We return for season 5 with this obscure non-cannon choice from 1984, a movie nobody really talks about these days. This one is about a boy with an active imagination who gets caught in a spy game of life and death. For a family movie it does not shy away from the consequences of violence though it does stress the importance of family and friends.
Starring E.T.'s Henry Thomas as Davey as well as the perfectly cast Dabney Coleman in the duel role of both Davey's father and a superspy agent, it is the cast that really helps to carry this one. Espionage abounds.
They certainly don't make them like this anymore.
Randy's Score: 3/5
JD's Score: 4/5
Up Next: Braddock: Missing in Action III!
