Charmingly adapted from the book by E. B. White,
a New York couple adopt a talking mouse for their son, but it incurs the wrath of the family cat.
Wittily written and directed, Stuart Little seamlessly
marries computer animation with live action to make a perfectly enjoyable children's film for the whole family to appreciate.
A sequel was released in 2002, but wasn't anywhere as
impressive, either storywise or technically.
