Leave It to Beaver is a 1997 American comedy film directed by Andy Cadiff, based on the 1957–1963 television series of the same name.

Beaver has his heart set on a bike in a store window but does not think Ward and June will buy it for him.

Eddie does not want Beaver to follow them, so Wally leaves him alone at the bike rack, telling him he will be back for him.

After the grounding, Beaver has his first football game, but it ends poorly when he is tricked into passing the ball to a kid on the opposing team, whom he remembered as a friend from summer camp.

The boy, who is Kyle's younger brother, challenges him, as a way of getting it back, to climb up to a gigantic coffee mug atop the local cafe, which he falls into and can't get out of.

At home, Ward sees him polishing it, tells him that it would be safer if it stays in the house, and, at his request, reads him a bedtime story.

The site's consensus states: "Declining to update the television series' sensibility for modern audiences while lacking in its requisite charm, Leave it to Beaver should have just left these characters in the past.

"[6] Roger Ebert gave it 3 out of 4 stars writing, "I was surprised to find myself seduced by the film's simple, sweet story, and amused by the sly indications that the Cleavers don't live in the 1950s anymore.

It was re-released on DVD on March 20, 2007, as part of a 'Family Favorites 4-Movie Collection' (with The Little Rascals, Casper, and Flipper).
