Movie meme - day 16

16. A film that's more adventure than action.

I think Disney's animated Meet the Robinsons fits the bill.

Lewis is a young and brilliant inventor. He also an orphan living in an orphanage. Unfortunately for Lewis and the potential adoptive parents, his interviews don't tend to go well. For the upcoming science fair, Lewis decides to invent a memory machine to extract the few memories he has of his mother. At the fair, Lewis is astonished to be confronted with a teen boy called Wilbur who claims to be a time traveller in need of his help.

I can't remember why I watched this in the first place but it's rather adorable. Wilbur's family (the Robinsons) are completely crazy and take Lewis to their hearts.

The film's rather quirky and silly but it's a lot of fun. The slender plot (stop the bowler-hatted villain) is pretty much nonsense but it's enjoyable nonsense.

There are a couple of action scenes but mostly it's about Lewis finding his family.
