House Arrest is a quirky family comedy that dives into themes of childhood innocence and family dynamics, all wrapped in a light-hearted tone. The premise is pretty wild—Grover and his sister Stacy essentially imprison their parents to force them to reconcile, which leads to a mix of amusing and poignant moments. The pacing is brisk, keeping the viewer engaged with its blend of humor and family drama. The performances, especially by the kids, have a certain charm that feels genuine amidst the chaos. Practical effects are minimal, but the film leans heavily on its script and character development, which makes it distinct in the '90s family movie landscape. It’s not the most polished film, but that’s part of its charm.
