...reprise of her real-life cross-racial relationship with Ted Danson, Whoopi Goldberg stars "Corrina, Corrina" as the yin to Ray Liotta's yang. As the ever-helpful, racially suppressed and mischievous maid Corrina (pronounced Core-ee-na), Goldberg delivers what is a lackluster performance...
...they're playing Tar Wars. People talk about spending a relaxing week in Rocapulco. Puns may be the lowest form of humor, but in this movie such wordplay is the only possible accompaniment for the pictureplay that runs throughout this merry story of "a modern Stone Age fam-il-ee": newspapers carved in stone; cars powered by feet; prehistoric creatures employed as primitive, parodic versions of contemporary labor-saving devices (dinosaurs are adapted to be lawn mowers, garbage disposals, even a bowling-alley pinsetter). Yes, it's business as it usually was on the old animated TV show. But nothing...

Later, with only the clothes on their backs, they fled across...
...days before the trial begins, tourists are making the curious trek to Waco, as they have steadily since the nightmarish days. They don't see much out on EE Road: piles of broken beams and concrete, the husks of two old cars and a trailer, and the Silver Streak Express -- Koresh's bus, which somehow survived the flames and which security guards use as a warming hut -- are about all that remains of the compound. A broken high chair and rusted toys lying in the gray earth provide reminders of the young dead...
Meanwhile word quickly spread through the compound that "the Assyrians are coming." Koresh garbed himself in black and grabbed an AR-15 rifle. By the time the 91 ATF agents pulled up Double EE Ranch Road, most adults inside the compound were armed. Brandishing a search warrant, an ATF agent approached the open front door. By the ATF's account, a man slammed the door and gunfire erupted from within. Koresh's attorney counters that ATF agents fired first. Either way, the cult's barrage of automatic fire so overwhelmed ATF agents that some never got off a shot...
