Description:
When Noah and Emma Wilder discover a special box on the beach, they open it and unlock an exciting adventure beyond imagination. Inside they find Mimzy, a magical stuffed rabbit along with other mystical toys, which give the children exceptional powers of their own. Able to move objects with their minds and to solve complex equations, these new wonder kids begin to attract the attention of their parents, teachers... and even the FBI. Surrounding the phenomenon of Mimzy is an awesome secret ¿ one that holds the key to saving the future of all mankind.

Amazon.com:
Comparisons with E.T. are inevitable, but the more modest The Last Mimzy is based on the classic short story "Mimzy Were the Borogoves," by Lewis Padgett (a pseudonym for husband-and-wife writing team Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore), that anticipated Steven Spielberg's extraterrestrial fantasy by nearly four decades. Chris O'Neil and Rhiannon Leigh Wryn give winning, naturalistic performances as siblings Noah and Emma, whose lives are transformed by a box of mysterious objects they find on the beach outside the family's Seattle vacation home. Among its contents is a stuffed rabbit that Emma names Mimzy and becomes quite attached. Noah and Emma are your typical outsiders. He is not good at sports, and she is interested in astronomy and plays the violin. But the objects work wonders on them. Their brainpower increases exponentially, Noah is able to drive a golf ball hundreds of yards, and Emma begins to communicate telepathically with Mimzy, who reveals his true identity and purpose. Rainn Wilson of The Office displays an off-center charm as Mr. White, Noah's New Age-y science teacher, who discovers similarities between Noah's intricate notebook doodlings and ancient renderings of the universe ("This is so out of my league," he marvels at one point), and becomes involved in Mimzy's back-to-the-future quest. Timothy Hutton and Joely Richardson are solid as the understandably confounded and increasingly concerned parents. Michael Clarke Duncan is a menacing FBI agent who, invoking the Patriot Act, arrests the family after Noah inadvertently causes a citywide blackout with one of the futuristic objects. The Last Mimzy may not reach E.T.'s spectacular heights, but as thoughtfully adapted for the screen by Bruce Joel Rubin (Ghost) and Toby Emmerich (Frequency), it is a transporting, idea-rich family film that is free of gratuitous coarse language (save for Mr. White's offhand classroom use of the word "screw") or bathroom humor. --Donald Liebenson

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Terrible, terrible movie
I took two younger girls to see this movie, and all THREE of us agreed that it was a total "waste" of time... Everyone who keeps saying that there is "something for everyone" is sorely mistaken. Coming from a Christian home, I was extremely uncomfortable with all of the "new age" propaganda (which is NOT like Disney magic in the slightest) and bizarre things that were going on. Watching teachers "read" the palm of a 5 year old (or how-ever old she was) was actually disturbing to me. As if parents ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome!
I saw in the screen and it's fun to have at home to see it again whenever I want to with my kids and their friends



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - What?!?!?
Couldn't stand it. Stopped watching after the teacher got involved with the science fair- about an hour in, I think. I thought that maybe the movie was a slow builder- lots of exposition that would eventually pay off. All I got was some half-hearted acting, a pair of not-that-cute kids who carry around alien technology. You'd think there would be more drama. It also had some kind of preachy- the blood of the earth is on your hands if you don't tune into nature more often message. Can't say if ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nice and pleasant family movie
I rented this movie when it came out earlier last year and it was so good that I am probably going to rent it again. I was able to follow the story line easily but after a year and a half I forgot some of the major points. But I do remember it was a great sci-fi movie that centers around the lives of two children (Noah and Emma)who find a box in the beach and when they open it, it drastically changes their lives. All sorts of supernatural things happen and the children can see into different dimensions ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - will mimzy return in a sequel ? i hope so...
there are so many movies out there and sometimes you cant seem to find anything on 200 channels. then you come across the last mimzy. should i check it out ? yes and i did. i was very glad i did. it's a fun family movie that makes you laugh, cry and wonder. it's an adventurous story about 2 siblings, emma and noah ( i believe it's their movie debut )who find a box on the sea shore of the the family's summer house and soon find it's contents are much more serious then anyone in the film. it moves at a very ...
