A teenager wins an interactive robot that plays shooting games. Soon it starts loading with real ammo and hunting down other kids. This film is a stupid thriller but still manages to be occasionally fun. ~ Sean D. MacLaggan, All Movie Guide

An angry Jason (Alan Thicke) confronts Ben's hockey coach (Dan Lauria), whose win-at-all-costs philosophy extends to teaching the kids how to play dirty. As a result, Jason ends up with a black eye--putting him in good company with the similarly "decorated" Ben. Meanwhile, Maggie (Joanna Kerns) tries to help Mike (Kirk Cameron) learn ballroom dancing so that he can impress his latest amour Jennifer Miller (Stacey Young). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Based on the Stephen King short story The Body, Rob Reiner's easygoing nostalgia piece is set in Castle Rock, OR, over Labor Day weekend, 1959. A quartet of boys, inseparable friends all, set out in search of a dead body that one of the boys overhears his brother talking about. The foursome consists of intellectual Gordie (Wil Wheaton), born leader Chris (River Phoenix), emotionally disturbed Teddy (Corey Feldman), and chubby hanger-on Vern (Jerry O'Connell). The boys' adventures en route to the elusive body are colored by the personal pressures brought to bear on all of them by the adult world. Richard Dreyfuss, playing the grown-up Gordie, narrates the film, while Kiefer Sutherland dominates every scene he's in as a brutish high-school bully. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
