Summary: Galaxy Glue!!
Comment: This brings back memories of all the great 80's flicks on HBO. It may not be Oscar Award caliber, but it's a great movie for the family to enjoy.
I wish it would be released on DVD though. My sister & I still quote lines from this movie...remember "Run Sidney! Run!"
And we all remember Concepcion dancing around in the kitchen & cramming egg shells down the disposal on top of Pat who's fallen down the drain!

Classic! Can't wait until the powers that be release this one on DVD!!

Summary: Why isn't this on DVD???
Comment: I really wish they would put this on DVD. I have a very old copy that my aunt taped from Showtime back when cable was very primative. The beginning is cut off (it starts as they are driving down the road from the grocery store with everyone saying "Hi Pat."). Anyway...if there is a studio producer reading this...PUT THIS MOVIE ON DVD!!!!

Summary: The Incredible Shrinking Woman
Comment: It would be amazing in reality if products can really do to a person what they did to Pat Kramer (aka Lily Tomlin) in this spoof of the feminine side to The Incredible Shrinking Man. Pat Kramer who is a well-known and well-loved citizen in a town where she always shops, where her neighbors love her and know everything about her, and her husband (Charles Grodin) who is into advertising and coming up with names for products, which Pat just happens to try at home, do something to her matabolism. The special effects that show her shrinking are quite awesome and amazing. The dolls and toys scene is hillarious! And the ape Sidney at an institute where Pat gets kidnapped because they want to do experiments on her blood as to why she's shrinking. What amazes me is when Pat was on the podium on her last shrinking phase telling everyone she's about to go, she swims in a pool of fabric softener and comes back???? As funny as it seems they leave you hanging at the end cause when her husband tries to put her wedding ring back on, it won't go and she GROWS and her shoes explode. One thing I will say is at the end the little jingle that they use for the glue product GALAXY GLUE it is an annoying and catchy won't get out of your head tune sung by an unknown named LINDA NOVEMBER but as I said if you have nothing else better to do, this movie is one to watch in the humorous stage. The ape to me seems to steal the show when he helps Pat escape from the institute. I hope that they RErelease this movie on DVD cause it is a cult classic if there ever was one. It stars Ned Beatty (Superman, Superman II, Deliverance, The Toy), Charles Grodin (Seems Like Old Times, Mupper Caper, The Woman In Red, Midnight Run, Beethoven), Lily Tomlin (playing three parts herself, her neighbor Judith, and the one she played on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In the snorty annoying operator which you'll only see once so don't miss it!) and a cameo appearance by Mike Douglass who had a talk show back in the mid 80's. Let's hope that this will come out on DVD....anyone else think so?

Summary: One of my favorite childhood movies.....
Comment: I first saw this movie when I was 8 years old. I LOVED it then and still love it today as an adult. I am saddened that it has yet to be released on DVD. I still consider Lily Tomlin to be a comedic genius. I simply fall in love with every character she plays. This is a wonderful movie for both kids and adults alike. They don't make them the same anymore. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who is in the mood for good, wholesome entertainment. C'mon people! The movie is about a woman who accidently spills experimental perfume on herself and starts to shrink. So it seems as though everyone is trying to save her except a few bad apples who are trying to exploit her. She buddies up with a gorilla, and well, I can't give the ending away! There is a really cute song on the movie called "Galaxy Glue." Please release this on DVD soon!!!!!!

Summary: Good entertainment
Comment:


Not one of Lilly's greatest, of course, but anything with Lilly Tomlin in it is bound to be entertaining. The theme revolving around shrinking people (i.e.: The Incredible Shrinking Man, I shrunk My Kids, etc., etc.), is wearing a little thin by now, so everything depends upon the cast--in this case, Lily Tomlin, and she does hold it all together with little help.

It is a pleasant way to spend an evening, with a few laughs for everyone. Lily plays at least three parts. It is hard to imagine a world without people of genius like Lily, who can make even the mundane seem funny. She is one of the great comediennes. I place her in the same rank as the late Gilda Radner. I can offer no higher praise than that! She is reason enough for watching any film, for me.
