Poor 10-year-old Lucas Nickle (Zach Tyler Eisen) can't get a
break.
Recently moved to a new city with his family, he hasn't made a
single friend. He gets nothing but grief from his teenage sister,
Tiffany (Allison Mack), and not a whole lot of attention lately
from his parents (Cheri Oteri and Larry Miller), who are busy
planning their big anniversary weekend trip to Puerto Vallarta.
Meanwhile, his loving but kinda kooky grandmother Mommo (Lily
Tomlin) spends all her time trying to protect the family from those
space aliens she's been reading about in the grocery store
magazines.
To make matters worse, Lucas has become the number one target of
neighborhood bully Steve, who never misses an opportunity to push
him around.
In turn, Lucas delights in destroying ant hills in his yard—venting
his frustration on the defenseless mounds of dirt and their tiny
inhabitants by kicking them, stomping them and squirting them with
the garden hose.
But, unbeknownst to Lucas, there is a whole world alive and busy
just underneath his feet, and what he sees as "just a bunch of
stupid ants" are actually members of a complex society, with names
and relationships, responsibilities and emotions. They're getting
mighty tired of having their homes trampled by Lucas The Destroyer.
And they are ready to fight back.
