Product Details

Developing positive self-esteem and persevering in the face of difficulties are fundamental parts of growing up, but when 12-year old orphan Lewis (Daniel Hansen and Jordan Fry) can't seem to get adopted or make his inventions work despite repeated efforts, he begins to seriously doubt himself and his abilities as an inventor. A CGI picture by Disney with great animation and a fresh vision of what the future might look like, Meet The Robinsons follows Lewis from his lonesome days at the orphanage to his crushing failure at the school science fair when his newly invented memory scanner won't work. Then, an odd boy named Wilbur Robinson (Wesley Singerman) shows up to warn Lewis about the mysterious "Bowler Hat Guy" (Stephen J Anderson) lurking around the science fair, an evil man Wilbur claims is from the future. The next thing Lewis knows, he and Wilbur are on route to the future via time machine. Once there, Lewis meets the very quirky, extended Robinson family with whom he feels oddly at home. As the search for the Bowler Hat Man and his constant companion Doris (Ethan Sandler) becomes more and more dangerous, the Robinson family becomes crucial in keeping Lewis safe. In the end, Lewis returns to the present with a whole new inner strength, a sense of his place in the world, the knowledge that his actions directly affect others, and an optimistic determination to "keep moving forward." While comparisons with the Back to the Future films are inevitable, Meet the Robinsons stands apart from its predecessors as its own, thoroughly entertaining family film. (Ages 4 and older)

Included is the seven-minute 1938 short Mickey Mouse's Boat Builder in which Mickey Mouse, Goofy, and Donald Duck order and assemble a do-it-yourself boat kit and launch an impressive ocean liner dubbed the "Queen Minnie." Needless to say, hilarity reigns throughout and following the boat-building process. --Tami Horiuchi

(2 stars) - Not a good film for children.
If you were an adopted child, this was not a good experience. You go back through time, and it is the only chance you will have to see your mother. To turn away at the last minute, you have pined for this moment your entire childhood. The whole concept stinks!

That bouncing around with very little plotline also stinks!

(5 stars) - LOVE IT
Great movie!! Love the ideas in it. SHows a lot about how things are when you are young, and how things end up when you grow up! Very cool! MUST SEE!!!

(5 stars) - amazing
I don't usually like movies made in the new millenium (The Incredibles, Chicken Little, Cloudy with a chance of meatballs) but I have to say...this movie was amazing. And so hilarious too! Wilbur's quirky family is the icing on the cake. And it has a really great message- failure does not mean you are not good enough, but rather it is something you can learn from. This movie made me cry and it made me laugh. Love. Love. Love it.

(4 stars) - A Good Fun Kids Movie :)
I liked this movie. It was full of positive messages, like "Keep Moving Forward". It also was positive toward adoption and I liked that. Good, fun movie, that I wasn't embarrassed to watch with the kids. That is rare nowdays.

(5 stars) - Movie Meet the Robinsons
Great Disney Movie!! One of my top favorites!
Also, great movie for children!
