फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
I learned of Jim Wynorski when I happened to rent his "Chopping Mall" from my neighborhood video store in summer 2001 (the people who only knew Blockbuster have no idea what they missed by not going to neighborhood video stores). I saw a number of his other movies over the years, and have now seen his utterly bizarre "Munchie", about a boy who befriends a doglike being who has unlimited powers and delights in mischief.
For the most part, it was an "E. T." ripoff, complete with a divorced mom. I will say that unlike the beyond-atrocious "Mac and Me", this one at least wasn't a giant commercial, and had some authentically funny scenes (Munchie's gag in the principal's office, and then the party). For the most part, it was nothing that I hadn't seen before.
Well guess what? "Mystery Science Theater 3000" riffed it. This was definitely a movie that set itself up to get mocked. Among the famous people whom Jonah and the 'bots mentioned were Wallace Shawn and Judy Tenuta. They also said that Dom DeLuise voiced Munchie because Don Bluth wasn't making a movie at the time, and that Loni Anderson (as the mom) must've gotten this movie in her divorce from Burt Reynolds.
The rest of the cast includes Andrew Stevens (Stella's son), Arte Johnson and Jennifer Love Hewitt in her debut.

I really have to lay into this movie. The acting is terrible, the lines are awful, nobody sounds like a kid for one, secondly the adults are written like kids, it's atrocious. The film has no depth or emotion to it, just a series of pointless gags, including tripping on a banana skin....
The special effects are bad, the magical friend is very gratting and the ending is incredibly lazy. Children deserve better than this and I feel sympathy for the young cast who do their best with a poor piece of writing. Again and again with bad movies it comes back to the writing. If this was meant to be a comedy then at least put in some funny jokes for us.
Munchie can make pizzas fly down the street. They found munchie in some box hidden away in a mine or something. Jennifer Love-Hewit is in this. So is Loni Anderson. This is a heartwarming tale of a kid who finds Munchie, then gets springboarded to popularity. Munchie is cool. He looks stupid, and when he talks, his hands twirl around. Watch this movie late late at night with friends, you'll laugh your head off. That one big guy from Canonball run is Munchies voice.
My review was written in June 1992 after watching the movie on New Horizons video cassette.
T&A director Jim Wynorski tries on the family film with good results in "Munchie". Picture opened in May in Nashville, but is mainly of interest to video fans.
The Title is a bit confusing, since the singular "Munchie" is a sequel to Bettina Hirsch's 1987 film "Munchies". That kind of moniker reversal is rare, though Universal remade the 1939 classic "Destry Rides Again" in 1954 as simply "Destry". (Adding confusion, Universal's original 1932 version was also called "Destry Rides Again").
Thi time, the one critter, an oversize smiling puppet voiced in wisecracking style by Dom DeLuise, is discovered in a mineshaft by young Jaime McEnnan and becomes his pal, helping him with bullies at school and magically granting other wishes.
Film laks the frenetic nature of its models, such as "Gremlins" and other imitations like the "Critters" and "Ghoulies" series. However, Wynorski's pacy direction and frequent sight gags keep things moving and entertaining.
McEnnan is an ingratiating young hero, and Loni Anderson makes for a most glamorous single parent. Arte Johnson has little to do as a neighboring archaeologist (filling the role of Harey Korman from the original), while Andrew Stevens overplays his nominal heavy as the hero's future stepdad.
Effects, such as a flying pizza, are minor, with the accent on comely, Wynorski's trademark of buxom women in the cast is amply delivered not only by Anderson but Toni Naples as Mcennan's math teacher and Monique Gabrielle as a sexy secretary to the principal.

Bobhoperocks is right that this is not a sequel...but it does state on the cover box that Munchie is a sequel to Munchies. And if you liked Munchies, you won't like Munchie because it sucks. Plain and simple. The two have nothing to do with each other. I know I'm repeating myself here, but come on...I mean, come on...!!
