Aw, shucks! Was there ever a cuter, more adorable Tom Sawyer than Jonathan Taylor Thomas's glossy portrayal in the latest Disney movie, "Tom and Huck"? With his post-Beatles haircut and proto-grunge duds, Mr. Thomas's Tom is the very model of an MTV-wise youngster transported back to Hannibal, Mo., in the 1840's. Mr. Thomas doesn't simply mug, roll his eyes and strike magazine-ready poses with the bravado of a child star who has studied his best camera angles. He flirts shamelessly with the camera and with everyone in sight, lowering his gaze, casting sidelong glances and flashing coy, enigmatic smiles. When he gives his sweetheart, spunky Becky Thatcher (Rachael Leigh Cook), her first kiss, the camera muscles in for a close-up. A moment later, when he tells her she is "not the first" girl he has had a crush on, she smacks him. He responds with the sly, sheepish what-did-I-do expression of a baby Clark Gable. In the story, loosely adapted from Mark Twain's novel, Tom and Huck witness a midnight murder in a graveyard and swear an oath of secrecy. After the wrong man is accused and sent to trial, Tom breaks their vow and names the real culprit, Injun Joe (Eric Schweig), a knife-wielding varmint who flees the courtroom vowing revenge. Tom, Huck, Becky and Injun Joe end up chasing one another in an echoing cave with a pit so deep it seems to extend into the center of the earth. Guess who ends up taking a dive. And guess who ends up with the buried treasure that started all the fuss. -nytimes.com
