This is a fantastic movie for kids and parents to watch together. Some of the jokes and content will be over some younger kids heads, but the idea that "imaginary" friends for kids is really out done in this movie. These friends that come to the kids come when the kids are in the most need of comfort and laughs because of a divorce, abuse, or over protective smothering parents. There is a scene in a pyschologists office when you can see all the different imaginary friends and they all are buddies too. The main character, played by Phoebe Cates, is going through problems in her marriage and with her very overbearing mother, and her old buddy Drop Dead Fred comes back into her life so that she can see the truth and be sort of protected. The silliness of him in her life, makes her see the problems that are going on around her, and his presence makes it easier for her to "grow up" as an adult and change her life around and take charge of her own life. A great fun silly movie with lots of laughs and a serious side that really touches the heartRead full review

It was kind of a slow movie to watch. A person had to really concentrate on the entire movie for it to be kind of fun to watch.

Drop Dead Fred is a forgotten classic comedy! I love the movie. This version on my 65" 4K HDTV and in 4K HD Bluray/DVD player is a little grainy as other movies on dvd from that time period, so the picture isn't perfect crisp quality, but it just adds to the nostalgia for me! Definitely worth purchasing to watch this funny movie!
