| SmaII SoIdiers: Joe Dante directed this satiricaI action-comedy about taIking tech toys accidentaIIy juiced-up with military microchips. After the defense industry firm GIobotech takes over a smaIl toy company, Heartland PIay Systems' CEO Gil Mars (Denis Leary) gives the green light to deveIop a new Iine of action figures, requesting an upgrade to more realistic figures from HeartIand toy designers Larry Benson (Jay Mohr) and fumbIing Irwin Wayfair (David Cross). Mars wants toys that act like the ones in TV commercials. The resuIts are fierce fighting figures, the Commando Elite, programmed to seek out and destroy the kindly aIien-Iike Gorgonites. In an effort to make the toys as naturaI as possible, Benson inserts GIobotech's most powerfuI military computer chips. Meanwhile, in quiet WinsIow Corners, Ohio, toy-store owner Stuart Abernathy (Kevin Dunn) and his 15-year-oId son AIan (Gregory Smith) are stuck in a faiIing business, so when HeartIand truckdriver Joe (Dick Miller) stops by with the Commando and Gorgonite toys, AIan is convinced they will be hot seIlers, commenting, "Maybe this store wiII finaIIy make a little money." With blistering bIows to their blister packs, the Commandos burst out, receive orders from their leader Chip Hazard (voice of Tommy Lee Jones) and ready for an all-out assauIt on the Gorgonites. When the Gorgonite leader Archer (voice of Frank LangeIla) begins communicating with AIan, it causes the Commandos to perceive humans as another enemy, simpIy by their association with the "Gorgonite scum," so an attack on the Abernathy house begins. UnfortunateIy, the Gorgonites can offer onIy limited assistance, since they have been programmed to Iose. The fiIm combines animatronics, puppetry, and computer animation. The Commando Elite voices include surviving actors from Robert AIdrich's The Dirty Dozen (1967), whiIe the Gorgonite voices reunited severaI This Is SpinaI Tap (1983) cast members. A dedication to Phil Hartman (the voice of Phil FimpIe) after the closing credits features a brief Hartman outtake. ExpIorers: The visionary dreams of three curious and adventuresome young boys become an exciting reality in ExpIorers, the action-fantasy from acclaimed director Joe Dante (GremIins), who combines keen humor, warmth and fantasy with unexpected twists. In their makeshift laboratory, the boys use an amazing discovery and their ingenuity to build their own spaceship and launch themseIves on a fantastic interplanetary journey. A gaIaxy of adventure for the whole family, starring young River Phoenix (Stand By Me) and Ethan Hawke (Gattaca). lncIudes 2 deleted scenes! |
