Description
Rob Reiner had a pet project that he waited almost a decade to have enough pull in Hollywood that he could get this made. He wanted to adapt his friend Alan Zwiebel's novel North, about an exceptional kid in search of new parents, into a major motion picture. In spite of its pretty stellar cast including Elijah Wood, Jon Lovitz and Bruce Willis, the movie flopped hard. Will Mike agree with both Siskel and Ebert that North is the worst movie of 1994, or will he side with Allyson and feel that North is a pretty charming and magical kid movie that the critics got wrong?
