Editor's Notes and Comments:
Description:
Packed with unmistakable Disney magic, FLUBBER explodes on the screen, fusing adventure, eye-popping visual effects, and the gravity-defying comic genius of Robin Williams. The resulting concoction is a hilarious adventure for all ages. Brilliant but befuddled Professor Phillip Brainard (Williams) is on the brink of inventing a revolutionary energy source and missing his wedding to fiancee Dr. Sara Jean Reynolds (Marcia Gay Harden) -- president of financially challenged Medfield College -- for the third time! When Phillip experiments with his own big bang theory, a miraculous elastic good -- Flubber -- emerges, leaving him ecstatic, but unmarried! Phillip and his flying cyber sidekick, Weebo, soon discover that Flubber, applied to anything, enables it to bounce super high and fast. However, many questions remain. Is Flubber good enough to win Sara back, save Medfield from its financial problems, and slip through the hands of the evil financier who is bankrolling the college? FLUBBER slips, slides, giggles, glides, flips, and flies -- the stuff of surefire family entertainment. Now you can bring home Disney's box office hit that's two parts innovation, three parts imagination, and '100% pure fun!' (CNN)
Amazon.com:
Disney couldn't resist the temptation to remake 1961's popular comedy The Absent Minded Professor, so they cast Robin Williams as Professor Philip Brainard (a role vaguely related to the character originated by Fred MacMurray), and the result is a comedy that, frankly, doesn't fully deserve its modest success. It's admittedly clever to a point, and certainly the digitally 'flubberized' special effects provide the kind of movie magic that's entertaining for kids and parents alike. The professor can't even remember his own wedding day (much to the chagrin of his fiancée, played by Marcia Gay Harden), and now his academic rival (Christopher McDonald) is trying to steal his latest and purely accidental invention--flying rubber, or ... flubber. The purple goo magnifies energy and can be used as an amazing source of power, but in the hands of screenwriter John Hughes it becomes just another excuse to recycle a lot of Home Alone-style slapstick humour involving a pair of bumbling would-be flubber thieves. There's also a floating robot named Weebo and some catchy music by Danny Elfman to accompany dancing globs of flubber, but the story's too thin to add up to anything special. Lightweight fun, but, given the title, it lacks a certain bounce. Of course, that didn't stop Disney's marketing wizards from turning it into a home-video hit. --Jeff Shannon

I'm not much for remakes, but really can you go wrong with Robin Williams? There's a scene in here that is perfect for the potty humour lover in every family! Funny family flick!

Flubber has been veiwed so many times I can't remember. It is a wonderful movie that when my older childern grew out of it was quickly passed on the those who were younger and so on and so forth. The VHS version was replaced by the dvd version. Never fear tho the VHS was sent to our friends for their children. Robin Williams is fabulous in this movie and Flubber is full of chuckles, giggles and lots of excitement.

Oh, my gosh this is a fun movie that will make your family tickled pink. And if you don't have a family, this is a great movie to take a date on, because it is the complete opposite of the usual shoot-em-up garbage that is playing at the local theater. And if you can get that special lady/fella to laugh (as they will most certainly do during Flubber), then you are well on your way to a great, great night of romance.
Flubber is the story of Robin Williams inventing Flubber which makes cars fly.
Flubber stands for flying rubber and it does just that in this movie called Flubber. And Robin Williams was born to play the part of the absent-minded professor whose hijinks are utterly charming from the beginning of the movie until the very end. If Flubber came in flavors I would expect it to taste like lime or patchouli!
Children need to believe in magic again, and Flubber embraces the world post-9/11 in an honest and compassionate manner. Plus, Robin Williams is hilarious as a man in this movie (he was also great as a woman in Mrs. Doubtfire!)
You will love Flubber and so will your grandparents. It's flubbing fantastic!
