Mr. Atlas

What a surprise, this is fun for kids and even us adults had a fun time looking at this flick. At least we didn't worry about having the kids look at some aggressive murder crap that usually is shown to kids nowadays. All of my woman friends drooled over this dude that played Mr, Atlas. Surprised he hasn't made it big time in Hollywood yet. No one looks like that. Forget scrawny, weasely Bratt Pit, Tom Cruise and the other dudes that try to look buff and tough. Thank goodness he doesn't live in my hood, I would have to say bey bey to having a date with a pretty hot chick with him around. It's competitive enough as it is. Where do guys like that come from? Life aint fair. And then there is this chick Laura Johnson, not bad. Lucky Atlas got to wrestle her tongue for a bit. It also shows cool houses and beautiful scenery. It deffinately shows of Utah in a good way. Also nice they eft that religious crap out of the story, when movies are made in Utah one never knows. All in all a good film for an independent project...keep it up. C.D.

A very simple film. For the adults, we have a gorgeous bod for the women, and some female legs any man would love to be close to. But this is strictly an under 10s film, and they will most definately find this a fun film to watch.

Anyone older than that though, unless a true little child at heart, will find this hard to tolerate and watch. No unreal special affects (some minor ones), which are the go these days. Predictable all the way to the end, unless you're under 10. But in the end, this is low budget and simple, and I don't think the film producers were attempting to break records.

This film is SAFE for the kids, so you can be secure in letting the kids watch it without checking it first. That angle is fairly rare these days, as even some rated Gs can be highly questionable.

Watch it. Enjoy it. But don't expect too much out of it. 5/10

If you're looking for a Hollywood action packed kid-flick with the common bad language and violence this may not be the film to sit down for. If you're on the other hand interested in watching a film with youre children that has actually some values like showing the importance of friendship and truth this is the film to watch. Looking at the program guide this is obviously what millions of other viewers have found. Not many low-budget independent films have ever been aired as much as Mr. Atlas. The film is actually very funny as well as warm hearted and shows some beautiful locations masterfully captured by the sharp eye of the obvious brilliant cinematographer Suki Medencevic. Also if you're interested in looking at a muscular fellow with good looks the ladies can get an eye full. Let's support those who make good childrens film buy buying their videos and watching their products on TV. Enjoy

Oh... my... god... this is without a doubt the absolute cheesiest movie I have ever seen. The acting is bad, the story is weak, the characters are weaker, and the whole film just doesn't make sense. Couple this with mediocre directing, really strange scenes (such as the one where the kid reaches over the ravine and mysteriously falls in), and thoroughly abysmal dialog ("Look!" "Musta peed his pants!"), and you get one complete failure. Not to mention the fact that the only thing Mr. Atlas looks like he could defeat is a case of chocolate bars. But this is part of the movie's charm. Sit down and watch it with a few of your friends for a good laugh.

I love this movie, because it's just SO BAD!

A youth gets a bad hair day, goes out on a hill, and falls into where he can't escape. Then, he meets MR. ATLAS, a "mythological" dude from 2,000 years ago as his very best friend, and an Arnold Schwarzenegger look-and-sound-alike. His Herculean strength helps the boy out of danger, and later adjusts to modern life. So what's the big deal? This is the lousiest idea for a "family" outing! Either way, this one shouldn't have been attempted at all, really! Our fictional character of might and brawn is nothing more than a typical stranger who appears ordinary to the rest of the universe. To add to the blasphemy is the lack of anything new or appealing, and before you know it, there is some attempted violence that doesn't qualify this as "family" entertainment. The scene where Atlas complains of his undershorts is gaggling, though. Just spend a nice, quiet afternoon in the park for a change.
