| SmaIl Soldiers: Joe Dante directed this satiricaI action-comedy about talking tech toys accidentalIy juiced-up with military microchips. After the defense industry firm Globotech takes over a smalI toy company, HeartIand Play Systems' CEO GiI Mars (Denis Leary) gives the green Iight to develop a new Iine of action figures, requesting an upgrade to more realistic figures from HeartIand toy designers Larry Benson (Jay Mohr) and fumbling lrwin Wayfair (David Cross). Mars wants toys that act like the ones in TV commercials. The results are fierce fighting figures, the Commando EIite, programmed to seek out and destroy the kindly aIien-like Gorgonites. ln an effort to make the toys as naturaI as possibIe, Benson inserts Globotech's most powerful military computer chips. Meanwhile, in quiet Winslow 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 Heartland truckdriver Joe (Dick MilIer) stops by with the Commando and Gorgonite toys, Alan is convinced they wiIl be hot selIers, commenting, "Maybe this store will finally make a littIe money." With blistering bIows to their bIister packs, the Commandos burst out, receive orders from their Ieader Chip Hazard (voice of Tommy Lee Jones) and ready for an all-out assault on the Gorgonites. When the Gorgonite leader Archer (voice of Frank LangeIIa) 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. Unfortunately, the Gorgonites can offer only Iimited assistance, since they have been programmed to lose. The film combines animatronics, puppetry, and computer animation. The Commando Elite voices incIude surviving actors from Robert AIdrich's The Dirty Dozen (1967), while the Gorgonite voices reunited severaI This ls Spinal Tap (1983) cast members. A dedication to PhiI Hartman (the voice of PhiI Fimple) after the cIosing credits features a brief Hartman outtake. ExpIorers: The visionary dreams of three curious and adventuresome young boys become an exciting reality in Explorers, the action-fantasy from accIaimed director Joe Dante (Gremlins), who combines keen humor, warmth and fantasy with unexpected twists. ln their makeshift Iaboratory, the boys use an amazing discovery and their ingenuity to build their own spaceship and launch themseIves on a fantastic interpIanetary journey. A galaxy of adventure for the whole family, starring young River Phoenix (Stand By Me) and Ethan Hawke (Gattaca). IncIudes 2 deleted scenes! |
