Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
... View MoreThere is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
... View MoreThe movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

... View MoreThis movie shows Pauly Shore at his best. So many great lines. Shhhhhhhhhhhhh. Can u say he's buff? The father from License To Drive is in it. Link------:) as if(lol). Stonage. This movie is better than average like movies today. Is it great? Nah, but in a 6 range.
... View MoreDave Morgan (Sean Astin) decides to dig his own swimming pool for an end of high school party. Along with his wacky best friend Stoney Brown (Pauly Shore), they find a frozen caveman Link (Brendan Fraser). Dave is in love with his old friend Robyn Sweeney (Megan Ward). However she's now out of his league with douche bully boyfriend Matt Wilson (Michael DeLuise) and dismissive friend Ella (Robin Tunney). Link gets thawed out and tries to adjust to the modern world with the help of the boys. Link becomes the cool new guy in school with Dave and Stoney tagging along.It's sometimes fun. Pauly Shore is actually likable as the wacky sidekick. Sean Astin is a bit too hyper desperate. Brendan Fraser is great as the wild caveman. It's cute but not hilarious. Director Les Mayfield doesn't have the greatest comedic touch. The movie survives on the wild performances of Fraser and Shore.
... View MoreIt was a great teen movie with great 90's actors like Pauly shore and Brenden Frasier and how it was weird to link that the world he once knew is now replaced with our world and Pauly shores classic lines like "wizzin the juice" and "munchin on grunge Buddy" are magnificent, all and all this movie was pretty good and i own it and i love to watch it all the time.The craziest part of the movie is when link discovered the new world and he was playing with Davids dog and he mistaken a garbage truck for a colossal mammoth and when he is at the bar and he gets in trouble by the Mexican gang for taking the Mexican leaders girlfriend and how Pauly Shore,Sean Austin and Brenden Frazier are a spectacular team together.
... View MoreWhile digging a pool in his backyard, Dave Morgan uncovers a stone-age artifact and realises that this is his way out of geekdom (the irony of that escaping him totally). However he is even more shocked to find a stone-age man frozen in a big block of ice. While trying to work out what to do with this discovery, the discovery defrosts and sets off around the locality bewildered and confused. Dave and his friend Stoney catch him up and decide that the only way to keep him safe is to pass him off as a high-school exchange student a plan that produces hilarious consequences! My plot summary is pretty accurate right up until the final two words because this uninspired teenage slacker comedy is nothing new, nothing special and nothing particularly funny. The film appears to have been created to try and ride the wave of such comedies that had been started by Bill & Ted and Wayne's World, however it forgets to reproduce the laughs of those films and just settles into easy scenarios, basic "fish out of water" gags and a narrative that is about as old as the prehistoric title character. In this regard it failed to engage me and never tried to be anything other than basic and it rewards viewers who are only happy with it working at this level but will likely just come off as rather tiresome to those that expect more. Laughs are rare and require you to be in the mood rather than doing the work to actually put you in the mood and the plot, like I said, goes exactly where you know it will after about 10 minutes.The cast cannot do anything to raise the material and they are just left mugging along. Fraser has the main role and perhaps the easiest fooling around and looking silly; however he is as poor as the material although it is not his fault. Astin is dumped with the narrative to carry and he suffers with it. Shore marks out his future career path by managing to be unfunny and annoying with his character. The rest of the cast are the usual high-school clichés and none of them do anything at all of note.Overall this is a poor comedy but one that you might enjoy if you are target audience for this sort of basic fare. The jokes are simple, the plot is predictable and boring while the cast just try to do their best they can, which really isn't any good at all. Will appeal to some but to the majority it will be something that is forgotten in less time than it took to watch it.
