My Review-
I am not too familiar with the original television show or cartoon about this family, but I found the movie to be quite funny and liked the cast in the movie as well. At times the movie was a little cliche and slow down a wee bit but I think it is because of the way that the family was and how they expressed themselves. This is the second movie that I have seen with Raul Julia, the other being Street Fighter, and between those two movies I liked this movie more with him, maybe because it was sort of a comedy role, and he was not trying to destroy the world. One of my favorite actors in the movie was Christopher Lloyd, who I have always liked since Back to the Future. Seeing a young Christina Ricci was also pretty cool even though her part was a wee bit small. There is a sequel to this movie that I will watch and review as well, but not the third one since it has none of the original cast in it, and was direct-to-DVD, which is kind of lame. So all in all I quite enjoyed this movie and will most likely watch it again another day for fun.
