Review of Camp Nowhere

Camp Nowhere (1994)
6/10
Lloyd Steals the Show
5 July 2020
Firstly, after revisiting this movie, I can easily say Christopher Lloyd steals the show! I love how he plays different characters to convince the kids' parents to send them to camp. It's pretty funny, and Lloyd is absolutely the best part of this movie!

Secondly, anyone that's a "Back to the Future" fan will enjoy the scenes where Lloyd interacts with a Tom Wilson, playing an incompetent state trooper. It's kind of fun to see Wilson play the fool, and not a bad guy.

The kids do an alright job. A lot aren't particularly memorable, but this is a reasonably easy going film, just meant for yuks. It's from the '90s, but luckily doesn't feel ridiculously dated.

I was a tad surprised at the language, including a few "G-D" words. I mean, the content is a little more harsh than your usual kids flick, but it's not non-stop, or overtly explicit.

I like the idea of revisiting this film every so often, as it's just fun, and doesn't take much effort to enjoy. A film, in my opinion, that's a decent recommendation to older kids, and '90s nostalgia fans. 6/10
