The Ugly Dachshund see more Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Proving that sequels rarely measure up, Son of Flubber reunites cast, director (Robert Stevenson), studio (Disney), and concept (an eccentric inventor, played by Fred MacMurray, makes odd products with hilarious side effects), and still isn't as good as its predecessor, The Absent Minded Professor. MacMurray and company turn their attention to some new inventions, including flubber gas and dry rain, and while there's plenty of comedy to be had, the film is finally spotty and wears out its welcome. On the plus side, Paul Lynde is a funny addition to this follow-up. --Tom Keogh Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Needs to be in WIDESCREEN!!!!! A few scenes have words cut-off due to blowing the picture up and cutting the sides of the picture off. One key- scene of the football score has the score OFF-screen! Rating: - Great for kids and adults too. These old Disney live-action movies are great for family movie night. They're not as kid-centric (or sappy) as some of the newer movies out there (like Dora the Explorer movies or some of the Disney animated things). Plus, there's enough slapstick in them to keep the kids amused. "Son of Flubber" is just as good as "The Absent-Minded Professor" and they're both full of fun. Rating: - Son of Flubber This was a very timely and accurate delivery. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of the handling I got on this purchase. Rating: - Son of Flubber I grew up with Disney and this is just another of the fun movies that was made at that time Rating: - Flubber Fred MacMurray portrays the role of Professor Ned Brainerd, the Absent Minded Professor, again. Brainerd refines his flubber into flubber gas. As in the Absent Minded Professor which had a flubbered Basketball game, this time there is a sport game of football. Alonzo P. Hawk (Keenan Wynn), Disney's greatest live action villian, is back with his snake oil evilness aplome. Tommy Kirk reprised his role as Biff Hawk, the professor's friend and Hawk's son.
