One of the best movies I have seen!

5 stars

17 Dec 2020

Flubber is comedy movie with universal appeal. It is slapstick comedy and it really tickled my funny bone! This movie is about a professor who works at a college which is threatened to be closed down. He wants to stop that from happening. He finds out a way to make an energy source which is like a kind of flying rubber so he calls it Flubber! Meanwhile he misses his wedding (again!) His ex-friend wants to marry his fiance called Sarah.

Will his pet robot Weebo and of course Flubber help him stop the college from closing and will him and Sarah get back together again? Well there is another bad guy in this story, a man who is behind all of this ''closing down'' business.

The professor makes lots of things with his Flubber, and even tries to win a basketball game using bouncy Flubber on shoes and hands!

My favourite character is Weebo the flying robot.

This has become one of my favourite movies. I could watch it over and over again. (-:
