• Warning: Spoilers
    I have to say that when I was a lot younger I occasionally watched a "Flintstones" episode on television. So I was curious to see what this new film was about. I knew that i couldn't care less about the wrestler part, so I had almost no idea who all these people were. Still, the Flintstones core story kind of delivered. Fred wants to take his family and friends on a holiday, but he loses all the money. So he convinces Barney to go with him and take a journey into the world of Wrestling. I did like that they included some of the original funny moments of the television series from over 50 years ago, like that household items are made of dinosaurs. And all the other prehistoric references were fun to watch as well. Biggest flaw was possibly Wilma's voice for me. Yes the actress is super experienced, but she was way too old for the part. Wilma sounded like her own mother or as if she had smoked 10 cigarettes every day since the original cartoon series ended. Oh yeah, this one is not 44 minutes long as stated on the IMDb title page, but 50 (with credits), so this is almost a feature film already, not a short movie anymore. Decent watch all in all, some good moments in terms of the story, some boring ones too unfortunately, but as a whole not a complete disappointment. The animation is fine as well. Enjoy your stay in Rockapulco, Fred.
