morgan brinway is a snooty principal whose biggest problem is five feisty kids nicknamed the " stinkers . " when the stinkers find a sea lion slappy , they install him in brinway ' s hot tub . the stinkers attempt to rescue slappy , as groundskeeper roy and animal thief boccoli have their own plans for him .

not to judge a book by its cover , but when you write a column about bad movies and you stumble across something called slappy and the stinkers , you tend to feel like half the work has been done for you . slappy and the stinkers sounds like its own review . " is this movie any good ? well , i ' ll tell you this : it ' s called slappy and the stinkers . the end . "

it was a cute story but i felt bad for the principle always in the line of the stinkers trouble .

watching slappy for less than a minute and hearing him break wind is all the motivation the stinkers need to arrive at the decision that they must get slappy out of the aquarium and back into the ocean , where he will surely be happier and less gassy . a sequence of events too nonsensical to be described in human language leads to the stinkers getting slappy out of the facility and on to the school bus . their plan is to sneak him back to dartmoor , and then to figure out how to get him to the ocean . they contemplate this from the parking lot of the aquarium , from which the ocean is clearly visible and cannot be more than 100 yards away .

in the otherwise unremarkable comedy ' ' slappy and the stinkers , ' ' which stretches the youthful mischief of the old ' ' our gang ' ' - ' ' little rascals ' ' shorts on the rack of feature length , one of the characters has the good grace to attribute some of the film ' s sources .

' ' slappy and the stinkers ' ' is rated pg ( parental guidance suggested ) . ignoring the fact that its premise involves theft and a wide spectrum of other crimes , the film includes ungenteel language that should come as no surprise to most small children .

not all the derivative elements of ' ' slappy and the stinkers ' ' - - the ' ' home alone ' ' assaults on boccoli , for example - - are acknowledged ; but like so many innovations , the film footnote arrives with potential for improvement .

like many of their dolphin friends , several of the sea lions are movie stars . torey was thrust into the spotlight after playing the title role in the movie andre and pj also had parts in the movie . both starred alongside another one of our sea lions , murray in the movie slappy and the stinkers , and were also featured in an ad for reynolds wrap .

on a dark winter ' s day , other 7 - year - olds whose film memory bank remains similarly and understandably undernourished may find ' ' slappy and the stinkers ' ' a welcome alternative to an afternoon of snow - filled galoshes .

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 .

five best friends - - enthusiastic nonconformists all - - meet slappy , the sea lion , on a field trip . the " stinkers , " as they are called by the private school ' s disaster - prone headmaster ( b . d . wong ) think that slappy is unhappy in his small aquarium habitat . remembering free willy , the five troublemakers determine that they , too , can make a heroic rescue and return slappy to the ocean . unbeknownst to them , however , an evil sea - lion - napper has other plans for the affable mammal . he , too , intends to steal slappy , train him to do tricks , and then sell him to a circus . the rescuers confront the ' napper and the chase is on .

learning that it stars bronson pinchot , a bunch of annoying kids , and a farting sea lion is almost redundant . of course a movie called slappy and the stinkers stars bronson pinchot , a bunch of annoying kids , and a farting sea lion . what else could it be ?

it is decided that slappy will spend the night with witz ( carl michael lindner ) , the asthmatic nerd and neurotic worry - wart of the group . the rest of the stinkers tuck slappy into bed with witz and then one of them says , " try not to wheeze ! to a sea lion , a wheeze might sound like a mating call ! " this only makes witz more nervous , which makes him wheeze , which makes slappy kiss him on the forehead , which makes everyone laugh because now witz might get molested by a sea lion , lol .

the next day they load slappy into an old free - standing bathtub they have lying around , put it on a wagon , and use their bicycles to haul it to the beach . ( to their credit , they do not go to the same beach that they walked past when they left the aquarium . ) but slappy looks out into the ocean , sees stock footage of a killer whale , and refuses to enter the water because killer whales eat sea lions . " no , it ' s ok ! " the stinkers tell him . " it ' s just stock footage ! it ' s from another movie ! " but slappy won ' t listen , on account of not having ears . now the stinkers ' plan is to take slappy back to the aquarium they stole him from in the first place , making this the most confused conservation message i ' ve ever seen in a movie .

the stinkers have allies in roy ( bronson pinchot ) , the academy ' s destructive groundskeeper , and harriet ( jennifer coolidge ) , a teacher who brings a straight - faced slavic - scented lunacy to the proceedings .

maybe i ' m just a softy but i thought this was a wonderful ( and believable ! ) family film . the expressions on the children ' s faces when they first see slappy was priceless - - and the final scene was nothing but laughs . i ' m a literature college professor so i ' ve read and seen my share of " stinkers " . this one smells good !

nicknamed the " stinkers " by the snooty headmaster ( wong ) of the private school where they are on summer enrichment scholarships , five feisty kids wreak havoc and humor with their irrepressible sense of adventure and ingenuity . they band together to build a flying machine powered by a leaf blower , escape from the comic villain in their homemade hotrod - bathtub - bikeplane , and even pull off the daring " rescue " of a contented sea lion in a misguided effort to free slappy !

