Stunning in its dullness considering the talents behind it. Joel Schumacher directed this empty headed and far too late goof on 50s sci-fi films. Lily Tomlin, very funny in the film's first half, is left out to dry in the film's second half. Once she's shrunk, the film itself folds in on itself...it's lifeless, tiresome and very badly photographed (everything has a haze around it). Tomlin is not well served by Charles Grodin as her husband...he's wasted. Henry Gibson plays a scientist, but there's nothing remotely funny about him or his character...it's a real waste. A real misfire written by Tomlin collaborator Jane Wagner (who clearly improved her talents with THE SEARCH FOR SIGNS OF INTELLIGENT LIFE...)
