DVD Reviews of Son of Flubber
DVD Review: "Ya might call it Dry Rain."
Summary: 4 Stars
Quick, what is the only Disney movie in which you will hear the phrase "bolluxed up?" haw haw Never saw that one coming.
Flubber becomes a victim of "national security" and our hero Ned Brainerd (MacMurray) returns home empty handed from our nation's capital to find creditors threatening to cancel his newspaper subscription, predators threatening to bulldoze Medfield College, the IRS threatening to ruin his life, and his wife (Nancy Olsen) looking like a million bucks in her new mink coat while holding a check for same for something poor Ned doesnt own anymore and cant sell so that we can all enjoy the wonders of Flubberoleum and can safely drop our children on the floor without the fear of being locked up by Social Services. A very frustrating start to the terrific sequel to Absent Minded Professor, all adding to the frenection of MacMurray, who must now invent something entirely new so that he can save Medfield, his home, and his marriage from the slimey advances of Prof. Shelby Ashton (Elliot Reid) and the return of luscious old flame Desiree de la Roche (Joanna Moore).
All the usual suspects are here from Disney's vast arsenal of character actors to keep us entertained while Ned goes about inventing a weathermaking glassbreaking foodgrowing machine. The Halloween chase scene with Prof. Brainerd terrorizing Shelby Ashton from above with his new rainmaking device is one of the funniest in Disney history. And of course we're treated to another Medfield sports showdown vs. national champs Rutland in a gridiron matchup where Flubber becomes the great equalizer. ROTFL!
However, Disney gets no props for this DVD release. The retail case proudly proclaims on the cover "The Original Black & White Classic." Well, except for one thing...the original theatrical release was in 1.75 widescreen, not pan and scan like this version. Why would Disney do this you ask? That's a good question. When you have the answer to that mystery, maybe you can explain to me why they likewise released Absent Minded Professor in a "colorized full screen" edition 9 months before they released the original widescreen B&W print on DVD. However, they did a superb job remastering this print cause the video is top notch, and you won't mind the Dolby mono, but there are sadly no extras on this disc to speak of unless you're the type that gets excited about a photo gallery and ads for other Disney films. A Five Star film loses a point for bad execution by idiot Disney execs. 4 Turnips
