So, 'Hi, Junior!' is this quirky little film from '71 that blends comedy, family vibes, and a sprinkle of fantasy. The plot revolves around Junior, this lovable kid who feels kinda neglected, and he sets off on this wild adventure with a group of dwarves to literally find Time. It’s got this offbeat charm, with practical effects that, while not super polished, add to its unique atmosphere. The pacing is a bit loose, but it fits the whimsical tone, making it feel like a fun Saturday morning watch. The performances are earnest, and there's something endearing about how it tackles themes of attention and friendship in its own bizarre way.
This film has a bit of a niche following, partly due to its rarity. Released on limited formats, it’s not often found in the wild, which definitely adds to the collector's allure. The home video releases are sparse, making it a sought-after piece for those looking to complete their 70s family film collections. You'll rarely come across it, but when you do, it’s a nice conversation starter among enthusiasts of offbeat cinema.
