Blast from the Past Reviews
Blast of Fun
This movie is a "fun" flick. It makes you feel good about yourself, even when you stick out like a sore thumb. The script shows off Brendon Frasier's swing dancing talent, making the movie even more fun.
Well worth the purchase. The cheapest place to find it is right here..Don't wait for the Sunday sales!
Fun for most of the family
(3.5/5 stars) Aside from the stray profanity, this is a decent family movie. Brendan Fraser is charming as a young man who has spent almost his entire youth underground because his overly cautious father was a little too anxious to try out his self-built bomb shelter. Adam Webber (Fraser) learned almost everything he knows from his parents, played with goofy provinciality by Christopher Walken and Sissy Spacek. When it comes time for Adam to purchase supplies in order to restock the shelter and/or get married (dancing with mom just wasn't cutting it any more), he heads up to modern-day Los Angeles. As luck would have it, the first girl he meets, Eve, happens to fit all his qualifications for a mate, and she happens to be looking for an earnest doofus, which Adam fits to a T. So, Adam and Eve plan to populate this post-apocalyptic world with little Cains and Ables, apparently. Eve is played by the luminous, ever delectable Alicia Silverstone, and I can honestly say this is one of her better films. She has deserved so much better than she has had. This romantic comedy is unrealistic, but it is both entertaining as well as insightful. This is one of those movies that more successfully examines the concept of time displacement than science fiction films do. What happens when someone from the early 1960s is transported thirty years into the future? In retrospect, how much has changed in the past thirty years? For all our commonalities, how much has the human race changed during this period (for better or for worse)? Manners and the mentality of the Cold War are but two aspects of life this film observes. Pretty decent.
