Some kids want to investigate a dead body. Corey Feldman challenges a train, but his friends stop him. They arrive at a junkyard. Corey Feldman likes army terms. they talk about the size of a Mickey Mouse club girl's tits. Thy buy hamburger and bread for $1.50. They do alot of walking on railroad tracks. The songs are many, but all recognizable. The narration is annoying, and the movie starts off slow, but as the boys continue on their journey, they have more of a personality. Some leeches get on their backs. The script is pretty good, but the ending is kind anti-climactic. Still, I would recommend this movie because of the great Corey Feldman perfomance - probably his most famous role.
it scores: 5 out of 5

It's going to be tough following "Just one of the girls", but this movie has Feldman, Jerry O'connel, and River Fenix. Richard Dreyfuss is pathetic as a narrator. I suggest they use Mr. T. This movie reinforces an already common known fact: Don't mess with Corey Feldman. Another thing I noticed in this movie: the kid in red sucks! Like Star Trek. That's why he's the only one who didn't go on to greater future success. Because he's a bad, wimpy, non-feldman like actor. That's also why he grows up to be Richard Dreyfuss. Kiefer Sutherland is -dare I say- quite Feldmanesque in his role.

Conclusion: Richard Dreyfuss and the kid in the red shirt and the song easily cancel out Fenix, O'connel, and Sutherland. Feldman is well cast, though.

Rating: 4 MRU's out of 5
2.5 Feldman out of 5
Death Count: 3
(2 before the movie starts, and 1 in the epilogue. all off screen.)

ZACK

Ah, a movie with Corey Feldman again. Keifer Sutherland adds to the coolness, but Richard Dreyfuss's narrating takes away the coolness. Richard Dreyfuss also cancels out River Fenix's coolness. The makers of this movie are damn lucky, that they got Corey Feldman. This movie tried too hard to include 50's music.

Rating: 2 out of 5 on the Feldman scale
(The rest of the page was taken up with a picture of the fat vomitting on Richard Dreyfuss'es head, while Corey Feldman beats with a bat. That's how the movie should have been.)

Mat Suckitude scale: 6 out of 10
(Richard Dreyfuss earned 80 out of 10 on the Mat suckitude scale.)
