	Blast From the Past (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.umd.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Blast from the Past is a 1999 romantic comedy film starring Brendan Fraser, Alicia Silverstone, Sissy Spacek, Christopher Walken, and Dave Foley.
		Much of the humor in the film is derived from his being unaccustomed to the lifestyle of the present (such as using the term negro, and believing shit is a French compliment), and relying on outdated methods, finding awe in simple things of modernity.
		The film finishes with Adam's parents at peace with their newfound freedom from containment (although the father ponders the physical implications of the accident in their new home's backyard) and Adam and Eve finding their love in one another, while Calvin starts measuring a new fallout shelter.

	Review:Blast From The Past
		A film with a decent concept but zero laughs, "Blast From The Past" tells the tale of the Webber family.
		The film spends entirely too much time underground when it should be moving forward to the point where the door opens...
		This film is absolutely frustrating, mainly because although it brings an interesting plot to the table, it has absolutely nothing new or fresh to say.

	BLAST FROM THE PAST - DVD
		The thrust of the film is Adam's ascent to the surface after the shelter springs open and Calvin takes ill; too weak (and too frightened) to re-enter society, Adam's parents require more food and supplies to survive in their underground dwellings.
		The film manages to surprises us, often: I did't expect, for instance, Adam to keep his previous life a secret--he blames his good manners and out-of-step social graces on being raised in Alaska.
		The image quality of either is phenomenal; since Blast from the Past was shot in Super35, there is less top and bottom picture info on the letterboxed print and less side info on the standard print.

		MOBERLY, Mo. -- Christopher Jackson knew something was up when his dad transplanted the white leather seats from their idled 1965 Mustang to the bed of the family pickup truck.
		They were nearly driven to extinction in the 1970s and 1980s by cable television, VCRs, land developers and the comforts of climate-controlled indoor theaters.
		But today, the National Association of Theater owners says there are more than 825 drive-ins, including many that have been reopened by drive-in theater buffs and preservationists trying to hold on to a piece of Americana.

	Blast from the Past (1999) - Movie Reviews from TopTenReviews.com
		Blast from the past, yet another teenager-geared movie was actually better than I expected.
		``Blast From the Past'' opens with a cocktail party in 1962 at the home of Calvin and Helen Webber, where some of the guests whisper about how brilliant, but weird, Calvin is. Their host, more...
		Although "Blast From the Past" often feels somewhat like "Pleasantville" in reverse, "Blast" mostly avoids the latter's serious commentary on the world and so it is inevitably not nearly as deep, but because of this, also does not fall into the trap of more...

	Blast from the Past - release date February 12, 1999
		Blast From The Past is a romantic comedy about the fallout of falling in love.
		The son of brilliant-but-paranoid scientist Calvin Webber (Christopher Walken) and picture-perfect suburban wife Helen (Sissy Spacek), Adam's bizarre upbringing was the result of a major tactical mistake.
		In the midst of the fearsome Cuban Missile Crisis, the Webbers witnessed a blast they thought must be the Big One, but was actually a plane crashing into their yard.

	An Unlikely Blast From the Past / Film, CD bring S.F.'s Charlatans back to life
		Although the group came apart at the seams and finally dissolved two years later, the musicians reunited eight years ago in a successful legal battle to reclaim ownership of the various tapes the Charlatans recorded.
		By coincidence, the release of ``The Amazing Charlatans,'' a 23-song British CD combining tapes from three sources (including an unreleased 1966 album), coincides with the debut of a documentary film by Mary Works, the 29-year-old daughter of a couple who worked at the Red Dog Saloon 30 years ago.
		In Works' engaging, affectionate film, the Charlatans emerge as the centerpiece of a wild and wacky little community, full of characters whose eyes still gleam as they recall the glories of summer 1965.

	Blast from the Past - TIME Asia Magazine, Jul. 05, 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		It's pure To, who's proved in classic cops-and-triad films like The Mission and PTU that he possesses a finely tuned mastery of suspense, of those last moments before the ordinary everyday plunges into sudden violence.
		The important thing, reasons one top officer (Kelly Chen), isn't just catching the bad guys; the cops also have to put on an impressive show for the legions of cameramen and photographers staking out the crime scene if the public is to be convinced that everything is under control.
		Even as the criminals are outwitting them at every turn, the cops feed doctored film and canned interviews to a frenzied media horde all too willing to lap up the lies.

	Blast From the Past : filmcritic.com Movie Review
		Maybe: “Blast From the Past is a thoughtful analysis of Cold War posturing and American paranoia in the 1960’s?”; I don’t think so.
		Let’s try: “Blast From the Past is a feel-good romp about a fish out of water who tries to make sense out of a world gone wacky!”
		The uber-hokey plot builds upon a jet crash-landing in the unborn Adam’s backyard on the eve of the Bay of Pigs, sending the folks (Walken and Spacek) down into the enormous fallout shelter below.

		In one of the most expensive sets to be created in the Bollywood industry, filmmaker Mani Ratnam has got an entire era of Mumbai to be represented for his forthcoming Guru.
		Apparently, only Abhishek Bachchan, who plays the lead role, is aware of the entire script of the film.
		Besides, a specially designed suit was made for Abby to make him look bulky and obese which took him four hours to put on and an hour to get out of it.

	DVD Review: Blast From The Past
		The DVD VIDEO: New Line delivers a wonderful 2.35:1 anamorphic transfer on "Blast From The Past"(a full-frame edition is also included, but cuts off quite a bit of the image).
		Images are clear, crisp and sharp, providing a very good amount of detail throughout.
		What's really worth noting is just how consistent this transfer stays throughout- exterior, interior, night, day, "Blast From The Past" remains vibrant, sharp and and beautiful.
