Episode description

Robin Williams starred in Flubber, the 1997 remake of the film The Absent Minded Professor. The movie was a box office success, but did not garner positive critical attention and has all but completely fallen out of the pop culture. Today we take a second look to determine what this movie does well, and are surprised to see the visual effects hold up remarkably well. The AI romance, maybe not as much.
