PEE-WEE’S BIG HOLIDAY (Video Release USA 2015)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.6|5.0 Starsììì

Pee-wee’s Big Holiday movie does not match the quality of the 1985 Pee-wee’s Big Adventure film mostly due to the lower key of acting that Paul Reubens (Pee-wee) delivers in this movie than he did in the previous film. The addition of Joe Maganiello seems an odd casting choice that does not fit the story well. The movie, however, does carry itself and serves as a good watch for the Pee-wee fan.

Storyline

Pee-wee, who has never left his small town, decides to travel to New York City to attend a friend’s birthday party.
