The greatest movie ever made..!

Excellent but underrated film
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
This film has everything. Flying pizzas, wacky humor, a fat guy in a sailor hat playing the drums. You won't find another film as magnificent as this unless you count G.I. Joe the Movie. It's about this kid named Gage who finds a magical creature named Munchie. Munchie ends up making Gage's life perfect. Seriously, there is pizza in his life and everything. This film will also teach you and your kids valuable lessons. Yes, it is OK to throw away food in your bedroom. Whoever made up that rule is obviously wrong cause Gage does it in this movie. It will also teach you that it is OK to hijack an airplane as long as it's for fun. Most importantly it teaches you not to crash your car into the donut shop cause there are cops in there. Watching this film is one thing everyone should do in their lifetime. It's easily more important than graduating high school.
Everybody needs a good friend at times. In the movie "Munchie", it proves what I mean. You got a kid who lives with a divorced mother(Loni Anderson). They've relocated, he's not popular at school, he doesn't like the new boyfriend, life is bad. Until he makes a friend with a magical creature named Munchie(voiced by Dom DeLuise). Munchie loves pizza, and he is one true friend anyone can have. He helps him with the bullies, get him the girl of his dreams(Jennifer Love Hewitt), and most of all get rid of the jerk boyfriend of hers. It wasn't long when she opens her eyes about her boyfriend after he finds him drunk and passed out. The other star I truly like is actor Arte Johnson playing the kind and helpful Professor Cruikshank. He will be entrusted deep to him. This movie was rather campy. The cast was good, and the storyline is common. Not the greatest thing, but is highly watchable. 2 out of 5 stars.
This is the funniest movie I've ever seen. Get blazed with your friends at night and prepare to laugh until your spleen explodes. There's hundreds of classic, quotable moments: when the bully's head slowly turns toward the camera as he prepares to tear Gage Dobson down. Gage's constant hallucinations (a firing squad? His own funeral? Is this really a kids' movie?). Chaos in the pizza place: "let's try Chinese instead!" The constant slew of subliminal dirty jokes and cleavage shots thrown in for the dads. The bouncin' soundtrack of farting tubas and tinkling synths whenever Munchie gets into mischief. Munchie is pure, unadulterated comedic genius, perhaps only surpassed in brilliance by the 1994 sequel, Munchie Strikes Back. Where is the triple-disc Criterion Collection version?
Munchie is not a sequel to Munchies as the cover box will try to make you believe. I don't remember a thing about this horrible movie since I saw it so long ago, but the critter in question is nothing like the critters in Munchies. I hate people that make sequels that aren't actually sequels, i.e. Troll 2, Halloween III, and this schlock of a movie. SEE MUNCHIES! DON'T SEE THIS!!!
