Flubber
1997
**
Director: Les Mayfield
Cast: Robin Williams, Marcia Gay Harden, Christopher McDonald, Clancy Brown
A formulaic and utterly predictable children's film about a professor who invents flubber (flying rubber) but neglects his love life. At times it's very reminiscent of Home Alone, thanks to screenwriter John Hughes, but it's actually a remake of The Absent-Minded Professor.
