“Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made” follows the hilarious exploits of quirky, deadpan hero, Timmy Failure, who, along with his 1,500-pound polar bear partner Total, operates Total Failure Inc., a Portland detective agency. An elementary school oddball, the clueless but confident Timmy (Winslow Fegley) must navigate the world of adults around him — which includes his overburdened mother (Ophelia Lovibond), her well-meaning boyfriend (Kyle Bornheimer), Timmy's teacher/nemesis (Wallace Shawn) and a school-mandated guidance counselor (Craig Robinson) — all in his quest to become the best detective in the world. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Tom McCarthy, “Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made” was written by McCarthy & Stephan Pastis based on the best-selling book by Pastis.

An odd, but enjoyable flick... This film is what happens when ridiculous and amazing collide.

It has a wildly, indescribably unlikable protagonist.

For a seemingly innocuous project, there's substance here for adults to unpack with younger viewers, which is a boon.

Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made is a perfectly childish film, with the direction, script and cast combining to bring an imaginative sense of wonder.

It's corny, it's cheesy but charming and funny. It's kind of like the Disney of old... It really does kind of remind me of the films that I grew up with as a kid, and I think I would've loved this had it come out like 20 years ago.
