Joey and Cindy Heller's parents have been shrunken to the size of ants by a powerful extraterrestrial life form, and with time quickly running out for the rest of the planet, it's up to the two quick-thinking kids to get mom and dad back up to size and send the alien menace back to the stars in a family-friendly sci-fi comedy from director Joey Travolta. The aliens may have technology that dwarfs that of anything created by humankind, but even their biggest army of virtual-reality beasts is no match for the imagination of a child. Now, as the fight for planet Earth comes to the suburbs, these cosmic creeps are about to learn an important lesson in interstellar humility.
