Plot

An eccentric man-child goes on a cross-country trip to recover his stolen bicycle.

Sinekatalog’s take

Tim Burton's first feature is a candy-coloured, joyfully weird comedy built around Pee-wee Herman. Inventive and sweet, it has a zany visual imagination and a famous dance on the bowling alley bar.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
