Dennis the Menace

One of my favorite films as a kid, its entertaining for the adults to watch as well. Some great writing & camerawork.

One of those films that the characters and situation do there work! Simply brilliant!

This movie is nothing but a Mr. Wilson torture fest.

I watched this cartoon every morning, before starting my day when I was out of school for the summer. It always put me in a good mood.

I watched this movie all the time when I was a child. Fast forward to 2020, me aged 35, I randomly thought of this movie and mentioned to my husband about how much I loved it.

A wonderful family film, I always liked this a lot more than Home Alone but it never got as much attention as that film. It's a great watch for all ages.

Until it was obvious that Jay North was entering puberty the Dennis The Menace Show ran for four years. After that some of Dennis's antics might have put him in juvenile court The only child of the adult Mitchells Herbert Anderson and Gloria Henry, Hank Ketcham's cartoon urchin was played by Jay North who had the right peroxide blond look for the part as Ketcham drew him.

Comic strip creation Dennis terrorises his grouchy neighbour Mr Wilson and encounters a creepy burglar.This movie has all the ingredients to be excellent.

Unfortunately - This is what happens when you take a single-panelled, one-note-joke comic strip and attempt to flesh it out into a half-hour, laugh-a-minute, TV sitcom (circa 1960).And, unless your overall expectations for enjoyable and inspired escapist entertainment is on the low side - Then - This TV series is gonna quickly become painfully predictable at its every twist and turn (along its well-worn path).
