The Powerpuff Girls Movie

Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, those round-noggin, bug-eyed moppets from the Cartoon Network, join Scooby-Doo and Arnold in this summer’s thickening migration from the TV to the big screen. The story tells how the girls were the product of a professor’s experiment gone bad that also mutated monkey lab assistant Jojo into the evil genius Mojo Jojo. Here the kids are Kindergartners with laser-beam eyes, superhuman strength and the ability to speak Chinese. They soon alienate themselves from every man, woman and child with their disaster-causing playfulness and unbridled powers. Mojo Jojo befriends the despondent youngsters under the pretense of helping them build a Help-the-Town-and-Make-It-a-Better-Place Machine. Of course, the scheming simian has something much more devious than a possible humanitarian award on his agenda.
