The film does have its downside as I felt it was moving a little slow in the beginning but the fun that I had from watching it made that a minor flaw. What I also liked about 'Blast From the Past' is that its comedy does not rely on crude humour (unlike most American comedies today). Of course they play Fraser's parents who have been living underground for the last 35 years. Spacek and Walken are cast against type and I have got to say that they provide some of the laugh out loud moments without going over the top. Fraser plays his awkward goofy naive persona that we've seen in a few other films but he still manages to be funny and likable and Silverstone is pretty and charming as she ends up delivering a decent performance. ![]() Silverstone and Fraser make an odd but fun romantic couple. Wilson maintains to sustain the movie's lightness as the screenplay is consistent. The plot does follow the romcom cliché where dude tries to woo dudette but here the dude was raised all his 35 years in an underground shelter, away from the outer world and that just makes the story funnier. ![]() It's very enjoyable as long as one does not expect anything serious. 'Blast From the Past' is a funny little romcom.
