It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Blistering performances.

The acting in this movie is really good.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

For what it's worth it's a good movie. Dennis is cute and unintentionally mischievous making him a pest to his neighbor Mr. Wilson. The story's not the greatest but it's good enough to be believed. Everything seems to fall into place such as the gags and the lines. The movie basically chronicles the misadventures both Dennis and Mr. Wilson face everyday. Christopher Lloyd's character as the reclusive serial killer is strange yet fits in still. In conclusion the movie's a great family movie and i'd recommend it to anyone.

There are so many wonderful family movies during the 90s, and Dennis the Menace is one of them. Personally, it's one of my favourite family movies out there - very entertaining! What I enjoyed the most about this movie was the humour. The story is fun. It's a movie that can teach you some valuable life lessons too. I use to watch this a countless number of times as a child, and just fell in love with it.

Cash-grab adaptation of Hank Ketcham's comic strip centered around a "mischievous" ("annoying" is a far better word) boy Gamble and cranky next door neighbor Matthau. Although one can find many issues with Gamble's portrayal of Dennis Mitchell—one being that the character just doesn't seem like a little boy of the 1990s—he and Matthau end up making a pretty decent duo; while Plowright, Stanton and Thompson all fit nicely into supporting roles. Perhaps the greatest thing about this movie is the chillingly disgusting drifter, played excellently by Christopher Lloyd, who creeps slowly through the cookie-cutter town like a python in a rose-garden. Lots of dull jokes, but the movie never ceases to be boring. Very anti-climatic. Followed by direct-to-video sequel and Saturday morning cartoon.**½ (out of four)

First of all it has to be said that this film has no relationship whatsoever with the cartoon comic 'Dennis the Menace' you may have read as a child. With that out of the way you can now enjoy the film for what it is, not how you may have remembered a character from your youth.The film is superbly cast with Walter Matthau playing the grumpy old 'Mr Wilson' and a young Mason Gamble playing the role of 'Dennis'. Matthau really is on top form as strong as he was with Jack Lemmon in the 'Grumpy Old Men' films. Gamble is fantastic as the adorable but mischievous 5 year old and shows an acting ability way beyond his years with superb comic timing and wonderful catch lines.Full of laughs, crazy antics, hilarious childhood expression and the odd touching moment too, this is an entertaining film that keeps on giving scene after scene. It's a Sunday afternoon film to watch either on your own or with the kids, either way it won't disappoint!
