Let me get this right out there: Don Johnson is amazingly good looking and in the 80's I so wanted to jump his bones. Whew. But his acting has long been underrated and this is the show that highlights that. Just watch the episode "Evan." But the entire cast is excellent, the writing is strong and solid and the technical aspects, from lightning to direction to sound all paved the way for future video makers. Is some of it dated? Probably. Does that lessen it's place in TV history? Not at all. Each time I watch an episode, I see something new. It's a TV series that will be remembered for years to come. And I still want to jump Don Johnson's bones.

A sweet funny movie

I don't know why so many people are trashing this movie. It's not trying to be any more than it is, a fun kid-friendly movie that adults can appreciate, too. I laughed out loud more than once, and Robert Downey Jr. is always enjoyable. My one complaint is that there should have been more of Barry the tiger.

Watched the entire movie, still don't know what it was supposed to be about. Something about aliens snatching people for some reason that's never really made clear. Perhaps the makers thought they were being deep and meaningful but it just wasn't.

Well worth it

Funny, a little raunchy, and a treat to see some of the great ladies of Hollywood acting again. It proves that young isn't always better and maybe some up-and-comers could learn a thing or two.. Andy Garcia is always classy, Craig T. Nelson reminds us of his comic skills while still showcasing his dramatic chops, and Don Johnson is still a gorgeous hunk who manages to appear human.

I wanted to like it more than I did because while the movie as a whole was well done, the time line bothered me. Characters kept referring to actions that happened 30 years ago. The movie is clearly set in 2011 because we are shown a newspaper with that date. 30 years before 2011 was 1981. The Vietnam war was long over by then. It might be a small problem to some viewers, but how hard would it have been to be accurate and say 40 years ago, or to have set the movie in an earlier date? Of course, younger actors would have been needed for the major roles if the movie had been sent in a time before 2011 and it's good to see older actors getting jobs in this youth-obsessed culture.
