Harry and the Hendersons [Special Edition] [DVD] [1987]

I watched this a lot as a kid. It is still good!!!

A classic of my childhood, upgraded to a nice bluray. On of my fave 80s flicks

If you like the 80s movies this is a must have, especially since it’s available on blue ray

I greatly enjoy this movie. I think it gets negative considerations from people who don't appreciate what it's meant to be. An engaging family comedy, with just the right amount of sentimentality. My little children were riveted, loving the creature effects (Academy Award winning, I might add), and laughing throughout the movie at the clean comedy. Something comedies need to return to. It does bear the sensibilities of the times it was made in, for example: Animal Right activism via "Say No to Fur" type imagery and comments. But that doesn't distract too often and makes for some funny moments as well. This is an extremely memorable movie, with excellent creature makeup / puppetry.

If you grew up in the 80's, there's no doubt this movie crossed paths with your television screen at one point or another. It's a cult classic and serves up a ton of laughs with many life endearing messages seasoned in along the way. Jon Lithgow is fantastic and hilarious as usual and it's hard not to fall in love with Harry himself. I especially love the scene where Harry's watching tv in the recliner and laughing so hard at the show he's watching, that he throws food at the screen. There's just something about these movies that todays generation of film making just can't seem to capture anymore. This movie is definitely worth a re-watch if you haven't seen it in a long time.

One the the very few movies I've ever enjoyed that still makes me laugh out loud no matter how many times I watch it. The Blu-ray version provides better quality audio and video than I can remember ever. It's an endearing tale of learning how to respect nature and all it's creatures, ever when it practically destroys the life you thought you knew. All star cast with superb acting, directing and cinematography.

A charming movie about a family who unwittingly end up befriending a creature resembling "bigfoot". Aptly named "Harry", the creature is a gentle giant with a big heart and no aggression who just wants to live in peace. The costume for the creatue is quite believable. A light-hearted bigfoot movie without all the violence and horror. Just a fun family movie that avoids being cheesy.

Who wouldn't want to make Bigfoot part of the family? This is a funny heart warming story of how Bigfoot came to join a family. It has laughs and emotion jerking moments that keep you interested throughout the movie. Harry could come be part of my family anytime. It's a bit date for 2016, but still a good movie to watch.
