Plot Summary
Professor Philip Brainard, a brilliant but absent-minded scientist, invents a rubbery, bouncy substance called 'Flubber.' He hopes this invention will save his college from financial ruin and help him win back his fiancée, Sara. However, Flubber attracts the attention of a ruthless businessman who wants to steal it for his own nefarious purposes.
Critical Reception
Flubber was met with generally negative reviews from critics, who found its humor predictable and its plot uninspired. Audiences, however, showed more enthusiasm, making it a moderate box office success, particularly among families.
What Reviewers Say
Robin Williams's energetic performance is a highlight, but it can't quite save the film from its weak script.
The special effects are a bit dated, and the humor relies too heavily on slapstick.
A harmless family film, though unlikely to leave a lasting impression.
Google audience: Google users generally found Flubber to be an enjoyable, if not groundbreaking, family film. Many praised Robin Williams's comedic talent and the fun premise of the flying rubber. Some critics noted the film's predictability and dated special effects, but overall, it was seen as a decent choice for a lighthearted watch.
Fun Fact
