Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

coex23 This is a near-flawless retro-style period comedy chock-full of sight-gags, pop culture jokes, great 70s music, and downright hilariously great casting. Really, you don't need to know the plot! If you know the 1970s in America, you are guaranteed to get 90% of the jokes! Otherwise, if you have no experience with 1970s pop culture, you might want to skip it. It's definitely funny without that knowledge, but it's 100 times funnier with it!David Cassidy plays the proverbial straight guy surrounded by lunatics, as he tries to rescue the future by time traveling to 1776 (oops, 1976!). The McDonald brothers of Redd Kross are the two hippie kids trying to help Cassidy and his team from the future. Why the McDonalds didn't get a 10 picture deal after this, I'll never know: they're incredibly fun to watch! Cassidy's team includes Olivia d'Abo and the brilliant physical comedy of Geoff Hoyle (he steals every scene he's in).While I loathe, loathe, LOATHE period films that try to do the 60s and 70s by using obviously fake beards and wigs, misguided music and slightly-off props; this film nails it. I have yet to see a contemporary film do the 70s this perfectly. The costumes, hair, actors, script, everything is dead-on. It also helps to have a ton of authentic 70s character actors, comedians and musicians turning in spot-on, expertly directed cameos!As I said, you might not like it if you weren't there. But if you were, this is your own private time machine back to 1976: You really can't go wrong with this film!

Michael Neumann Three intrepid time travelers from the distant future take aim for the year 1776, but a 200-year miscalculation brings them instead to an age of platform shoes, mood rings, and disco dancing. This harmless parody of pop culture during the 1970s is often more lame than the decade itself was, in part because it never tries to be any less superficial than the fads it pokes fun at. Everything is included: the music (Peter Frampton, Grand Funk Railroad); the trends (bean bag chairs, self-awareness seminars); and even the personalities (teen heartthrobs David Cassady and Leif Garrett, who apparently enjoyed spoofing themselves). The plot is a good natured plagiarism of 'Back to the Future' but, except for the exploding Ford Pinto, there aren't any actual time-warp jokes; the humor, such as it is, relies entirely on the stimulus-response of simple recognition. Filmed in beautiful downtown Alameda, California, with a cast of local actors alongside the many celebrity cameos.

mamamiasweetpeaches One day I had a hangover and I was lying on my friends couch DYING. He put on cable and this was on. Now...I was in a poor state...but I laughed my a** off. I have been trying to find an affordable copy of this movie so I can watch it again. If your like me and love 70s fads, style and culture you'll really like this movie. Stars David Cassidy.

hotbread Whoever came up with this concept deserves an award of some kind. Time travelers from the future need to visit 1776 to learn vital information about the founding of the nation. Unfortunately, something goes wrong, and the explorers wind up in 1976 instead -- without realizing it! Something didn't quite make it in the implementation, though. Maybe it is the obviously rock-bottom budget. Throughout the movie, you are acutely aware that you are watching a movie set with a few Gremlins and Pintos parked here and there. Also, the decision to cast some 70's heartthrobs (Cassidy and Garrett) as major characters was interesting, but these guys are not exactly Academy Award material, if you know what I mean. However, there are some pretty entertaining scenes, including Rob Reiner as the insane leader of an "est"-like cult.
