyd-Back to the Future) whom Dennis trips up in that painful "Kevin vs Harry and Marv" way. This one gets sooo painful, in fact, it's nearly unwatchable. Still, the kids are sure to love, so there will probably be a viewing in your future if you're a parent.
