It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Clifford (Martin Short) is an obnoxious child who is making his parents' lives a living hell. To get a break, they send him to his uncle (Charles Grodin) to stay for the weekend. There, Clifford torments the uncle...and audiences with his antics."Clifford" is one of those incredibly ill-conceived films that makes you wonder who thought this would be a good idea in the first place. Imagine making a film very much like "Problem Child" but with an adult inexplicably playing the kid and you have "Clifford". Rarely have I hated a film this much and the actors involved with it. The film never is funny but is often cruel and unfunny. I have a hard time seeing how this film has an almost average rating, as there is literally nothing about the movie I liked.

As I sit in front of my computer monitor, I am trying very hard to sort out all of the extremely bizarre things that I witnessed in "Clifford" and write down just how exactly the movie fails. Okay, I paused for a moment after writing that last sentence, and I think I can start listing the movie's errors in judgement, and they all center around the title character. The character of Clifford simply does not work. Though he's supposed to be a 10 year-old boy, he is not convincing as one. He has a lot of bizarre adult-sounding dialogue that doesn't sound like it's coming from a real boy. Maybe his bizarre lingo was supposed to be funny, but I didn't laugh once hearing it. His comic mischief is also supposed to be funny, but isn't. It comes across as coming from a cruel, hateful individual who doesn't seem to be misguided or have a proper sense of humor. The various tricks to make Martin Short fit his character don't work as well. As an old man in the wraparound segments, he looks ghastly in his old age makeup. As a child, he looks like an adult in children's clothing despite efforts by the special effects team to make him appear to be shorter.Grodin, Steenburgen, and Coleman (who actually looks good sporting a beard) do what they can, but are hampered by the unfunny script and a director who doesn't seem to realize this was an ill-conceived project. The movie's unique failure at times makes it watchable in a car-wreck sort of fashion, but eventually becomes tiresome.

I just watched this movie on TV and came here to see what other people think about it. I was very much shocked to see that the lead actor Martin Short was 40+ when this movie was made. He is playing a 10 year old brat in this movie and I got to say he has done very well at that. Though he doesn't quite look like a 10 year old but he surely comes close to it. This is a movie about a 10 year old boy, Clifford, who is very mischievous and raises hell everywhere he goes. Sick of his mischiefs, his parents leave him with his Uncle who is a middle-aged man and is trying to convince her fiancée that he likes kids and that's the reason why he agrees to keep Clifford with him. As the movie goes on, Clifford completely destroys his Uncle's life with his pranks because he didn't take him to the local Dinosaur Park. Although the ending wasn't the best but most of the movie is really good. This may not be the best movie you'll ever see but its a nice one to watch with your family. I think kids will really like it. It is really hilarious. I was very surprised to see the IMDb user rating for this movie being a moderate 4.2 and that's why I thought I should stand up for this movie. I think its far better than what the rating suggests.

Clifford is one of the most hilarious movies I've ever seen. I think It's under rated and ashame that many people have not even heard of it, let alone seen it. The comedy in this movie is unlike any other. Though the ending of the movie is not really funny, the first hour makes it worth watching. Without Clifford, my life would not be the same. In fact, it would be incomplete. I hope everyone will experience the joy of watching Clifford. It is true that some people may find this movie stupid; however, i beg to differ. Martin Short is a genius in this movie. To not laugh during this movie would be a difficult and I dare say impossible task. I love Clifford with all of my heart!
