Review of A Bug's Life

A Bug's Life (1998)
Foley tried his best(SPOILERS)
14 June 2003
Warning: Spoilers
I first saw Dave Foley when he was doing "Kids In The Hall". I thought he was a comic genius. But it wasn't until I saw he chemistry with Phil Hartman and Maura Tierney on "NewsRadio", that I knew it. "A Bug's Life" was in a difficult situation. "Antz" had opened a short time before and was doing quite well. "A Bug's Life" well short in quite a few areas. Julia-Louis Dreyfus (who was brilliant on "Seinfeld") is a truly horrid princess and I found myself rooting for Kevin Spacey in the Atta/Hopper scenes.

Though, It must be pointed out that Dave Foley was not the only one who had a hand in saving the picture. David Hyde Pierce stole every scene he was in and just think, if a stick could talk, wouldn't it sound like David Pierce? Dave and David managed to salvage this otherwise awful flik(No pun intended).
