Diagonaldi Very well executed

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

katekit Disney Channel has been VERY disappointing lately with the quality of their shows. Lizzie Miguire and Even Stevens were great, and thats why i started to watch Disney Channel. Phil of the Future quickly became my favorite show, with great acting, and great cast, and its absolutely hilarious! When Disney started to make these new shows, like Life with Derek, and The Buzz on Maggie, i simply stopped watching Disney Channel except to catch Phil of the Future. Even my mom loves Phil. Shes its one of the only great Disney shows left. Its a real shame that its canceled. I'm fighting to save the show and i hope that other fans will join me. Phil of the Future needs our help!

Bradley Baum This is a superb show! It has a wonderful script, a wonderful cast and a fantastic plot! Whilst heading home from a holiday in the Stoneage period, the Diffy's get stranded in the current time frame (a time frame that is 118 years into their past) and must try to fit in as best as they can. This is done extreemely well indeed. In fact I would go so far as to say that they managed to fit in a bit too. well. There are good points and band points to that. It would be nice if more was made of them being out of time and out of place such as having a few more futuristic gadgets around the house that have to be explained away as being normal things used in the current time zone or things that are futuristic but actually COULD be used in the current time. Such as a hover chair that rises and moves the person from one room to another just by speech or thought before lowering itself down and making sure the person sitting in it is comfortable. Or a thing that looks like a telephone on the outside but inside it is all sorts of wizardry that means it could say, make real things appear when a button on it is pressed and the item is spoken into the telephone. The time machine is a bit like that idea in the sense that on the outside it looks like a mobile home but the inside it definitely isn't! More of the supporting cast and a bit less of the main two would be better to. The cast are amazing. They all play their parts superbly well, that's why I want more of the supporting cast on screen. The order of screen time is this: Ricky Ullman and Allyson Michalka get the vast majority of it followed by Amy Bruckner and then Craig Anton and Lise Simms But I would like to see more of the parents and the sister. The screen time in some episodes could be equal so that their characters could bounce off each other more often and Bruckner and especially Simms and Anton could show their characters off more. Thank the lord Disney thought about us adults as well as the children when casting! Michalka is seriously pretty (as is her sister Amanda but her sister isn't on this program and she is younger by a little more than 2 years) Ullman is seriously handsome and both make great pin-ups and for the teens to fawn and drool over and us adults can do the same with the parents! Anton is a handsome looking man but for me (being male) Simms is just SO pretty! What a shame I'm too old to have pin-ups on my wall! Lol. Ah well, such is life. You Must Watch This Programme! OOhh. I almost went without mentioning the last supporting cast member, from the and also directs some of the programmes. He is J-P Manoux and plays the part of Curtis, a stowaway from the Diffy's holiday and the part of the slightly effeminate Vice Principle Hackett (if there is a Vice Principle then surely there is a principle? Why do we not see him or her?) and does both wonderfully. We see a fair bit of Hackett and not enough of Curtis who is even more out of place than the Diffy's are in this time period and I'd like to see more of that explored and for both characters to get in total an equal amount of screen time as everyone else overall. Like I said before, YOU MUST WATCH THIS PROGRAMME as it is Superb! Don't just watch one or two and think oh, I don't like this. If you do that then you must keep watching it as it WILL grow on you! There will be those that like me, will watch just one programme and be instantly hooked! I give this a very deserved 10/10 as unfortunately not everything can be achieved in around half an hour! This program easily has the potential to get turned into a full-length feature film and I for one hope it does!

scissorhands__emily I love "Phil of the Future"! It is such a great Disney Channel Show. At first I was skeptical at the commercials thinking it would be just another dumb show, but I was really surprised. Once I started watching it I liked it more and more. It's pretty funny. I think it throws the jokes in at just the right time and I also think there are so many cute moments in this between Phil and Keely (I know, I'm a Pheely fan!). Pim is a really hilarious character and most of the words from her mouth are big laughs. I think all the acting is well done and that it is a good change from the usual shows because it's a completely different theme from everything else with the Diffy's coming from the future. This show seems to have a pretty good range in fans to. Older and younger kids can like this. Younger kids because it's funny and has all of these cool gadgets and older kids because of the great chemistry between Pheely and also the comedy. I'd definitely recommend this as I think it's the best show Disney Channel has right now (prefer this to Suite Life and Raven).

