If you enjoy humorous movies that showcase the nostalgic early 60's: Matinee is one you won't want to miss. Absolutely hilarious from start to finish.
Filmed in the 90's, John Goodman is at his best in this one, supported by a stellar cast of actors (including a lot of terrific young actors) who were all perfect in their roles.
I also love movies that have a "film inside a film" feature, as was the case here, featuring "MANT" (half man, half ant) as part of the fun. ;-)
Not only is this movie fun, it has some sweet reminders of a simpler time and slower pace of life. A feel good film your whole family will love.
If you happened to have been around during the 60's (I was just starting school!) this film will appeal even more.
It's also the kind of DVD to keep on hand when you've had a less than great day and need some big-time laughs and a perfect film escape.
Loved everything about this one! :-)
Overall rating for this DVD: Excellent. 5 out of 5.
Great review. This is such a funny movie and it is nostalgic too.
