Critics practically ripped through celebrated G to PG-rated movies from the ’90s and if you were a kid at the time, you should be righteously outraged. Of course, the Audience Scores for most of these movies tend to be higher, which proves the power will always be with the people.
But it would be cute if the critics shared the love.
Hit the flip for some memorable kids movies from the ’90s that might’ve completely flew over the heads of the too grown movie buffs.
Sure The Land Before Time gave us talking dinosaurs, but We’re Back gave us talking AND singing dinos. Listen to “Roll Back The Rock” and tell me you won’t be singing along with the T-Rex.
Yes the lead kid had a slightly inappropriate relationship with a grown woman. And yes the flick resembled another kid vs. criminals movie (hey Home Alone). But what kid doesn’t want to watch a movie where an eleven-year-old splurges on thousands of dollars, including buying a house, a water slide and a massive tub of ice cream.
Arguably one of Sinbad‘s best roles….despite him basically playing the emotional mule for a privileged White kid the whole time. But come on, that dance tutorial scene? Classic.
If you don’t laugh out loud at least once while watching this movie, you’re not a human being. Yes it’s completely ignant at times, but the cameos are LEGENDARY. Sinbad, George Clinton, Shaq, Carmen Electra. Still on repeat in 2019.
