Synopsis

Humour and high adventure combine in the biggest action debut in years - even if its characters are very small. Infinity Drake (Finn) is with his scientist uncle when they are summoned to a crisis meeting. A power-mad villain has released a lethal bio-weapon - mutant wasps with a deadly sting. Millions of lives are in danger, but Uncle Al has a crazy plan that just might work...Soon he's shrinking a crack military team to take down the wasps. But a double agent throws the mission and now Finn is 9mm tall and has the weight of the world's survival on his tiny shoulders. Killer wasps: It's time to pick on someone your own size!
