Rating: Summary: Two great laughs Review: ---"Encino Man"---
A brilliant what-if movie
After watching "Caveman" ASIN: 6302658489, to see what life was really like way back then, it is time to speculate on what-if a cave dweller was thawed out in our time. We can not just choose anyone to portray a cave man in today's environment. So we pick an expert that already thinks this way, Brendan Fraser. To balance this we must also find someone to portray the serious scholar that observes and guides him through the intricacies of today's environment from driving to the Seven-Eleven; that person can only be Pauly Shore. Every serious scholar must have a protagonist to anchor the story, hence Sean Astin later to play "Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron" (1995) ASIN: 6303801919
Will the displaced caveman adapt? Will he survive? Is the cheese old and moldy? And more to the point will you survive with out laughing to death?

---"Son-In-Law"---
Love in the country
A rural girl (Carla Gugino), the farmer's daughter, is sent to a big city school. There she meats and embraces the outside world. Evidently it is true that you can't keep them down on the farm. To escape a fate worse than death (marriage to a local yokel) she contrives and cajoles a fellow student Crawl (Pauly Shore) to be a pretend fiancé and potential Son-in-law.
Now the clandestine meeting. The family slightly dysfunctional believes they found a weird dude to tinker with his mind. Sot of reminds you of a rural "My Man Godfrey". Crawl brings out the best in people and corrects the dysfunction.
The real question remains will he really be the "Son-in-law?"
