Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

richspenc I like 80s movies like this that take me back to my youth growing up in the 80s. Martin Short as the clumsy hypochondriac who sees his doctor in a nervous wreck and is told he has to learn to relax. His over the top nervousness reminded me of Mel Brook's 70s film "High anxiety" where Mel acts in a similar way, like someone who just had 10 caffeinated cans of soda. Short, after telling his doctor about a freaky dream of him helping an arragant woman customer at the grocery store he works at and him first, somehow ringing up extreme prices for her items (I like how she says "that's a little pricey for shampoo, don't ya think?), and then, the lady pulling a small gun on him, with him then waking up in a panic. Only a short time later, it happens for real at the store exactly like in his dream, and then the gun part, turns out to be a lighter. It doesn't matter; Short, who was already a jangled mess, completely snaps at the store in front of everyone. At a lab nearby, scientists are setting up an experiment for Dennis Quaid to be miniaturized in a submarine and be injected into a rabbit. Quiad gets into a sub, the sub starts spinning incredibly fast, then shrinks to microscopic size, and then pushes off into a syringe. High tech criminals bust into the lab to try to take over, a scientist with the syringe with Quaid inside it flees to a mall, and accidentally injects the syringe with Quaid into Short, who was at the mall to book a relaxation vacation (sorry Short, change of plans). The scientist gets shot, with his last experience being a bunch of people in animal costumes standing over him, and funny animal noises forming into his last conscious few seconds while looking at the people in the animal costumes. That bizarre moment was something particularly of the 80s where other bizarre style 80s films like "Killer Klowns from outer space" provided similar moments. We then get our story of Quaid traveling through the inside of Short's body, with fairly convincing special effects, to hook gadgets from his craft up to the insides of his eyes and ears to be able to talk to short and to be able to see whatever Short sees. The next hour of the film revolves around Quaid's and Short's experience of the two of them talking to each other, Short meeting Quaids girlfriend Meg Ryan (she was so young and beautiful here)(Short to Meg: "Lydia, shut up and listen! " Quaid from inside : "wow, you said it good"), Short explaining to Quaid's lab partners what's happened (I like how Quaid on the inside says "you better help out you two faced sonofabitch!", and Short tells them "he says 'thank you'"), and then Quaid and Short going after the bad guys. I always liked the bad guy, who looks all serious and intimidating in his suit and shades, with the machanical hand who can shoot from his finger like a gun, totally freaking out a kid in the mall while doing it. I also like the scene where Short drinks some whiskey, Quaid catches it with a vile while sitting in Shorts throat and drinks some himself, and the two of them live it up for a few minutes dancing around intoxicated (Quaid: "let the good times roll"). I found quite funny the scene where Short turns on the TV and Quaid says "oh great, I'm inside a guy who likes game shows". And also funny when Shorts TV and the monitor inside Quads ship catches fire at the same time, and then hilarious the way Short jumps while holding the fire extinguisher when Quaid calls his name. I also liked the scene in the doctors waiting room with Quaid on the inside of Short talking to him and the other people in the waiting room thinking he's talking to them, one of them asking if he was all right and Short yelling "would I be in a doctors office if I was feeling all right!?" I also liked Short and Meg's kissing scene with Quaid temporarily transferring over to inside Meg's body and finding a certain surprise. They could've done with out the unessessary add- on of the cowboy. It crossed the time limit of the movie over into slightly too long.

lcpierce2011-969-896169 I'd almost forgot I had this movie. I've watched it maybe 30 times or more. I still love every second of this movie. It's one of those Spielberg movies that you can't get out of your head. It just won't leave. This particular movie was hard to find, but I prevailed. The intense acting of Dennis Quaid, and Martin Short says it all. They keep you going with each quirk of energy they generate. Very well done movie. Some movies, you just go to sleep, but not this one. I guard my DVD like a hawk. I will treasure this movie just like I do my "Back To The Future Trilogy" collection. The same as, "Batteries Not Included", Inner Space is a Jewel of a movie that will never fizzle out with time. Time is on it's side. Meg Ryan just put the icing on the cake. Beauty, poise and great acting on her part. Meg put the right twist on the movie to give a tender, affectionate side. All the cast did a bang up job.

AaronCapenBanner Science Fiction comedy from director Joe Dante about an experimental craft accidentally injected into grocery clerk Martin Short, and the various government factions that desperately try to recover it, while the pilot(played by Dennis Quaid) tries to contact Short, and convince him that he isn't just hearing voices. Meg Ryan plays the girlfriend, who tries to help them both.Some good model F/X and a fine cast cannot save this silly and contrived film that goes on far too long; being clearly inspired by "Fantastic Voyage", film has a great deal of action and imagination, but doesn't know when to quit.

Liam wuthrich great movie love Dennis Quaid movies i own a few also i love martin short in Capitan Ron and other movie i saw him in also was Anthony Edward coach tom cruse and other actor over the year because of his involvement in the revenge of the nerd movie and i only don't no if tom cruse Dennis Quaid would be coached to do a movie to gather like the remaking of top gun and adding Megan fox to the bill-it and the other stand in and actors if tony Scott and other made a villain top gun involving Russia or japan or Cuba or Australia with all the show and TV that has come to Canada and the state from those country but if only the perfect script could be made with a budget and the red tap and department usually called upon to produce a movie also inner space was a great movie for that Ara with the current copy right law in-place and safety for the actor and crew's filming the movie at the directer admin department. also i still think tom and a great number of actor have issue with acting in movies but they have accept those values from day one and there agents and all support personnel off set and on set respect that because of all the changes and in Powell river change is good.
