When Fred Flintstone (John Goodman) generously loans his pal Barney Rubble (Rick Moranis) enough money to adopt a child, Barney wants to return the favor. So he helps Fred on his IQ test at the quarry... which gets Fred an executive position. But what Fred doesn't know is he's the sap meant to take the fall for a bunch of corporate con-men out to rook the company. The all-star cast is rounded out by Elizabeth Perkins as Wilma Flintstone and Rosie O'Donnell as Betty Rubble, with special appearances by Halle Berry, Elizabeth Taylor, Jay Leno, and the B-52's.

Reviews for The Flintstones
It's just a series of nicely shot and over-bright sets with the cast blocking your view of the background.
So silly and sophomoric, despite a few amusing bits of business, that it is recommendable only for kids -- and curious Flintstones fanatics.
As asinine as Hollywood gets, only destined to see at least one sequel.
If you spend the whole running time picturing Halle Berry nude on a sabertooth-tiger rug, The Flintonstones isn't so bad.
