4.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgia and humor... Didn't age especially gracefully, though., October 20, 2008

Bought it to relive a bit of my childhood. While it's still more-or-less funny, etc., it didn't age especially well. It very much "looks" like an 80's film (the hair, clothes and the special effects) and sounds like an 80's movie (dialogue, music, etc.).

But, it's still rather entertaining! Has a few special features decent picture quality, considering the source material. I think it's mainly good for the nostalgia value...

4.0 out of 5 stars a fond memory, July 3, 2008

By	Nina (Ponder) - See all my reviews

This movie is really a cute movie. My kids loved seeing it and I remembered how much fun it was to see it at the movies. It is not the best movie I ever saw but it is not the worst either.
