Date undefinedThis Movie tugs at my heart cause I had just become separated from my spouse when it came out and I didn't have enough money to pay the electricity but I had a movie voucher for the theater up the street so I was able to retreat there for a few hours of Peace on a snowy day in Memphis.
This was a fine film with the great husband wife team of Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy. Miss Tandy plays a woman beset by alzheimers and Mr. Cronyn is her set upon husband who tries to keep them in their home of 40 years as a unscrupulous developer tries to tear the building down to build a yuppie haven.
Little living robots settle in the building and untimately help the residents push back the evil developers and save their homes.
The special effects were pretty neat and are the best part of the story. The plot after a promising beginning begins to wear thin after a while and the movie drags when the little UFO's aren't around.
There are a few laughs and some cute moments. Overall a nice movie to watch with the kids but there is some rough language in places.

Date undefinedThis movie has a bit of everything in it. Drama, humor and anything else you can think of that delights you. Of course Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy were the best anyway and wouldn't have done anything that they did not consider to be total entertainment. There are too few movies anymore that are of this class. Violence now seems to be all anyone makes anymore. Not the case here. Just wonderful entertainment and something okay for children to watch too.
