Review of Bio-Dome (1996) by Movietrailworld — 04 Jul 2018

There are films that are completely unfunny when you first see them and you vow never to let your eyes grace them again. Then you pick up a job lot of old VHS and find one of these films then feel a strange urge to take another look, maybe there is something you missed....

....let's be completely honest from the get-go, Pauly Shore is Marmite, hated by most. Stephen Baldwin is the brother everyone forgets. William Atherton was still dining out on Die Hard. It's all a big melting pot of facets that don't work, and they didn't in 1996.

But it does in 2018. It's a stupid film, it's a film only to be watched when you want to watch something stupid. Think of it like Wayne's World, it's a riot of stereotypical nineties grungey nonsense that you don't want to relate with but still somehow do.

We live in a world today where everything always seems so serious and everything always seems like it is beset by problems. We originally thought films like this were garbage simply because there were a lot more things that were funny in those days. It's not like that today so watch something like Bio-Dome, it's only 95 minutes of your life. You might cringe because you see a bit of yourself on the screen, but you were fun back then and I bet you are less fun now.
