Review

Well, I saw this new Netflix original the other night; if I'm not mistaken, the third full-length Pee Wee Herman film, and the first one in 28 years (has it been THAT long??) since 1988's "Big Top Pee Wee".

For "Pee-wee's Big Holiday", our hero takes to the road to re-unite with, and attend the birthday party of his newly-formed friend, actor Joe Manganiello!-LOL- who has dared him to do something different, and be adventurous!

I must say, actor Paul Reubens has barely aged in 30 years!?? And it's interesting watching this movie with his history and acting credits since then. I see now he is reprising his role as Penguin's dad on TV's "Gotham". Very cool.

Well, I was surprised how much I enjoyed this- definitely liked it better than "Big Top Pee Wee" and his old TV show from the '80s, although the latter seemed to be geared more toward kids. Not sure I liked it as well as 1985's now classic "Pee Wee's Big Adventure", but this one definitely holds up to that film no doubt. Even though I liked this, I was a tad surprised it got as high of a meta-critic rating at IMDb as it did-??