in any event , the stinkers have little patience for the classroom and devote themselves to mischief that usually results in disaster for mr . brimway , his clothing or his beloved cherry - colored jaguar xjs convertible .

the plot revolves around the efforts of five foolish but imaginative children to steal a flatulent sea lion named slappy from the local aquarium and return it to the ocean . before anyone can say , ' ' hey , you ' re lifting the plot of ' free willy , ' ' ' the children acknowledge that if the idea was good enough for the whale , it is good enough for the sea lion .

they get slappy back to dartmoor and hide him for the afternoon in mr . brinway ' s hot tub . wouldn ' t a hot tub actually be a terrible place for a sea lion ? don ' t worry , the film clears up that plot hole by having the stinkers mix in a lot of ice and salt , thereby recreating slappy ' s natural habitat . but how will they feed him ? don ' t worry , the film addresses that plot hole , too , by having the stinkers order $ 150 worth of fish from a local fish - and - chips franchise and telling the delivery guy to just charge it to brinway . you know how take - out restaurants will deliver food to your house and you can just say , " oh , charge this to so - and - so ? " it ' s like that .

in the long historical march of motion pictures , studded with images and effects that dazzle the eye , assault the ear and boggle the mind , now comes film with footnotes .

meanwhile , a villain named boccoli ( sam mcmurray ) has been trying to steal slappy himself so that he can sell him to a circus on the black market . this was before craigslist , when the only way circuses could get animals was from the back of a guy ' s van . but never fear , the kids pull a lot of painful pranks on boccoli , home alone - style , and rescue slappy and get him back to the aquarium , where he ' ll live happily and fartily ever after .

after an applause greeting by mangers and staff and being told that they were the first official guests , the portugues party were given an informative and educational lecture regarding sea lions and were then led to the sea lion habitat .

it ' s during this field trip that the stinkers encounter slappy the sea lion . within seconds of being introduced as a character , slappy farts loudly , as if the movie was worried that his being a sea lion wouldn ' t be enough of a novelty to hold our interest . " sure , he ' s an aquatic mammal who does tricks , " said a producer . " but today ' s kids have already seen that ! i ' ll be damned if they ' ve seen a farting seal , though ! ! " slappy farts three more times in the movie , and also has a scene where he gorges on chocolate - flavored laxative and then sits on a toilet . kind of a waste that the movie paid for a whole sea lion when all it needed was the anus .

the stinkers had no adults that could be counted upon to help them . does that feel like a real situation ? if you need help , who can you count on ?

slappy and the stinkers is the kind of generic - brand , pseudo - disney children ' s comedy that you ' ll see playing on the vcr in a pediatrician ' s waiting room , and which will one day be logged into evidence after a receptionist loses her mind from watching it all day and murders someone . it was conjured into existence , perhaps using dark magicks , after the success of free willy made marine animals all the rage in hollywood . sats doesn ' t even bother to hide its inspiration . when the kids decide to help a sea lion escape from an aquarium , one of them says , " like free willy ! it ' s free slappy ! " i ' m surprised that wasn ' t the movie ' s advertising tagline . " it ' s like free willy , but with a seal ! "

witz ? two pieces of advice : don ' t insult him [ slappy ] . and try not to wheeze . because , to a sea lion , a wheeze can sound like a mating call .

coolidge had a regular role in the nbc sitcom joey as joey ' s agent , appearing in 37 of 46 episodes in the series . she originally starred in an episode of friends in its final season as amanda , a tactless and uninhibited wannabe whom phoebe and monica try to shake off . prior to her friends appearance , she was a regular on she tv , a very short - lived sketch comedy that also featured nick bakay , elon gold , simbi khali , and linda kash . she also has appeared on according to jim , playing jim ' s sister and in an episode of sex and the city , and on frasier as frederica , martin crane ' s new physical therapist . coolidge also appeared in the kiddie comedy slappy and the stinkers and as adam sandler ' s wife ' s friend , janine , in the 2006 comedy film click .

brinway is assisted by a woman named harriet , played by jennifer coolidge doing an annoying scandinavian comedy accent . when something goes wrong and brinway starts mincing and flouncing and blustering like a fey yosemite sam - - in other words , about every eleven seconds - - harriet is usually there to calm him down with her annoying scandinavian comedy accent . jennifer coolidge and b . d . wong are both skilled actors who have been delightful to watch in other productions , and if you asked either of them about slappy and the stinkers i bet they would pretend not to know what you were talking about .

and when they run afoul of boccoli ( sam mcmurray ) , a villain bent on stealing poor slappy for himself and then teaching the creature a few stereotypical tricks before peddling it to a bulgarian circus , boccoli ' s ability to bounce back from all manner of mayhem reminds the children of ' ' terminator .

