Plots(1)
A little guy with a big heart (not to mention whiskers, a little pink nose and a really dapper wardrobe), Stuart searches for a sense of belonging and a place to call home in a decidedly supersized world. When he's adopted by the Littles, a human family, he embarks on adventures with a variety of characters--including his nemesis, family cat Snowbell--and learns the family, loyalty and friendship. The Littles, in the meantime, discover there is a little "Stuart" in all of us--the spunk, spirit and courage to be true to ourselves and follow our dreams despite the odds. (official distributor synopsis)

Such a blatantly beautiful family film that has interesting actors at its disposal, but mainly a very good special effects aspect for its time. Even in 1999, Stuart looks like he's actually real, although it's true that he's just too cute. Shyamalan wrote a screenplay that didn't want to offend anyone, there are strong emotional scenes here, and as a family film, it still works. Nevertheless, I still love cats.
