Lee Eisenberg OK, there have been so many movies about cool kids trashing the adults' rules, that another one would hardly register. However, "Camp Nowhere", about some teenagers creating a summer camp sans adult supervision, has some pretty cool stuff in store. No doubt, all kids have at some point wanted to do something like this. And if there's only going to be one adult at the camp, I'd say that Christopher Lloyd probably would be the right person to have.So, don't expect to see this and have some sort of religious experience (although there's no guarantee that you won't have one); just expect to have fun (that's pretty much guaranteed). Also starring Jonathan Jackson, M. Emmet Walsh, and even a very young Jessica Alba.And that end scene was sure a shocker!
roisin17 In true Paul Newman/Robert Redford fashion, this film screams fun. With a unique cast, led by the ever eccentric Christopher Lloyd, a former drama teacher leads a team of kids to a summer camp free of work, parents or any authoritative counselors. He is encouraged by four bright but disgruntled youngsters who dread the thought of spending summers being trained to live up up to their parents expectations: fat camp, acting camp, military school and computer camp. But the shenanigans do not come into classic play until the kids' parents insist on visiting them at their "educational" camp. This joins ' The Goonies' and 'Willow' and one of the many films that my own kids will grow up watching...but I think if you are watching this film...like me, you are far too much of a child yourself to be thinking about actually having children!
TimCalhoun This movie was great when I first saw it as a child years ago, it was great when I saw it a few days ago, and it will always be great. as a child the movie embodied my hopes and dreams of a camp away from parents where I was in control. The acting from young stars was surprisingly good. The movie is simply most kids' dream which makes it a childhood classic.
El Cubico Involuntarily I have watched this one on TV. It was good, had an okay storyline (even though pretty unrealistic... but that applies to all movies of this kind), and most importantly it didn't have exaggerated cheap and lame humour a lá Police Academy or similar. This one might even entertain grown ups. I'd say this movie was one of the better kid's flicks (not saying that Police Academy is one, but honestly, it's a big piece of crap). However I can't judge the original version since I've seen the German dubbed version which was pretty ok. I think it's underrated here at IMdB. I give it a kids/comedy rating of 7/10 (please note that this is not a generic movie rating. imo you cannot judge all kinds of movies the same).
