Meu Sobrinho é um Terror

Am I one of only a handful of people who think Martin Short is hysterical? The only way a goofy plot like the one in this film could possibly work is if the lead actor was a true genius of comedy, a man among Canadians, a charming elf-like creature I like to call Martin Shortman. Martin Short relies heavily on facial movement and voice tonal changes to make his character Clifford funny. Through the annoyance of his dear Uncle Martin surely we all can get along and laugh together as a family of opinionated movie viewers just looking for a good time, a few chuckles now and then to make us forget that we have low paying jobs and live in shoddily built ranch-style homes overlooking well built but poorly placed sewage treatment plants. Bottom line is that if you really like Martin Short then you will think this movie is hilarious, if you don't then don't waste your time because you can't have it back.

Horrible plot horrible script I mean a 40 yr old man playing a kid...,,,, But yet short somehow makes this work it's a light hearted comedy that I found Rather enjoyable you need to not be so uptight and just be like what the hell To enjoy this movie if you can't do that if you take yourself to seriously you won't like it And you be like a few reviewers on here and hate on the movie Be warned it is normal to loathe the character of Clifford Your either gonna love the character of Clifford or want to kill him lol

This movie is ingenious: an absolute masterpiece. One of the smartest and most original movies I have seen in a long time. Martin Short in the best role of his career playing a conniving, manipulative, all-around brat and absolutely shining while he does it. No one else could pull this off so effectively and convincingly. Charles Grodin and Mary Steenburgen are also excellent and at their finest. A MUST SEE!!!!

Clifford is a hilarious movie that is suitable for all audiences. i was 5 years old when it came out, so i didn't actually see clifford until i was about 9 years old.

since then i have watched it many times, and each time i get a kick out of this classic comedy. whoever thought of making Martin Short play himself as an older man and a child was truly a genious.

Just last night i went to a youth night at my church, Desert Springs Bible Church. we had a movie madness night, and everyone set up chairs, blankets, and pillows to watch a "mystery" movie. When the time came to present the movie, everyone was extremely excited. finally my youth pastor announced that the movie was "Clifford". In the beginning, everyone was bummed because they though it was "clifford the big red dog", but as soon as they realized it was CLIFFORD, we were all really excited.

all throughout the movie, i heard extreme laughter coming from the other youth, and me! this movie is exceptional, and if you don't like it, you need to work on getting a better sense of humor.

Yeah Buddy.

This is one of the most disturbing movies I have ever seen. That makes it just more than a bad movie. Martin Short could be seen, as Clifford, as an incarnation of the devil. Clifford is so evil sometimes that it verges on the scary. The look in his eyes is very singular.

My favorite scene is when Charles Grondin tells Clifford :

"Can't you just act like a human boy for a second here. Look at me like a real person. You can't do it more than few second. Look at me like a human boy!"

And Clifford that's not able to look human! AH!!! Pure madness!

I really don't know why this movie was made, but I admire the crazy people who dared to follow their weird instincs.
