 | this is the funniest comedy i've ever seen! I watched it this morning and couldn't stop watching it but since at the end after Link beats up Matt, it's practically just music and dancing so I turned it off. |

| This movie is truely one of the crowning achievements of the 90's. Pauly Shore should have won the oscar. I wish there were more movies like this one. |

| Every so often, a movie, nay, a film, transcends the genre to surpass all that has come before. Citizen Kane did it. The Godfather did it. Encino Man does it, and I think all who watch it will agree with me that it is the finest piece of storytelling EVER committed to film. We all owe a profound debt of gratitude to Sean Astin, Pauly Shore, Brendan Fraser, and let us not forget Michael Deluise and the other members of this stellar cast that make Encino Man true CINEMA CLASSIQUE!! |

| The concept is, of course, totally unrealistic, that a caveman could be frozen for thousands of years, and still survive when thawed out. But that doesn't stop the viewer from having a great time watching. It takes a little while to understand Pauly Shore's Encino slang, but he definitely steals the show. Trivia note: the mother (Mariette Hartley) played the part of an ice age woman in the old Star Trek TV show. She was the woman that rescued Bones and Spock from the cold, and Spock fell in love with her. |

| After watching "Caveman" ASIN: 6302658489, to see what life was really like way back then, it is time to speculate on what-if a cave dweller was thawed out in our time. We can not just chose anyone to portray a cave man in today's environment. So we pick an expert that already thinks this way, Brendan Fraser. To balance this we must also find someone to portray the serious scholar that observes and guides him through the intricacies of today's environment from driving to the Seven-Eleven; that person can only be Pauly Shore. Every serious scholar must have a protagonist to anchor the story, hence Sean Astin later to play "Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron" (1995) ASIN: 6303801919
Will the displaced caveman adapt? Will he survive? Is the cheese old and moldy? And more to the point will you survive with out laughing to death?
