Many fans have made it known that “Blast from the Past” is a Brendan Fraser flick people have been sleeping on for far too long. The 1999 film still works in the modern era according to some Reddit users, like u/U-235, who called the film an “unintentional period piece,” saying, “watching it today, the ‘present day’ scenes are so painfully 90’s [early internet, geo metro, etc.] that they actually do to the 90’s what they were trying to do with the 60’s, making the perfect time capsule.”
U/Evilbidowner showed the romantic comedy some love as well, stating, “this is one of my favorite movies of all time.” Other individuals also expressed their adoration of the comical motion picture, like u/Joe_F82, who wrote, “The best!! Such an underrated movie,” and u/Dark_Vengence put it simply that the movie “never gets old.”
But all the buzz shouldn’t be that surprising. When it came out, Roger Ebert said in his review for RogerEbert.com, “the movie is funny and entertaining in all the usual ways, yes, but I was grateful that it tried for more: that it was actually about something, that it had an original premise, that it used satire and irony and had sly undercurrents.” While it may not have won any major accolades, Fraser’s efforts in the ’90s rom-com have left fans with a blast from the past they can enjoy even today.
