Summary: Munch-tastic!
Review: Back in those magical halycon days that are known as the "Mid-80's," a movie about a species of ghouls run amuk from late-night snacking was released to the North American public. That movie was Gremlins. It was quickly embraced by the public as a masterpiece and subsequently became a well-loved and undeniable classic. Not surprisingly, other movie companies and producers, seeing the huge success of Gremlins, were anxious to get in on the action and "munch" a piece of the lucrative cinematic pie. A whole slew of movies about small, terrifying, bloodthirsty, yet cute, cuddly critters inundated the public. The most popular of these was Ghoulies--like Gremlins, a trilogy. Until 1992, Hollywood and the public mistakenly thought that this genre was dead. But then came Munchie, which set movie-making special effects back at least twenty-years. In many ways, Munchie was both a spring-board for the actors involved and a coup d' grace. As you may already know, this was Jennifer Love Hewitt's first movie. And it may have been Loni Anderson's last. After Munchie, not even network televsion was willing to cast Amderson in a saturday night made-for-tv flick. Dom Deloise, who lent his fresh wit and unmistakeable voice to Munchie, was little affected in the way of his carrer. It seemed that he was too far removed from the American public's mind. After all, he hadn't appeared to a mass-audience since he occupied one of the squares on Hollywood Squares. That was some time ago. I don't believe that, at the time of its release, the public was ready for Munchie. Despite its painfully obvious influences, in many ways it was ahead of its time. The flying pizza--not "pizza's" as was claimed on the back of the video box--the parties, the antics, the hijinx, the pranks, and, above all, the love and friendship, all presaged the New Age movement that's presently sweeping the country. It was no accident that the character Munchie played an active role in the formation of nearly every ancient society's mythology and mores--as was touched base on in the film. Not-so-special and yes, even deplorable, effects aside, Munchie was a masterpiece, it was an example of the power of straight-to-video releases. Despite its technical flaws, Munchie was a testament to the power of humanity and love, and a pleasant reminder that we should all make an effort to look beyond the superficial and the venner, and that beneath these lies the essentials of life: love, happiness and understanding.

Summary: Munch on this
Review: Munchie can make pizzas fly down the street. They found munchie in some box hidden away in a mine or something. Jennifer Love-Hewit is in this. So is Loni Anderson. This is a heartwarming tale of a kid who finds Munchie, then gets springboarded to popularity. Munchie is cool. He looks stupid, and when he talks, his hands twirl around. Watch this movie late late at night with friends, you'll laugh your head off. That one big guy from Canonball run is Munchies voice.

Summary: Sometimes You Have To Help People In Spite of Themselves!
Review: Munchie is one of the best movies ever! Every time I see it I melt with pleasure for the inguinitive genius which Munchie gives my soul. I'm writing this review after seeing Munchie, the best movie of eternity of particles which float upon this planet in the cosmic galaxy, and Supertroopers which is the worst movie ever to have even been thought of eternity of particles which float upon this planet in the cosmic galaxy. I saw Supertroopers and my mind turned to mush. The only thing that kept our sanity was the fact that we had just purchased Munchie so we could enjoy the best movie of eternity of particles which float upon this planet in the cosmic galaxy whenever our hearts desired to do so. Who knew that you could buy: the fountain of orgasmic, mind-expanding, experimental, kitten-loving, grizzly old man kitten loving, Waking Life loving, Audrey Taotou (Amiele)loving, Incubus in Esperanto starring William Shantering loving, Matt and Charlieing, not DaNthonying, electric shocking, rocking, I'm only mocking, To Kill a Birdmocking, frocking, putting in the clocking Signs blocking, Importance of Being Jocking, Glee Clubing, and doneking, youth experience at Family Video for just $4.33!
First and foremost everyone in particles which float upon this planet in the cosmic galaxy should see this movie because you will love it, you will love the 70's, the green glowing while talking, Gage's fantasying, the hello my baby hello my darling, the pizza flying, the alien and kid partying, the grade changing, the locker beating, the Munchie tricking, Munchie's Operation: Desert Storm-a-ing, the partying with a keg-a-ing, the car-a-flying, the arresting, the open ending for a sequeling, and the Matt and Charlie applauding and last but not least, the sequel writing!
In conclusion, we believe we will leave with the sweet thought in your mouth that Munchie is God's gift to the particles which float upon this planet in the cosmic galaxy, if you have seen Munchie, God Bless YOU and if you haven't seen Munchie, I wish you a pleasureing journey (SpaceFans) through the land of Munchieville!
