Discobloodbath3 Aiight guys this is my first review and I wanna keep it short. I just wanted to say that this movie is surprisingly good and actually pretty funny. This is coming from a 25 year old movie buff who normally only finds interest in super deep, complex, and thought provoking movies. This has taught me that movies don/t always have to be deep or complex to be good. There is so much wrong with this movie and most of it has no basis in reality and yet it is easy to overcome this obstacle and just enjoy it for what it is. There is some hilarious moments in this movie and Brendan definitely steals the show with a great performance. Pauley Shore was pretty funny as well as the typical 90's stoner with the surfer vibe. As for Sean I had no idea he had been anything but Sam from LOTR. I just wanna say I believe that most of the people who rated this poorly prolly have a very weak sense of humor and most likely embraced the whole "Just say No" Nancy Reagan campaign to shocking proportions. All in all, simple and funny, and successfully captures the 90's grunge and stoner era, as well as the life of high school kids and their obstacles. 8/10.

SnoopyStyle Dave Morgan (Sean Astin) decides to dig his own swimming pool for an end of high school party. Along with his wacky best friend Stoney Brown (Pauly Shore), they find a frozen caveman Link (Brendan Fraser). Dave is in love with his old friend Robyn Sweeney (Megan Ward). However she's now out of his league with douche bully boyfriend Matt Wilson (Michael DeLuise) and dismissive friend Ella (Robin Tunney). Link gets thawed out and tries to adjust to the modern world with the help of the boys. Link becomes the cool new guy in school with Dave and Stoney tagging along.It's sometimes fun. Pauly Shore is actually likable as the wacky sidekick. Sean Astin is a bit too hyper desperate. Brendan Fraser is great as the wild caveman. It's cute but not hilarious. Director Les Mayfield doesn't have the greatest comedic touch. The movie survives on the wild performances of Fraser and Shore.

GeoPierpont Less than 2% of the entire world's population carry the definitive maternal mitochondrial DNA from the Baltic Nations. Is it a wonder they chose this background for a million year old caveman to overcome death, high school and learn several languages within a few weeks?? Todally believable dude! This film never fails to deliver comedy, fantasy and some feel good moments, no matter the many repeated viewings. It remains one of my favorite check-out and ride the wave of unique script and theme.Fraser did such a competent job as the lovable Link, his meteoric rise to fame was inevitable. I could not envision any other in this role. As a SoCal semi-native, the earthquake scenes were very relatable but made to seem full of potent mystery and intrigue, the last thought typically on my mind, hence a welcoming singular perspective.I enjoyed the scene when Link tries to drink the runoff water in the street and spits it out, not even a caveman can do that! It was very curious how the two high school nerds could dress Link to look so kewl, especially that hair, where did they get all those ideas and clothes? So many other questions arise from this fanciful farce I assumed that to think too much would be a complete waste of effort and denial of pleasure. Hence, off with my head! The balance of fact and fiction was well done and made me long for yet another adventure at the Smithsonian. They actually have them bones on display. Enjoyed the happy ending, complete surprise but it could happen to you, eh? High recommend for young at heart and momentary feeble of mind.PS - Music score huge plus!

david-sarkies This is a somewhat predictable Hollywood movie about two high school students. They start off as unpopular nerds and finish as popular. The ending is even mostly predictable at the beginning. Dave is digging a pool and his dream is that he get with his childhood sweetheart and have a huge party at his house after the prom. The problem with this is that he is unpopular and that the girl he likes is dating another guy, who is the toughest in the school. Things change when they uncover a cave man after an earthquake brings him up.This movie is about popularity and how people crave it. Dave is the focus and he is the one that wants the popularity, and he sees Link, the caveman, as his key. It comes to the point where this creates a wedge between him and Link. Link is popular, but he doesn't bring the popularity to him, and this is what he resents. He does grow though, and he comes to realise that popularity isn't everything, and it is not what he does, or who he knows, but who is his. Link simply does what he likes and generally doesn't care what others think.This is a fun movie, and the character of Link is actually quite deep in an unusual way. One wouldn't expect the character of a cave man to be deep, but he is. He is trapped in a strange world alone and this shows. Moreso, he doesn't go for any woman, even though they throw themselves at him. Rather he wants the woman he left behind and doesn't betray her memories by going after another woman.Stoney is the other main character and he is simply out to show Link a good time. Dave considers him irresponsible, but that is because Stoney's agenda does not line up with Dave's agenda. Stoney at first didn't want to help Link, but the more he got to know him, and showing him things, the more he began to appreciate things. Dave wants fame and money, Stoney simply doesn't care. He hangs around Dave because Dave really wants friends and will take anybody.I guess this is a good movie, and what it shows is that popularity isn't everything. Link was friends with everybody, and this is how he lasted. People are so clicky, especially Dave. He wanted to be in the in crowd, and rejected everybody else. Link didn't care and he befriended everybody, and as such he became popular. When Dave accepted this he found that he was already popular.It is interesting to see how Dave and the popular guy are very similar. Everybody knows this guy was a possessive jerk, and he lost the girl halfway through the movie, but we could see that Dave's self centeredness also made him a jerk. The thing is that Dave overcame this, while the popular guy was shown up to be what he really was like. Dave's highschool ended on a high, while the other guy crashed and burned.