crusojalewhistef Remember watching the promos didn't think much about it. Seeing the name, thought what the heck is that? Phil doing his introduction talking about "threads", thought now here's a guy trying to be hip when he's obviously a loser. Being it so long ago, I don't remember what exactly my feelings were about the actual show but I'm pretty sure I was thinking it would have too much freaks for my tastes. whatever I was stupid back then, for crying out loud I did NOT even notice how cute Raviv Ullman was. I didn't really give it a chance.One day was bored thought it can't be too bad if shown couple eppys already. Future Jock. I wasn't really into POTF but meh, I get tired of the same stuff, why not watch something different? About 10min in: "I am definitely watching this, it's pretty good." few episodes later, I couldn't tear away then noticed how much of an adorable guy Raviv was. seems I like this show for Raviv but that's not the only reason. as days went by I grew to love the whole bit of POTF.Dunno what attracts me to this (besides Raviv) but IT'S AWESOME AND MY FAVORITE!!! I watch TV just for that. would be less confusing if u see more of promo but it's unnecessary. not what the show is really about. it's about a guy everyone thinks is an alienboy. trying to hide the fact that he's from the future. those of you who said special effects were annoying, they aren't really. If you really pay attention to the plot they won't be a problem. not too over-the-top to be distracting. cool. it shows true potential when a show doesn't rely on big budget effects. a show needs to be focused on the plot and that's exactly what this show does. Honestly, I love many of the characters. couldn't choose. Pim, sure she's annoying but supposed to be that way. she can't be more annoying than the younger siblings you have at home. she's not your typical annoying sister, she's annoyance TO THE HIGHEST and that's what makes her rock!!! so devious. I adore the whole part w/Pim vs. Debbie. so hilarious!!! course Debbie is too nice but it balances out when you have extremes. was sad to see her go but that's why they had new guest stars and they are pretty exciting people. besides it's good they are up to her level. Phil can be a jerk sometimes but inside he's a really good charming person. so lovable and it helps that he's cute. Keely may look ditsy but there's more to her that meets the eye,she's actually pretty smart. shes popular but that makes it all the more touching, her to like the "school freak" and get others to follow her. shows how society can grow. parents not as*flavorful* but what do u expect they're parents. dad funny and it's so nice to watch him mess it up, he thinks he knows it all. Mom bit perky that's cool. Mr Hackett is teacher,biggest loser yet but that's what makes him so hilarious. others don't have much to say about them, they're entertaining and different. Curtis I don't really like but the good thing is he's not shown often. I guess it kinda adds to theme, having a foreign character.All the gadgets are cool too. interesting to see what each thing does and if it messes up. All actors does exceptional playing their roles. Characters & situations excellent. series very original yet typical. I guess you could say it's typical situations and people done in an original way. this is good because you can relate these characters to your own life. You got the mom who always believes in doing the right thing, the goofy dad who thinks himself as "the big man", the sweet charming guy who doesn't fit in, ditzy blonde, snobby fashion diva wannabe, kid sister always thinking of a way to play a trick on someone, mathlete: Seth, guy w/cheesy pickup lines who thinks he's all that: Owen ( a lot of people like that), snobby evil cheerleader type: Candida and the hip kid: Lil' Danny. this show also contains lessons (e.g. get to know someone even though they're different they may be an incredible person {Future Tutor, Keely joining Phil}, put a limit on trust {Your Cheatin' Heart, Tanner}, the time when Pim and Phil help each other out shows you should always stick up for your family, overcome your fears {My Way}, don't get too cocky and try to handle things on your own {Double Trouble} and many more) that are hidden well enough not to focus on educational aspects and take the fun out. >I sure hope all us fans can save the show cuz television would be suffering a great loss! makes me crack up, romantic aspects, cutesy, kool (notice KOOL not cool) and touches my heart like you wouldn't believe. FOR ALL AGES. you want proof? I'm 18 and look how I feel about it. brings out the inner child. even my mom likes watching it w/me.*Yes I know I'm obsessed w/this show but how can you not be. I'm sure if given the chance you'd grow to like it (although maybe not as much as me) take my word for it, check it out. if you see the show in the way I do, it's sure to be a hit.
