Clint E @RT58698373 6d This is a really cute movie due to its quirky premise and especially its stellar cast. If you're looking for huge belly laughs or important cinema, keep looking. Otherwise, come along for the ride. This movie doesn't take itself seriously for a moment, equally poking fun at 1962-era morals and politics AND 1999 craziness. Brendan Fraser is absolutely perfect in his role as Adam, and Alicia Silverstone (whatever happened to?) is equally sweet and completely relatable as Eve. Throw in an over-the-top Christoper Walken, and you've got a zany, loveable fish-out-of-water tale. It's more "Brady Bunch movie" than "Back to the Future," but combining paranoia with innocence and today's anything-goes amorality, and you've got a recipe for success.

For sure not as good as its predecessor Back to the Future, but Walken, Frazier and even Dave Foley are hilarious to watch, and there are some great zingers in there. Yeah, it is super contrived to set up the humor (the cult, time very long timeline, etc), but most of it lands pretty well. Silverstone was decent, but feels slightly off... the weird way she scrunches her face makes me think of Nelly from Little House on the Prairie.

The concept and story are cleaver, the cast is great, the acting is wonderful and truly believable (even from bit players); it's funny and sincere - overall it is positively charming. The worst thing of the entire movie was the sound track, it was only mediocre. This is a re-watchable family favorite.

Great cast, acting and story absolutely charming See more Jerod S @jeroduptown Jan 30 Big points for a fresh idea and cast - but the uneven laughs mixed with a botched ending squandered all that was saved down in that bunker.
