Premise: A young orphan gets a glimpse of the family he wants to have, but is focused on finding his past.
Review: A decent animated film where the impossible seems possible and you have to let go of what holds you back in order to move towards the future your dreams are made of.
Lewis is a young boy who was abandoned at an orphanage by his mother. He grows up as a science whiz, dreaming of trying to find his mother. During a science fair, he meets a villain from the future who wants to ruin his life, but is saved by another young boy about his age - Wilbur, also from the future. Wilbur takes Lewis back to meet his family, and discovers things about himself and those around him in the present, by seeing a possible outcome of his actions.
He learns to appreciate what is around him, to let go of the past, and look forward.
The film is pretty straight-forward, the animation is good, and the characters are somewhat memorable - the Bowler Hat Guy, DOR-15, the Robinsons themselves - although in the futuristic type animated films, it seems like a Disney-fied version of the Jimmy Neutron movie and series.
Overall: Mediocre
