I feel this was probably one of Johnathan Taylor Thomas' better movies. Although he may never be as good as he was when he played Randy on the tv show Home Improvement. This movie he played the part well, even though... Full review

Visually, Tom and Huck is eye-pleasing, and Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Brad Renfro make a good pair as Tom and Huck. Other cast members fit their parts. That the film did not strictly follow Mark Twain is no problem if... Full review

He has the right cockiness for Tom, who was always a bit too clever for his own good, and the intelligence to rise above, if not too far above, the intellectual sluggishness of his surroundings.
But the young actors aren't faultless, either.

At its best, "Tom and Huck" is exciting enough for TV-jaded youngsters and pleasant enough for grown-ups.
During a latenight visit to a graveyard, Tom and Huck inadvertently witness the murder of the local undertaker at the hands of the villainous Injun Joe (Eric Schweig).

Tom and Huck may be bad boys, but the smell of the classroom still clings to them.
Packed as it is with humor, romance and breathless action, the movie isn't really dull, it just feels that way.

Tom is known as a decent lad with a mischievous streak.
When the snoring miscreant stirs as Tom reaches for the map, we feel a delightful chill race up our spine.
Tom, with best buddy Huckleberry Finn (Brad Renfro) at his side, panics and flees.

Huck stubbornly points out that Tom can't break his oath of secrecy.
Tom is the mischievous but basically good boy being raised by his exasperated Aunt Polly (Amy Wright).
