Editorial Review:
A devil-may-care test pilot volunteers to be shrunk and injected in to a rabbit as part of a top secret experiment. When industrial spies steal one of the two microchips needed to reverse the process, the pilot is accidentally injected into the body of a timid supermarket clerk. the two, along with the pilot's girlfriend, have 24 hours to find the stolen microchip before the pilot uses up his oxygen supply.
Description of Innerspace:
Distractingly loose but clever, this 1987 comedy by Joe Dante (Gremlins, Matinee) stars Martin Short as a hypochondriac and Dennis Quaid as a miniaturized test pilot who is accidentally injected into him. Taking a page or two (or a hundred) from the classic science fiction movie Fantastic Voyage, Innerspace details the adventures of traveling through the human body's complicated systems, though in this case, it proves an unusual way for two characters to forge a bond. Dante's endless imagination goes into overdrive here, but the film is more gimmick than anything else and ultimately feels a bit hollow. Fans of Short or Quaid might like it more than most, though Dante's hardcore fans will also appreciate seeing his stock players Dick Miller and Kevin McCarthy. --Tom Keogh
Innerspace Reviews:
re customer service 
2009-12-09 - The movie is fun, family oriented. The copy I received had several minutes of sound missing. Seller promised a replacement, but 6 weeks later have not received it.
INNERSPACE
2009-10-09 - FUN COMEDY. GOT LOTS OF BELLY LAUGHS OUT OF THIS, AND IT STILL HAD SOME MORE SERIOUS PARTS TO THE MOVIE AS WELL. GREAT ACTING.
Hilarious movie.
2009-08-23 - Innerspace
I picked this up because my four year old son likes the movie. I like the way the inside of the human body has been pictured(some issues exist, blood flow). He and I watch this often. I would not care much for the story It is the usual run of the mill comedy except the way the inside of the human body is pictured.
Silly & Fun, But Not A Kids' Film
2009-02-24 - This is an updated "Fantastic Voyage" and interestingly done, I thought. Joe Dante directed a number of fun movies to watch during the `80s and `90s.
It's not the innocent Steven Spielberg "E.T."-like movie I expected because of the language and several sex jokes. In other words, this is not a kids' movie.
Dennis Quaid stars and plays his usual cocky self. (He's mellowed in recent years.) Meg Ryan is her usual cute-but-of-little-substance self and Martin Short is just plain funny - the best guy in the movie.
The film offers a good combination of humor and science-fiction suspense. It's a fun movie.
Childish, underdeveloped, high-concept 1980s comedy 
2009-02-13 - "Innerspace" is a high-concept 1980s comedy - a man and his craft are miniaturised for scientific purposes - needless to say things go wrong.
Sadly the many ideas in the film are under-developed and it operates at the most juvenile level. Meg Ryan lights up the film but Martin Short and Dennis Quaid are pretty lightweight. Also it's just not very funny. May appeal to young children. "Fantastic Voyage" it aint.
