0ur opinion:Description:John Lithgow takes adventure to new heights in this big-laughs, big-hearted, big-footed comedy for the whole family! A chance car accident introduces the Hendersons to the real-life Bigfoot, who is anything but a ferocious monster and quickly becomes a true friend to the family. They're soon in a race against the clock to return 'Harry' to his natural environment before the authorities capture him. The fur will fly in this feel-good romp - an 0scar winner for Best Makeup - the whole family will enjoy again and again!
:This cute movie by William Dear stars John Lithgow as a family man who befriends a Sasquatch (a.k.a. Bigfoot) and brings the friendly monster's oversized, hairy self into his Seattle home. Mayhem and comedy ensue, but things take a heavier turn when a hunter (David Suchet) gets on the creature's trail. Everything hinges on the relationship between Lithgow's character and Harry (the Sasquatch), and that relationship is really quite effective and touching. Don Ameche is a hoot as an old guy who has dreamed of meeting Bigfoot all his life and finally gets the glorious chance.

Harry is a good hearted family film
This is one of many movies made during a time when Hollywood was trying to make some family friendly movies. Movies like Beethoven, Honey l Shrunk the kids, Little monsters, batteries not included, etc. They were all for the most part successful in there purpose, to create family entertainment.
For some reason Harry and the Hendersons has kind of fallen through the cracks and is not talked about in the same conversation with the others, and for the life of me l don't know why. lt really is a good movie.
John Lithgow plays the father in this film and does a good job. Up to this point in his career he was mostly the bad guy,(raising cain, ricochet, cliffhanger, Santa Clause), so to see him as a good father in a comedic role is refreshing. He does a great job. Later you see him really use that part of his acting spectrum in the TV series, 3rd Rock from the Sun, but this is where it all begins for Lithgow.
0rene Anderson is very funny, and Don Ameche plays a great supporting role.
F0r the families looking for a good dvd to watch together you for sure want to pick this up.
**there might be a few scenes that are a little scary for toddlers***
