that this movie got such a low rating, but I realize expectations are different and the movie plot clicked for some while others were turned off.
I remember liking this movie a lot (and I still do). I liked the cartoon series too but somehow I felt the movie was better.
I could see that they tried to re-create as much of the original cartoon in the movie. When I saw John Goodman appear, I said to myself: "Omigosh, that is Fred!" Also, the rest just seem to fit into their parts.
What I also liked was seeing the cartoon take "solid" form. Sure, the movements were clunkier but I was expecting this. I liked the car with the passengers using their feet. Though it didn't have the zip of the cartoon car, the semblance and feel were there. I got a kick out of the different creature machines though again different from the cartoon but "fleshed" out in the movie.
Lots of novels turned into movies disappoint some fans and make the rest happy. I'm one of those who liked this movie version of the Flintstones, not that I haven't been disappointed before. For example, I remember reading "Jaws" and it really gave me the chills but the movie with the big, heavy, floppy and clumsy white shark was nowhere near the novel ... but I enjoyed the movie anyway.
So, don't judge the Flintstones by the rating. Give it a try, especially if you're nostalgic about the original cartoon series.
I give it a ten.
