"Neutron!"

Ultra Sheen
Jimmy's new invention lets you actually be a player in your favourite video game! Sheen enters UltraLord Versus Robo-Fiend and is later joined by Jimmy. But when Carl enters in Llamapalooza, Jimmy's faced with the problem of getting them all back into the real world.

Normal Boy
Jimmy is tired of being a genius because all it does is get him into trouble. He makes a new invention the Brain Drain 8000 to make himself like a ordinary kid. Something goes wrong and he is turned into a "Drool Monkey". When a big meteor heads straight for Retroville who will save the day, now?

Sleepless in Retroville
Jimmy is hosting a sleepover with Carl and Sheen! To make it the best slumber party in history, Jimmy invents a machine to make perfect pillows for pillow fights, create made-to-order pizzas, and tell scream-your-head-off scary stories. But what happens when Carl overloads the invention and the programs mix up?

Crime Sheen Investigation
Sheen's oldest and most prized UltraLord is missing! It's up to Jimmy, playing a high-tech Sherlock Holmes, to find it.

Make Room for Daddy-O
The Father's Day talent show is only a few days away, and Jimmy has to perform with his Dad. Hugh can't wait for the big night. Jimmy, on the other hand, is afraid of being disgraced in front of the entire school. Sure he loves his dad, but why must Hugh be so dorky and un-cool?

Love Potion 9.368
Jimmy shows off his latest invention - a love pheromone - to Carl and Sheen. Anyone exposed to it will fall in love with the first person he or she sees. Jimmy thinks his potion is stored safely in the containment chamber, but Carl accidentally opens it - and love is literally in the air, exposing them all! And Cindy Vortex is the first girl Jimmy sees! Will Jimmy be able to reverse the effects of his latest invention, or will love conquer all?

Sorry, Wrong Era
Jimmy invents the Quantum Replay 9000 that enables him to go back in time. When Hugh gets a hold of it, he accidentally sends Jimmy, Carl and Sheen back 200 million years. Now Jimmy has to figure out how to get back home while staving off a rampaging T-Rex.

After success on the large screen, the cleverest boy in the world heads to TV and he brings his genius for inventing with him.

When Nickelodeon greenlit John A. Davis's 'Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius' in 2001, they were originally going to make an extended pilot for a TV show, but after seeing what Davis and his creative team were doing the executives at Paramount made the project into a feature film and the rest is history. The film became a firm favourite with kids so a spin off onto TV was inevitable.

The good news is that the same fun and style of the feature film have been kept on the small screen. Because the original movie didn't really push the animation envelope but concentrated more on the script and the characters, the TV looks almost identical to the movie and with the ever-increasing advances in technology, it gets better as the series progresses. While the characters still look the same, the backgrounds and environments that they inhabit have had an upgrade, making the adventures of Jimmy, Sheen and Carl even more fun for friends.

As with the film, Jimmy Neutron is still a Boy Genius and the TV show sees him invent some new every single show. From a new video game to a time machine remote control, Jimmy's inventions always lead to the trio of Carl, Sheen and Jimmy himself getting into trouble or any of the residents of Retroville in grave danger. From fighting huge robots to escaping from a T-Rex, Jimmy, Carl, Sheen, Cindy and Jimmy's parents have some really fun adventures that fans of the film and the characters will really enjoy.

'Jimmy Neutron: Party at the Neutron's' is a fun addition to any fan's collection. With some really fun adventures for Jimmy, Cark and Sheen, Jimmy Neutron is just as good on the small screen as he was on the big one.

OVERALL

The exclusion of any bonus features can be forgiven because this is a release mainly at children. Some interactive games would have been a good addition however.
