Coasting on the successes of Gods and Monsters and George of the Jungle, Brendan Fraser turns in yet another winning performance in this fish-out-of-water comedy in which Pleasantville meets modern-day Los Angeles, with predictably funny results. Fraser stars as Adam, who was born in the bomb shelter of his paranoid inventor dad (a less-manic-than-usual Christopher Walken), who spirited his pregnant wife (Sissy Spacek, in fine comic form) underground when he thought the Communists dropped the bomb (actually, it was a plane crash). Armed with enough supplies to last 35 years, the parents bring up Adam in Leave It to Beaver style with nary any exposure to the outside world. When the supplies run out, and dad suffers a heart attack, Fraser goes up to modern-day L.A. for some shopping and long-awaited culture shock. More of a cute premise with lots of clever ideas attached than a fully fleshed out story, Blast from the Past is also supposed to be part romantic comedy, as the hunky Adam hooks up with his jaded Eve (Alicia Silverstone) and tries to convince her to marry him and go underground. The sparks don't fly, though, because Silverstone is saddled with the triple whammy of being miscast, playing an underwritten character, and suffering a very bad hairdo. Fraser, however, carries the film lightly and easily on his broad, goofy shoulders, mixing Adam's gee-whiz innocence with genuine emotion and curiosity; only Fraser could pull off Adam's first glimpse of a sunrise or the ocean with both humor and pathos. Also winning is Dave Foley as Silverstone's gay best friend, who manages to make the most innocuous statements sound like comic gems. --Mark Englehart

Blast of Fun
This movie is a "fun" flick. It makes you feel good about yourself, even when you stick out like a sore thumb. The script shows off Brendon Frasier's swing dancing talent, making the movie even more fun. <

Fun for most of the family
(3.5/5 stars) Aside from the stray profanity, this is a decent family movie. Brendan Fraser is charming as a young man who has spent almost his entire youth underground because his overly cautious father was a little too anxious to try out his self-built bomb shelter. Adam Webber (Fraser) learned almost everything he knows from his parents, played with goofy provinciality by Christopher Walken and Sissy Spacek. When it comes time for Adam to purchase supplies in order to restock the shelter and/or get married (dancing with mom just wasn't cutting it any more), he heads up to modern-day Los Angeles. As luck would have it, the first girl he meets, Eve, happens to fit all his qualifications for a mate, and she happens to be looking for an earnest doofus, which Adam fits to a T. So, Adam and Eve plan to populate this post-apocalyptic world with little Cains and Ables, apparently. Eve is played by the luminous, ever delectable Alicia Silverstone, and I can honestly say this is one of her better films. She has deserved so much better than she has had. This romantic comedy is unrealistic, but it is both entertaining as well as insightful. This is one of those movies that more successfully examines the concept of time displacement than science fiction films do. What happens when someone from the early 1960s is transported thirty years into the future? In retrospect, how much has changed in the past thirty years? For all our commonalities, how much has the human race changed during this period (for better or for worse)? Manners and the mentality of the Cold War are but two aspects of life this film observes. Pretty decent.
