Utterly charming and captivating fantasy film ultimately rests on how charming and captivating you find Reuben's archly affected, but sweet-natured and fully realised portrait of his iconic character; if you can buy into it, this ranks with the best Burton films, seeming truly at home to Burton's signature combination of whimsy and dark undertones. Supporting cast largely play superficial foils or foes to Herman's strange and scattershot proclivities.

If you can get past the sometimes more annoying than funny quirks of the Pee-Wee persona & appreciate the core values of the character, there's quite a bit to enjoy about this. Reubens does as solid a job as ever, the supporting cast play their parts well, & a lot of the sets and scenes are a whole lot of fun. The biggest negative is that those scenes don't often link up very well, leading the plot to feel pretty disjointed. Overall, though, it's a harmless family comedy that's worth a look.
