So my friend let me borrow her tape of
Honey I Shrunk the Kids. This
film was directed by Joe Johnston and it stars Rick Moranis. The film is about
a dad who is so concerned with his inventions and he has very little time to
spend with his children. He has been working on a elector-magnet shrinking
machine which his kids get their hands on. The outcome means that these kids
get shrunken down to a 1/4 of their size. What's really sad is there own dad
throws them out in the trash and they are in charge of surviving in a world of
really large things. Killer Bees attack, a lawn mower almost runs them over,
ants are ginormous, and lets not forget that giant bowl of cereal that the son
almost drowns in. All i can remember is when i was kid going to Disney and
riding the simulater/3D thing. It scared the crap out of me when that snake
comes out of the screen and the rats crawl around your feet. I hate that ride!
Anyway, I liked this comedy and it brought me back to when I watched this film
as a kid. The sequel is not as good as the first as it usually goes with
films. The Dad finally realizes that he shrunk his kids and he goes on a
mission to find them. It's a fun film to watch especially when your stressed
because it is really cheesy and the special effects are very obvious. I must
say that I love the dog in the film, he is by far the best! Too cute. I
recommend this film if you are bored and have nothing better to do. I don't
think I will be watching this film again for a while.
