Lucas ist zehn Jahre alt und äußerst unglücklich. Vor kurzem ist er mit seinen Eltern umgezogen, doch wird er von den Kindern in der neuen Nachbarschaft gehänselt. Deshalb drangsaliert Lucas im Hinterhof Ameisen, um seinen Frust abzubauen. Doch das gefällt den schlauen Insekten überhaupt nicht, weshalb sie Lucas eines Tages einen Zaubertrank verabreichen, der ihn auf Ameisengröße schrumpfen lässt. In seiner neuen Umgebung muss Lucas sich mühsam zurechtfinden, doch nach und nach lernt er die Tiere besser kennen und findet sogar Freunde unter ihnen. Doch dann tauch ein windiger Kammerjäger auf, der die Kolonie vernichten soll. Kann Lucas den Ameisen helfen? (Super RTL)

A totally average animated film in all respects, with neither much humour nor an interesting story. Another variation on the "reformed bastard" theme we've seen a thousand times before. But thanks to the running time, it's quite easy to sit through.

In all respects an average picture for young kids which, thanks to the “action" scenes and it being relatively short, can be lived through relatively problem free. Only the parts with the wasps are any good. The rest is a harmless or even uninteresting kids’ movie with a very forced lesson at the end. The third * is for the experience I had with the IMAX 3D version which clearly demonstrates what potential the future of movies holds in store.

Excellent animated anthills, grass, water, and various present creatures in the story that is great to watch, especially if you have siblings next to you who are having a royal time. Classic aspects of a family animated film, such as an important grumpy male character (Zoc) or an infectiously optimistic or totally depressed pairing (here, in the first case, a bee and a strange snail(?)). Surprisingly nice thing that can lift your mood.

A pleasant adventure for the whole family that never disappoints. The animation is nice and there are quite a few funny moments, but I still can't shake the feeling that I've seen all this before... and better. 65%
