	The BigScreen Cinema Guide: Reader Reviews - Flubber
		Flubber is the kind of movie that you enjoy while the movie plays, but afterwards, you find yourself saying, "Wow, that was underwhelming." There are things to like about this movie, but I left the theater wishing I had chosen another film.
		Also, the special effects involving the Flubber are also very entertaining, particularly a sequence where the many, many blobs of the stuff end up doing a conga dance around the house.
		Go see Flubber and try to think as a child, full of wonder, and beliving everything you see, and you will be glad for the glimpse back into childhood.

	Filmtracks: Flubber (Danny Elfman)
		The "Mambo del Flubber," other than its composition, was the responsibility of Mark McKenzie, and is this score's version of the final track to The Fifth Element.
		Flubber is without a doubt, one of his finest scores.
		The "Mambo" feel he has given the score was a master stroke and with Flubber, he has produced one of his best works, up there with The Nightmare Before Christmas and Edward Scissorhands.

	FLUBBER
		Of course the real star of the show is the Flubber itself, and as Robin Williams normal persona is to Fred MacMurray's, this film's gooey substance is light years ahead of its predecessor.
		There are enough images of golf balls and bowling balls smacking the thugs in the heads that you might mistake this for the next film in that series, but alas, they've already made that third installment (coming soon to a theater near you, minus Culkin).
		There are several scenes where the flubber, or flubber-covered items (golf balls, bowling balls, etc...) ricochet through Phillip's lab, house, or other locales and break stuff (vials, windows, etc...) they hit.

	Disney Archives \| "Flubber" Movie History
		Flubber must take matters into its own, er, hands, to save the day.
		"Flubber" is based on Disney's 1961 release "The Absent Minded Professor." This time around, though, the mysterious goo called Flubber has taken on a personality of its own.
		Another special effects achievement in "Flubber" is Weebo, the professor's hovering, feminine robot assistant.

		While Flubber is very enjoyable it seems like the writers added details for the sake of cuteness without thinking about the implications.
		I also feel that with the Character of "Flubber" it was a waste of time considering I don't remember any merchandising from the character.
		I also feel that with the promotion of the Flubber substance that it was all shallow, and commericial as where in the original it was going to be put to good use in the military, and here it was to make a buck.

	Flubber (English/French/Spanish DVD)
		Packed with unmistakable Disney magic, FLUBBER explodes on the screen, fusing adventure, eye-popping visual effects, and the gravity-defying comic genius of Robin Williams.
		Is Flubber good enough to win Sara back, save Medfield from its financial problems, and slip through the hands of the evil financier who is bankrolling the college?
		FLUBBER slips, slides, giggles, glides, flips, and flies -- the stuff of surefire family entertainment.

	Flubber (1997)
		Armed with flubber, as he names it, he attempts to win Sara back while also saving the college from financial disaster.
		Now flubber is not just an anti-gravity rubber but is also sentient and highly imitative and even conducts its own song-and-dance numbers.
		The professor is now given the assistance of a cute robot who has a crush on him and expresses her emotions by playing clips from videos (which conveniently allows the film to shuffle through the Disney back catalogue).

	Danny Elfman 's Music For A Darkened People: Filmography - Flubber (1998) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		I finally did see FLUBBER and was impressed by the way Elfman's music works within the film, the special effects and Dean Cundey's expert cinematography (really the only reason to see JURASSIC PARK).
		Personally I think FLUBBER is a throwback reminiscent of BACK TO SCHOOL (the main theme also uses the same saxophone) mixed with the new bag of sample tricks Danny Elfman now employs.
		Not a controversey, but FLUBBER would seem to be Danny Elfman's first film score involved with his three-picture pact with Walt Disney Pictures.

		And, like both One-Hundred and One Dalmatians and That Darn Cat, Flubber was developed with the lone goal of being successful at the box office.
		The reason Phillip missed the wedding is because he made the scientific discovery of a lifetime -- something he calls "Flubber." A jello-like green goo, Flubber has the ability to energize anything it comes into contact with.
		But, when a wealthy businessman (Raymond Barry) learns of Flubber, he becomes determined to possess it, even if that means getting his two idiot henchmen (Ted Levine and Clancy Brown) to break into the professor's home and steal it.

	Reviews: Flubber
		Phillip discovers that flubber has unique properties that allow it to increase energy, and that may help him get Sara back, save the university and even help the university's not-so-talented basketball team.
		Once he figures out how to harness the power, the basketball team is leaping through hoops and Phillip has flubber-powered his car so it will fly.
		That's surprising considering the presence of the one actor who could be considered human flubber, Robin Williams.

		Notice how the flubber can be molded and then returned to its original shape unlike glue, which becomes solid, or the powdery borax." I always buy school glue on sale before school starts and save it to make this through the year.
		I have never had this stain and it is easier to clean up than playdoh.

		The moral of the story is that "love is more than science." Even though the Professor uses Flubber to "fix" a basketball game, it is recognized at one point as cheating.

		In Week #3, "Flubber" was squeezed out of #1 ratings by the astonishing superhit debut of Scream 2.

		A few other scenes were also done on University Avenue (near the Rose Garden): Robin Williams walking around in his pajamas, the flubber bouncing around the neighborhood, the two bad guys getting bonked on their heads with golf balls and bowling balls, and the car flying over the town.
		The scenes where Marcia Gay Harden got her dress tailored and when Robin fell backwards out the window were also done here.
