| Plot |
| E.B. White 's classic children's story is brought to the screen in this fantasy, which combines computer-animated characters with a cast of live actors. Mrs. Little ( Geena Davis ), Mr. Little ( Hugh Laurie ), and their son George ( Jonathan Lipnicki ) live in a brownstone near New York's Central Park. The Littles have decided to adopt a younger brother for George, and while they're meeting the children at an orphanage, they are greeted by a mouse named Stuart (voice of Michael J. Fox ), who can talk, walk upright, wear clothes, and do nearly anything a human child can do. The Littles are so taken with Stuart that they decide to adopt him, and soon the rest of the family is just as charmed by Stuart -- with the possible exception of Snowbell (voice of Nathan Lane ), their house cat. The cast of humans includes Jennifer Tilly , Bruno Kirby , and Dabney Coleman ; animal voices are contributed by Chazz Palminteri and Steve Zahn , Jim Doughan , and David Alan Grier . -- Mark Deming |
