While perhaps not containing the grace, charm and amazement of the cartoons described below in the Inkwell series, Disney’s Kim Possible: A Sitch In Time is pretty good fun for the “tween” set. DVD Toons has the first review online, pointing out about the time-hopping plot that “there’s plenty of fun to be had with the characters’ past and future selves, especially with the future-Rufus, voiced by Star Trek: The Next Generation’s Michael Dorn, with some hilarious lines delivered in that unmistakably gruff voice. The film makes good use of its limited animation budget, and is actually pretty fluid, backed up by the always moving camera and direction that cuts the action on at breakneck pace. Though [it doesn’t] really lift past strict DTV fodder, the buoyant nature of the film will keep audiences entertained”. However, the disc’s bonus features don’t rate so highly: “At the end of the day, one certainly wouldn’t be picking A Sitch In Time up for the extras. The trumped up ‘Totally Awesome Tempus Simius Simulation Activity’ is, in fact, neither ‘awesome’, nor really an activity, and this is almost just a barebones disc of a very short, albeit fun, movie”.
