Clifford (1994)
Wretched wrubbish
21 August 2008 - 10 out of 20 users found this review helpful.
I worked on the advertising for this film so I saw it many times.
The fact that many people seem to find it funny is chilling. It is lame, witless distasteful, poorly staged and acted and generally nasty looking. The strange writhings of Martin Short are deeply embarrassing and at no point can he possibly be mistaken for a 10 year old boy.
If this was an on purpose plot point it is never developed or exploited. Instead you are expected to believe in this grown up (though odd) man as a juvenile, for no other reason than the film makers pretense that that is what he is.
About as funny as a collapsed lung. Why it was ever made is yet another Hollywood mystery.
