SHORTS (Theatrical Release USA 2008)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 2.9|5.0 Starsìì

Shorts—nothing new here—is plagued with unclear writing. The plot line is difficult to follow for younger children. All in all, the film is a bit disappointing.

Storyline

When a small town discovers Toby Thompson (Jimmy Bennett) has a wishing rock, everyone wants it.
