Movie Reviews

United Press International - 8/10 by Cathy BurkeWhile E.T. had tears to spare for everyone in the family, Harry and the Hendersons is strictly for the kids.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Rick GroenUnabashedly lefty sentiment colors the whole film.
The Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Duane ByrgeHarry and the Hendersons is a disappointment.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Michael WilmingtonIt's overwhelming and, in a curious way, it's charming, but at the center, even though you see it in the right place, you detect not a heart, or a mind, but something like a hot, roasted marshmallow beating and burbling within a thickened, ursine breast.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Dave KehrIt isn't hard to take, but Harry and the Hendersons seems a bit familiar.
Slant Magazine - 5/10 by Eric HendersonUnabashedly lefty sentiment colors the whole film.
Film Threat - 5/10 by Clint MorrisUp there with E.T, as one of the top family flicks of the 80s
Washington Post - 4/10 by Hal HinsonIt's about learning to be human and, on that level, it's utter schlock -- cloying, manipulative and overcute. You could see it on another level, though -- as a comedy about an obnoxious houseguest -- and feel a little kinder toward it.
The New York Times - 1/10 by Vincent CanbyAttention must be paid when a movie is as aggressively awful as Harry and the Hendersons, though it's so pin-headed that it could be the last of its inbred line. It's not likely to spawn.
User Review - 10/10 by Brandon MIt was a really funny and really enjoyable live-action family film. It had great cinematography, great cast, really good comedy, very well done makeup, really great costumes, great music, great characters and a very good story. I haven't seen this movie in a very long time. Great for both kids and adults.
