Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
mugchugdugwug How absurd, to comment on a 25 year old t.v. movie unavailable on tape or disc and likely to remain so. Has this ever appeared, anywhere, since its original broadcast? Oh well... I loved this when I was ten, for what that's worth. My enormous fondness for the late great Victor Buono is largely based on my dim memories of his performance here. While planning the theft of the great gold whatsit from the super-secure wherever, Buono flamboyantly demonstrates to this cohorts the power of misdirection, suggesting they use stage magic trickery to steal the doohickey. He is voted down, and instead we are treated to a suspenseful but stereotypical high-tech middle-of-the-night robbery attempt, the kind where they always use the aerosol spray to detect where the laser-beams are and if so much as a drop of sweat hits the floor the alarms will go off. Something goes wrong, they barely get away, and in the end they do it Victor's way, stealing the thingamabob in broad daylight in a crowded room, bringing joy to the heart of at least one chubby would-be magician.
