Meu Sobrinho é um Terror

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.

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 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!!!!

In this funny, but slightly crude film, Martin Short uses his young face and tricky camera angles, I think, to play the part of a ten year old boy. What is really funny is that he is obviously not a ten year old boy, yet he is perfectly capable of the role due to his bizarre sense of humour. This film showed on a television station that normally shows Disney B movies. Movies released in the 90's are not really my thing, but this one was really cute! There were a few offensive words and crude moments ( such as one reference to a "secret space" and other jokes about pedophiles ) but if these go in one ear and out the other, than it won't be a problem for you. Martin Short has the most hilarious face, capable of contorting to give a weird, childish look that creeps out even the on screen characters. The opening and closing shots reminded me of "Boy's Town" and gives us a chance to see Martin Short under layers of latex for his role as an elderly priest.

All in all, not a bad effort.

Martin Short was wonderful as Clifford. Imagine making a grown man look like a young boy? His dialogue with his toy dinosaur Steffan was funny as well as his relationship with his Uncle. In the end, they found a way to be happy together. He used his experience as a lesson for another young boy later in life. It was a change of pace from the ordinary and very creative. Sit back, relax and enjoy this film. Just don't take it too seriously. I don't think it was intended to be taken seriously.