the kids figure brinway never comes home early and never uses his hot tub anyway , whereupon brinway decides to do both . ( he makes the decision immediately , lest we forget the comedy set - up that has been put into place . ) so then there are shenanigans and hijinks related to getting slappy out of the hot tub before brinway sees him , and to brinway wearing an american flag speedo , and to whatever other assorted humiliations the movie can conceive to inflict upon brinway in this short space of time , lest we forget that without farting sea lions and abused authority figures , the movie would just be 15 minutes of over - acting children shouting dumb dialogue .

victor portugues also enjoyed the sea lion encounter . “we have been coming to the bahamas since 1996 and have been to dolphin encounters on blue lagoon island before and really enjoyed the dolphin programs and had booked dolphin swims for this trip . then we learned about the sea lion encounter and wanted to try something new and i am really glad we did . it was really different and a great deal of fun – each one of us enjoyed it immensely . ”

the facility has also made the lifetime dream of many children come true by participating in the make - a - wish foundation program .

the stinkers of the title are a group of five kids , all about 8 years old , who are attending a summer program at the prestigious dartmoor academy , a snooty private school run by fussy headmaster morgan brinway ( b . d . wong ) . the group consists of a tough - talking leader , a good kid , an asthmatic nerd , a girl , and a black boy , which means they meet the federal requirements to be registered as a little rascals knock - off and are therefore eligible for grant money . brinway calls them the stinkers because they are always getting into trouble - - nothing serious , just whimsical mischief along the lines of attaching a leaf - blower and some wings to a desk chair to see if they can make it fly . ( they cannot . ) they also like to sneak out of the opera appreciation class that brinway teaches , though that can hardly be described as " stinky " behavior when it is the only natural response to such a class .

“it is with great pleasure that we welcomed the portugues family and their friend as the first guests of our exciting new sea lion program , ” said robert meister , managing director of dolphin encounters ltd . “one of the few programs of its kind in the world , the sea lion encounter is truly unique as it allows guests to interact with these extraordinarily playful animals face - to - face in a fun and educational experience . the portugues family is the first to participate in our sea lion encounter and we wanted to mark the occasion with a celebration . ”

all the grownups are one - dimensional and portrayed as bumbling , self - absorbed , or clueless . the kids are a stereotypically diverse mix of " fiesty girl , " " the leader , " " witty african - american , " " asthmatic , but cute scared kid , " and " problem - solver . " the kids do work together with integrity to save an animal , defeat school bullies and an evil sea - lion - napper , and wreak havoc on the dim - witted school principal .

the sea lion encounter program , the first of its kind in the bahamas , is based on dolphin encounters’ highly successful and award - winning dolphin interactive programs and allows guests to meet california sea lions up - close in their pristine all - natural marine mammal habitat which allows even more things to do on paradise island in the bahamas .

this is silly , mindless , often crude fun for those who like their humor on the broad side . it ' s got clueless adults who fall and get banged up a lot , ridiculous pie - in - the - face villains , and oh - so - cutesy kids who grin a lot and utter sassy wisecracks on cue .

the other employee at dartmoor is roy , the groundskeeper and bus driver and all - around handyman played by bronson pinchot . roy is clearly meant to be a stoner , but he has to be the pg - rated , kid - friendly kind of stoner who just comes across as incredibly stupid , like shaggy in scooby - doo or tara reid in real life . during a field trip to the local aquarium , roy hears the word " octopus " and says , " octopus ? here , puss , puss , puss ! , " because he thinks it ' s a kind of cat . then the octopus in question reaches out of the water and grabs roy ' s hair with its tentacles , for comedy . it is that kind of movie .

amelia lives only with her son samuel , who ' s still afraid of monsters under the bed or in the closet . . .

clownish action from beginning to end . there are only two brief and perhaps disturbing scenes in which the villain tries to train a kidnapped sea lion by chaining him and using an electric prod . otherwise there are no serious injuries and there is no actual suspense , just lots of slapstick action .

“the animals very quickly became adapted to their home here at dolphin encounters and enjoy learning new behaviours , ” said ms . terrell . “our new program is a wonderful experience for the animals as well as visitors . it is a new opportunity to interact with another marine mammal species and provides extraordinary educational opportunities for the thousands of students that visit our facility . ”

potty humor throughout includes : farting , mention of peeing and wetting pants , smelly poop references ; characters get hit in the crotch numerous times ; the seal lion accidentally eats an entire package of laxative after which the creature is seen on the toilet . infrequent coarse language including " hell , " " pissant , " " farthead , " " crap .

the six sea lions , pj , kalika , xena , maggie , torey , all female , and murray a male , came to dolphin encounters over a year ago after surviving hurricane katrina and the destruction of their former home at marine life oceanarium in gulfport , mississippi . having all been born under human care , their habitat at blue lagoon island was first time the animals had ever been in a natural ocean environment .

a former soldier is taken captive and awakens in the back of a van where he learns that he only has a few moments to figure out how he got there .

( note : bronson pinchot ' s character serves no function in the story . it is possible that he was included only because pinchot was under contract and had to rack up another 10 minutes of screen time before the studio would let him go . )

combined with an abundance of fart and poop jokes , it ' s juvenile humor at best - - a time - waster with a few good laughs and an engaging sea lion .
