Pete, (Mike Myers, in his first dramatic role) is a streetwise ex-junkie running from the mob. After his two best friends die, he feels obligated to help raise their three kids who now live with their grandmother (Brenda Fricker). When a meteroite crashes into the kids' backyard they believe it was sent by their parents and go to dangerous lengths to recover it from wealthy scientist (Alfred Molina), who carted it away. Their lives converge in this funny, thrilling and bittersweet film which teaches us that sometimes the most precious things in life can be found in your own backyard.
