Editorial Reviews

While vacationing in the Pacific Northwest, the Henderson clan's dad George (John Lithgow), mom Nancy (Melinda Dillon), daughter Sarah (Margaret Langrick) and son Ernie (Joshua Rudroy) accidently run over a strange animal with their car, and when they get out to see what it is, they find the seemingly dead body of a hairy Bigfoot-type monster (Kevin Peter Hall). Believing that the creature is a grizzly bear, the Hendersons take it home, planning to stuff the beast and put it on display in their living room. Predictably, the hirsute monster revives and is adopted by the family as a pet. Originally conceived as a TV series by comedian Brad Garrett, Harry and the Hendersons ultimately did make it to the small screen as a weekly syndicated sitcom in 1990, with Kevin Peter Hall repeating the title role during the series' first 24 episodes.

August 27, 2003: It's been some time since I've seen this movie, but I highly recommend it for any age. It's sweet, funny, and you fall in love with Harry from the very start, no matter what he does. I just wish it would come out on DVD!!

May 05, 2003: I fell in love with Harry!!! I have started taking hair growth medication to be more like him. My friend Vance and I watch Harry together each Friday. You will love this film, I don't care what Ebert said! The only thing that could have improved Harry would have been a staring role for the ''Hot nasty chicken'', Jackie Chan
