Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

ladymidath First of all, I have to admit to being a fan of Ray Bradbury. I read I Sing The Body Electric many years ago and I thought that it was a sweet and touching story.I managed to find a copy of The Electric Grandmother on VHS and I still have it in my collection. The Electric Grandmother is one of the saddest sweetest films I have ever seen, I still cannot watch it with being brought to tears. The acting is superb and Maureen Stapleton is perfectly cast as the android grandmother.The music is lovely and again perfect for the mood and theme of the film. It is a timeless classic and sadly I have never seen it on DVD.The Electric Grandmother is up there with The Peanut Butter Solution and Paper House, a must for anyone who loves quality family movies.

tricam I remember viewing this movie in school (High School). I thought it was a really neat movie. The concept was innovative at the time, and I thought it was neat. I would highly recommend watching it. I thought the characters presented some real people. Of course the children were brats, but what kids aren't? I thought it helped to see the side of our families when we have lost a member. It's funny, I hadn't thought about this movie until I heard that Maureen Stapleton had passed away. In fact it was her picture on the news that reminded me of her portrayal. I don't recall the other members of the cast, but the acting was reasonably fair and certainly good enough to not make me dislike the film.

jimmypowell Three kids, their father and their grandmother! The grandmother dies, and the kids are devastated! They go to a special store where they are able to order a new grandmother! One exactly the why their departed grandmother was. She arrives and to their amazement, she looks, acts, feels, and even talks just like their real grandmother! However there is a twist, Shes electric! But the new one can do some cool things, like pour milk out of her finger and mix pancakes with a mixer attached to her hand. She is electric so therefore she dose not require sleep, however she dose need to be plugged in at night. So each night she sits in her rocking chair, plugs herself in, and shes good to go for the next day! I watched this movie when I was a little boy. I am 31 years old now and still have great memories about the film. I found this rating site because I am looking to buy it for my son. I have had no luck as of yet on buying it, but hope to. If you get the chance to buy this film, you will be very happy. Not only is it for kids but also for the young at heart. Just an awesome movie! I cant say enough about it. I sure hope I can find a copy of it for my own collection. My grandmother passed away when I was 12 years old, I sure wish I could just go to the local store and buy another one just like her.
