Description

When a man raised in a 1950s era bomb shelter emerges into the outside world for the first time--to find a nice non-mutant girl with whom to repopulate the earth--meets a savvy, cynical modern woman, sparks fly, opposites attract and the result is a wondrous chain reaction in this romantic comedy for the nuclear age--Blast from the Past. Adam's (Brendan Fraser "The Mummy," "The Mummy Returns") hapless search in the brave new world of homeless people, adult bookstores and all-night supermarkets leads him directly into Eve (Golden Globe-nominee Alicia Silverstone "Clueless," "Batman & Robin," TVs "Miss Match"). She's suspicious, smart about survival and uncertain of the possibilities of love. Her life has been a series of dead-end jobs, shallow boyfriends and dashed hopes. But the more Eve watches Adam approach the world with wide eyes, comic miscomprehension, joyous delight and a deliciously sweet innocence, the more she begins to find herself falling ... in love?

    I absolutely love this movie. It’s funny how much more accurate the times seem to be in it now too. Give it a chance I think you’ll love it as much as I still do 20 years later

    The movie was for rent the other day. Went back to rent it and now it is only for sale. Tired of their prices. I can get a movie from red box for almost a buck. When you start to watch the movie, you have to see it within 24 hours. Not sure about you, but sometimes things get up. Be nice if I had 2-3 days to watch the rest if I am not able to finish it. Gave it an OK, because I have seen it way way back. But can not rent it at the moment.
  • This movie…

    It's so inconsistent on what's more important: the "dying" father that Adam has known for his life in a fallout shelter or the girlfriend that he just met? The girlfriend is not even an interesting character, she's whiny and annoying. The rest of the characters are fine and it is a weird but likable premise. But I was expecting he son to at least remember why he was sent up to an unknown world full of "mutants" and "cross breeds".
  • Wow
