Features: DVD, Spanish, Pan and Scan (TV Format), Aspect Ratio 1.85:1, Dolby Digital (5.1), English, Subtitled, Dubbed & Subtitled
Join the fun when the Little family adopts an adorably spunky boy named Stuart (voiced by Michael J. Fox), who looks a lot like a mouse. Mr. and Mrs. Little (Hugh Laurie and Geena Davis) fall in love with Stuart right away, but their older son George (Jonathan Lipnicki) isn't so sure what to make of his new brother, and the family's white cat, Snowbell (voiced by Nathan Lane), devises a dastardly plan to get Stuart out of the house...permanently. State-of-the-art special effects, laugh-out-loud comedy and rip-roaring hijinks make this the biggest adventure a Little can have.
"A family adventure filled with excitement, fun and one absolutely adorable mouse!" George Pennacchio, KABC-TV
"[The film] isn't just great fun. It's an uproariously good time." Desson Howe, Washington Post
Editor's Note
Based on the novel by E.B. White, this is the heartwarming story of Stuart Little, a charming mouse who is adopted by a human family, to the disgust of the housecat and his new brother George. The tale unfolds as Stuart grows accustomed to his new role, eventually winning over everyone he meets. Seamless technical effects make this a work of entertainment that even the most jaded of filmgoers will fall for.

"...The true star is Stuart, a seamless blend of photorealistic CGI animation and Michael J. Fox....It's a pleasure to sit back and watch them act their little digital hearts out..." 08/01/2000 p.90 USA Today
"...There's something to be said about the wonders of technology, and Stuart is a digital delight from the tip of his twitchy pink nose to the end of his tail..." 12/17/1999 p.10E James Berardinelli's ReelViews 7 of 10
...a lighthearted adventure with a heartfelt message about the meaning of family. And, while the film is primarily aimed at the under-10 crowd, filmmaker Rob Minkoff (co-director of The Lion King) establishes a tone that adults will appreciate. Everyone in this movie takes everything with such a sense of deadpan seriousness that it's actually amusing. I kept wondering how some of the actors could deliver their lines with straight faces.
