3/10. The story starts off with letting us know about the Disguisey family background. Though taking no time off to let us know about Pistachios father and mother. Pistachio is a 20 year old, I guess, who likes big butts on women (like the rest of the family) and has a weird high pitched accent. Anyway, the father and mother are taken away, and Pistachio has to find them. The bad guy who takes them wants Frabbrizio, who gave up disguising himself long ago, to steal items of importance around the world such as the Liberty Bell, an Apollo Space Module and the U.S. Constitution. He always laughs when he gets the item, but then he farts. Back to Pistachio, his grandfather shows up after 23 years of them not seeing each other, and he "helps" Pistachio.
I firstly get this off, I had highed expectations for this movie when I saw the trailers for it. Really, I did. The camera angles were good, but they used stop action photography, and faster frame rates sometimes. Personally, I don't like films that kind of stop, or go slowly every 5 minutes. It drives me up the wall.
One of the better things in the movie was Dana Cavey, who plays Pistachio. Though, he also wrote the script and came up with some bad names for his characters. Where does Pistachio come from? The ice cream flavor? When you look at the movie at first glance, you would have thought that they would have done voice overs for all of his characters. I was watching the DVD extras, and he could do all of the voices mentioned in the video plus more. I thought his George W. Bush impersonation was quite funny, along with some of the others.
Some of the other characters were ok. Bowman was the bad guy and had an immensly bad farting problem. It was funny the first time and a little less so the second time, but you expected it the rest of the movie. Like I said earlier, you don't know too much about the other characters, so I can't really explain them.
All in all, rent this video if you have children under the age of 10 or 11 because they'll probably like it a lot better than you will.

1.5/10 I rented this movie because I was expecting some good humor. It sucked! The plot was insanely retarded, something on par or even lower than Spy Kids. The humor was too juvenile for someone under eight, but most parents probably wouldn't approve of their preschooler or second grader watching a movie about a guy obsessed with women's butts. So I wouldn't recommend it for anyone at all.
