Small Soldiers
The story is about a group of games that look like elite commandos, as these games seem to be turning into reality. The story began when teenager Alan bought these exotic games and he was unaware that the games were programmed with military technology. Alan's life began to change when he knew that those games had come back to life including the Chip leader in life, and began to take their guidance seriously in Alan's life. These games turn into real stories that have turned Alan's life into an unexpected real war.

It looks like the movie was edited down from a much meaner version, to our loss.January 01, 2000
This live-action, animated feature has all the charm of the entirely animated Toy Story plus an audacity all of its own.January 01, 2000
As with many films in which special effects are the real stars, the technology here commands more respect and interest than the material otherwise warrants.June 12, 2003
Typical of Dante's films, Small Soldiers is an unbroken string of pop culture in-jokes.April 07, 2007
Smart satirical action-comedy about talking action toys.October 07, 2013
Works as an adventure film and another fine Joe Dante creature feature...February 14, 2001
Though it starts promisingly, the picture ends as a standoff between the affection Dante and company bring to the project and its increasingly frenetic and tiresome emphasis on what special effects can make its little people do.October 20, 2005
An infomercial with the schmaltz that passes for emotion in family-aimed films.January 01, 2000
What bothered me most about Small Soldiers is that it didn't tell me where to stand--what attitude to adopt.January 01, 2000
...wildly entertaining...April 12, 2002
...this smells like a script slapped together around a toy-product launch.October 08, 2014
Small Soldiers deserves to be re-evaluated, which fortunately also means that it can finally be enjoyed, too.
