Review of Innerspace (1987) by David T — 07 Mar 2010

Classic 80s teen adventure movie.

I donâ??t think you could make a Innerspace or even a Jurassic Park these days, movies for kids and teens have moved on from the 80s/90s movies we all fondly remember, that innocence has gone, the special effects donâ??t wow like they used too, movies need to be more immersive for the latest generation who can get an Innerspace experience and more by playing a computer game, and for that we may never see the likes again, A generation missing a Goonies, Stand By Me, Honey I Shrunk The Kids or even a Uncle Buck.

This is not to say that a younger audience wonâ??t enjoy these classics, just we donâ??t have a John Hughes around to make them.

Innerspace is a very enjoyable action packed Sci-Fi adventure with the stunning Meg Ryan, Dennis Quid and Martin Short.

A disgraced but very talented fighter pilot is giving the chance to reclaim his status as one of the most talented pilots alive by manning a pod around a rabbit using a new shrinking machine, but unwittingly finds himself in a hypochondriac after a terrorists plot is foiled and the pod is injected into a Safeway assistant manager.

And so beginnings one of the 80s finest fun filled, feel good movies of the decade.
