Flubber

Robin Williams stars in this remake of Disney's 1961 comedy-fantasy, the Absent Minded Professor. This is not just another one of those remakes of old ideas long ago filmed... this puppy has lots to offer, including the digitally reincarnated, mambo dancing, translucent, Flubber. What's refreshing though is that many of the gags are embellishments from the 1961 film, with John Hughes' rewriting of the original Bill Walsh screenplay (this info is for you real movie buffs). Also starring Raymond Barry. Running time: 93 minutes.
