Phil Boatwright's Bio

Title: FLUBBER
Stars: Robin Williams
Distributor: Disney
Category: Family Comedy
Rating: PG
Content: (1 crude sight gag; a couple scenes may frighten very little ones due to a fast paced out of control rubber substance flying through neighborhood homes, and a bowling ball falling on the comic villain’s head; the professor puts the flubber on the shoes of the losing basketball team - excuse me, but isn’t that cheating? - Oh well, so long as you get a laugh, right? Disney does the same in several underdog movies such as "Angeles In The Outfield", there we see Angeles helping an incompetent team beat real athletes. Yes, it’s only a movie, but there’s enough people in this world - including many high paid athletes - teaching kids that sportsmanship really means win at all costs. Shouldn’t movie makers be responsible for the lessons they teach little ones? Excuse me, what was I thinking?)
Review: Remake of a Disney classic about an absent minded professor discovering a new energy source. After a slow start, Mr. Williams version kicks in. Lots of laughs for young and old.
