Blast from the Past: Edited

Meet Adam Webber, born and raised in a bomb shelter with his mad scientist father and his sherry-swilling mother. Adam's simple childhood has been filled with Perry Como records, "The Honeymooners" re-runs and good old-fashioned family values. Now, 35 years later, Adam is about to emerge into a bewildering modern world in search of supplies and a simple, non-mutant girl from Pasadena. Instead, Adam meet Eve, a modern LA woman, jaded about life and burned by love. The result is an "engaging romantic comedy that's charming, funny and hip!"

Dove Review

The language has been softened for this edited video release. There is still some content which parents will want to be aware of and this is all listed below. The story does portray the life of thirty-five-year-old Adam (Brendan Fraser), who prays at meals and is kind to his parents and to women; he is also very polite. He is an innocent thirty-five-year-old due to being raised in a fallout shelter.

Interestingly enough, a jaded woman named Eve (Alicia Silverstone) meets Adam, and though at first she thinks he is a nut case, his innocence and kindness begin to warm her heart. We award our Dove Seal to this film for ages twelve and above and we suggest parents consult the content listing below.
