Featured review
Yeah...don't bother.
I saw that this film had such an unbelievably low rating on IMDb, so I had to see for myself what was so bad about this film. I figured it couldn't possibly be that bad. Well...I think I spoke too soon, cause it was REALLY BAD!
The story is really bizarre. No, make that freaking stupid!!! I can't imagine that child would get enjoyment out of this movie. I'm sure that kids would laugh at a little bit of the stupid humor, but not a whole lot.
I find it physically painful that Christopher Lloyd agreed to do this movie. Why Chris, Why? I was also a little surprised to see Kim Cattrall in the film too, I think she can do much better than this. I do like Peter MacNicol (TV's "Ally McBeal"), and he did a pretty good job with his role. Kyle Howard's character was quite bizarre, if you've seen the film, I think you'll know what I'm talking about. But...he did a pretty good job with his role. Dom DeLuise was another good addition, but not enough to make this film worth watching. I did like seeing Jim Hanks in the film, brother to a certain other famous Hanks (Tom Hanks if you can't figure it out), although he has a very small role in the film. It's amazing how much Jim looks like Tom.
One other thing I have to vent out that really angered me. The cover to this movie shows the little kid with glasses on. I don't think he EVER had glasses on in the entire film!!! Perhaps I missed it, but I sure didn't notice them. Strange huh?
All in all, I would definitely recommend staying clear of this film, unless you're curious like I was. If you do end up seeing this film, I hope you enjoy it more than I did. Thanks for reading,
