Five 2nd-grade kids who don't follow strict rules by their school principal Brinway are dubbed "Stinkers" by him. On the class visit to an aquarium the Stinkers decide that a sea lion called Slappy doesn't feel too good there, "free" him, and plant him into Brinway's hot-tub.

This is by far the worst movie I have ever seen, and I enjoy watching bad movies. There wasn't one scene were I can walk away saying: 'Well, that wasn't too bad.', because I can't lie in this review. First off, the child actors are by far the worst possible, the casting crew was either drunk or mentally handicapped. They probably cast them if they looked the part. Secondly, there are enough clichés found in this 'movie' to make a grown man sick. There is really nothing else I can say about this movie. You really have to see it for yourself.There is much entertainment found in this movie; but not in the way the makers intended.In summary; a steaming pile of feces'
This movie is the type of good clean adventure kids today need. Happy endings are rare these days and kids need to experience HAPPY !! A group of kids take on the responsibility of Slappy The Seal after being found mistreated. Again, I think children need to see more of this......the need for humans to have compassion and sympathy for others, and a desire to do the right thing. Soon Slappy becomes an integral part of their group and the movie depicts their adventures (imagine how hard it is to keep a seal from being discovered by your parents for example). Predictable, yes......a little thin plot-wise, yes, but sweet and lighthearted just the same.
Slappy and the Stinkers is one of my 10 favorite all-time movies. My grandchildren and I have watched it over and over. In these days of sex, violence and objectionable language, it is so refreshing to find a movie that one can feel comfortable sharing with others, especially children. Slappy is a delightful and funny seal, being hidden (and disguised) by a group of youngsters, trying to protect him from those who would do him harm. A strict and unfeeling school master, along with gardener (Branson Pinchot) add to the enjoyment. Watch as once again good triumphs over evil! Clean, wholesome and upbeat comedy, a good addition to one's video library.
This movie lacks one thing. Do you know what this is? Brains! In one scene a little boy is riding his bike up a hill, but the bike is carrying a bath tub and a seal in the bath tub! I don't think Hulk could do that! One word describes this story. Bad. A child could make up a better plot!
