Uptight New York City executive, Michael Cromwell, pursues his soon-to-be ex-wife to South America and returns home with the son he never knew he had—a boy raised in a tribal village in Brazil. Armed with only his blowgun, the 13-year-old Mimi-Siku discovers that the world outside his jungle home is indeed a strange place.

Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Gently humorous and moving.

rotten:
Roughly half of Tim Allen's latest comedy is hilarious-stupid, and the rest is monotonous-stupid.

rotten:
Simple truths are often the most effective, but in this instance they are only banal and mildly amusing.

rotten:
Typically for Disney, the villains aren't made of very stern stuff, nor indeed is fey spear-carrying Mimi-Siku.

Mildly caustic, sentimental and slow.
