Unearth a classic romance

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2001

Most "duck out of water" stories focus on the duck's perspective. How will he cope? Can he manage in a world so different? While "Blast From the Past" is definitely in that category of stories, the focus is almost reversed. We never really have any doubts as to whether our hero will cope with a strange new world, the question is, how will the world cope with him.
Brendan Fraser is perfectly cast as a young man seeing the world for the first time, after getting the ultimate sheltered upbringing; fall-out shelter that is. During the Cuban missile crisis his parents, Calvin and Helen Webber, retreat to their backyard shelter. This turns out to be a good idea as it saves them from a plane that crashes into their perfect 50's home, but the explosion only serves to convince them that the atomic war has commenced. Thus begins their 35-year exile under 20 feet of rich, suburban soil.
While not critical to the plot, we are treated to the birth and upbringing of young Adam Webber, as her learns science, languages and boxing from his genius father, Christopher Walken. His somewhat stressed and tipsy mother, Sissy Spacek, teaches him the fine art of dance and imbues him with impeccable 50's manners. It is like a sociology experiment. How will a man develop if he is exposed to the minimum range of consistent stimulus possible? This is especially true given that his unworldly parents actually try to shield him from the few harsh truths they do know, such as a nasty four letter word, "from the archaic French, meaning roughly good".
The clock ticks over and eventually Adam must face the new world. Armed with good intentions, good manners and a great shopping list, he ventures into the unknown... and immediately gets lost. But don't despair, he is half-heartedly rescued by a beautiful if cynical blond by the name of Eve, Alicia Silverstone. Once again, this is perfect casting. Adam and Eve develop a touching chemistry that forces us to buy into the whole kismet thing.
Eve and her quietly gay but witty companion Troy, guide Adam through the dangers of downtown Los Angeles, while he goes shopping for supplies and a wife. But while Adam learns quickly from his new tutors, they learn even more from him. They learn to feel again, to be honest and polite. They start to see the world as if through Adams eyes and are the better for it. The message here may seem to be one of rosy nostalgia for the good old days but I prefer to think of it as a comparison between cynicism and sincerity. You walk away from this film wondering if all that protective armour we wear, might only be weighing us down.

I love the movie BUT various sellers are sending out the wrong version!!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2014

Verified Purchase

I am not reviewing the movie, because I love it. I am however going to the review that a few sellers are sending out FULL SCREEN and " For sale only in Canada" versions of the DVD instead of the dual format (Widescreen and Full Screen) DVD that they are supposed to be sending out. I have received three incorrect DVD's so far and Amazon is currently working on the issue with me. Please be aware that when you order the dual format DVD you may actually get the full screen only version. I suppose this will depend on the seller.

Sweet, funny, romantic period 1960s movie

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2010

Verified Purchase

A view of a period in our history surrounded by fear and paranoia concerning the nuclear holocaust that was coming from Cuba circa 1962. This wonderful glimpse of the early 1960s mentality served up by Christopher Walken as the ever positive (yet prepared for the coming apocalypse) husband and father, along with Sissy Spacek's perfect mother, makes this romp a joy to watch. Brendan Fraser as the "spitting image" positive thinking, Perry Como loving, son makes a perfect entrance into modern day society after growing up in a bomb shelter. His innocent, loving approach to everything he sees makes a good movie and script even more enjoyable. Alicia Silverstone gives one of her best performances in film (along with the movie Crush, which introduced her). Her "seasoned" woman of the world approach offsets Fraser's boy man perfectly. The tone is perfect, and the performances are a delight. Look for a wonderful dance to Mr. Zoot Suit. If you don't love this movie, you don't like movies period.

What a great movie.

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2019

Verified Purchase

We had seen this movie on ShowTime and thought we would want to own it. It is such a cute movie. It shows how truly blessed we are to have family who loves you. The family in this movie may be fictional but it does show how truly obsessed with the cold war people were in the 50's. I loved the way that the scientist made there bomb shelter look just like there home. Loved Sissy Spacek, she was a hoot. We also are big fans of Brenden Frazier.

A fun way to waste 90 minutes

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2009

Verified Purchase

Without Sissy Spacek and Christopher Walken as the parents, this movie would not have been anywhere near as funny as it is. In the beginning, Spacek and Walken, eccentric in their own ways, take a ridiculous premise and make it believable enough that you could let yourself buy into the storyline. Brendon Fraisor does a decent turn as the son, though his acting verges on a one dimensional note. Alicia Silverstone does the cute love ineterest well enough, but her performance is not as entertaining as in clueless. These is an exceedlingly likeable film with likeable characters, and where even the ex-boyfriend isn't that bad. A fun movie!
