Innerspace -- 1987 -- PG

Kind of a science-fiction/romantic comedy going on with this one. When we open up, we find Tuck Pendleton making an idiot of himself and we realize right away that he's probably the main character. Shortly thereafter, we get him and Lydia making out before she dumps him. Nice little RomCom setup. Then he gets into a pod and gets miniaturized to be injected into a rabbit, but instead, bad guys show up and he ends up in the body of a supermarket assistant manager.

What follows is a Jack, the manager, running from the bad guys while trying to figure out what to do with his little passenger. It's a great little ride and not a bad film. Very imaginative and neat to see the inside of a body and someone travelling through it.

The ending was a little ambiguous and only marginally ties up the loose ends, so that's a slight weakness. But overall, it worked farily well for me.
