User Review
*** out of ****
Rating: 7/10
"Dennis the Menace" is unique in its own way because it's observant. This
movie made me laugh at stuff i've always laughed at and things i'd never
thought I would laugh at. The film can be surprisingly innocent at times
and sincere and heartwarming. And the kid who plays Dennis is a way better
actor than Macaulay Culkin. I liked the film for its imagination and
humor. A good film. I also liked how they showed Dennis trying to resist
the temptation to do something bad but can't resist.
