The Flintstones and the Rubbles are modern stone-age families. Fred and Barney work at Slate and Company, mining rock. Fred gives Barney some money so he and Betty can adopt a baby. When Fred and Barney take a test to determine who should become the new associate vice president, Barney returns the favor by switching his test answers for Fred's, whose answers aren't very good. Fred gets the executive position, but little realizes that he's being manipulated by Cliff Vandercave to be the fall guy for an embezzlement scheme. |

This is a brilliant piece of film adaptation of a classic TV animated cartoon, that brilliantly captures the tone of the original series. The gags are delivered with deadpan seriousness, which makes them work very well. It is well cast, especially the leads of John Goodman, Rick Moranis, Kyle MacLachlan and Halle Berry. Even the kids come across as convincing versions of the animated characters, which is totally amazing!
Of course the most outstanding element of this movie is the magnificent production design, art direction, and other elements that make the recreation of a "20th century-style Stone Age" very involving to hang the story on.
But as I said before, what I really like about this movie is the excellent deadpan comic style, which up to that time hadn't been effectively presented for a long time (certainly not in Hollywood productions anyway). The general feeling at the time was that 80s-90s big budget Hollywood couldn't handle satirical or farcical comedy very well. The wit got lost in the mix. And Steven Spielburg proved them wrong. To quote from a professional critic: "Well, if you're going to make a feature adaptation of a one-dimensional TV show, I guess this is the way to do it". How's that for a back-handed compliment? High praise indeed! |
