It appears these are just plot devices to heighten the movie’s sense of mystery. It is not as if the makers of THE LAST MIMZY are out to get elementary schoolchildren into palm reading and Tibetan mysticism. Mimzy comes across as a lifeless stuffed animal that hums. Like in ET, the screenwriters imply that Mimzy is dying and needs to get home quickly, but, unlike ET, they fail to develop Mimzy into a character about whom you care. Palm readings of Emma’s hand reveal her to contain a remarkably pure genetic code – just what Mimzy was sent back in time to locate. After playing with the objects in Mimzy’s time capsule, Jo is inspired to draw mystic carpet patterns that exactly match drawings of the universe done by Tibetan monks centuries before. Sadly, the movie veers from its science fiction roots and ventures into mysticism. With the help of the contents of the Mimzy’s time capsule, Jo goes from C- student to scientific genius. The Mimzy (a stuffed bunny rabbit with futuristic Intel chips inside) is found in a time capsule by a little girl, Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn), and her brother, Jo (Joely Richardson), while spending time at the family’s vacation home. The movie opens with a desperate scientist somewhere in the future sending “the last mimzy” back in time with the hope it will return with the pure genetic code necessary to save human life. It’s as if someone undercooked a soup with 50 different vegetables in it. Regrettably, it also throws in palm reading and the “wisdom” of Tibet. It is spiced with a workaholic father, a boy who uses science to instantly excel at golf, spiders creating amazing webs, a government agency bursting in to round up children, and a stuffed bunny that will “die” if not sent back to the future quickly. THE LAST MIMZY is a science fiction stew aimed at family audiences. It’s easier not to take little children to THE LAST MIMZY than it is to explain to them the dangers of mysticism and palm reading. Of course, the answers to the mysteries of the universe do not come from Tibet but from the Word of God: the Bible. To most people, palm reading and strange drawings from Tibet are mysterious, but Christians are strongly warned in the Bible against activities like palm reading. These appear to be just plot devices to heighten the sense of mystery. It is not as if the makers of THE LAST MIMZY are out to seduce schoolchildren into palm reading and mysticism. It's as if someone undercooked a soup with 50 different vegetables in it. Sadly, the movie also throws in palm reading and the “wisdom” of Tibet. THE LAST MIMZY is a science fiction stew including a workaholic dad, a boy who uses science to excel at golf, spiders creating amazing webs, a government agency rounding up the children, and a stuffed, artificially intelligent bunny that will 'die' if not sent back to the future quickly with a sample of a perfect genetic code.
