Nickelodeon's 'Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius' (2001) review

Updated: Oct 28, 2021

In a special bonus episode of the Jack Vita Show, Barry Dunn visits the show to discuss one of his favorite childhood movies, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius with Jack!

Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius was a box office hit in the winter of 2001, spawning a Nickelodeon series called, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius. Jack and Barry dive deep into the film that started it all, putting each of the film's important characters, themes and moments under the microscope. Jack is a HUGE Hugh Neutron fan and thinks he is one of the greatest Nickelodeon characters of all-time. Find out why! They also share their thoughts on alien abduction and the lawless society that Retroville becomes without adults. It's a (brain)blast of nostalgia you won't want to miss!
