Highly Overrated But Still Good

If you're in the mood of dumb, silly, funny and old school comedy type of feeling watch it. Good stuff

Good god. What was Dana Carvey thinking? This film is truly terrible in almost every way. It makes you cringe so hard that one would be embarrassed for even thinking this film was any good. The jokes that they try to tell in this movie just aren't funny and fall flat on their faces. The story is awful too. It's a long, yet tedious plot that could have easily been displayed in like 10 minutes instead of this hour and a half like this film. And the reason why is because of all the times they try to be funny to increase play time. It's painful how badly the characters try to make this film funny and fail miserably. Not one time in this movie did I smile a little. The only time is when it finally ended. I can't recommend this to anyone. In fact, I think I recommend it more if you just stay away from this film altogether. Because all this movie is is a cringe-inducing, painfully unfunny freak show that would only impress the most forgiving viewers. While the rest see this film the way it is. Awful.

I think this is the only movie that I've ever walked out on. It was just dreadful! A sad case of where the trailers for the movie were actually better than the movie itself. It wasn't funny in the slightest. My buddy and I gave it an hour in the hope it would get better - and as the saying goes, that's an hour of my life that I won't get back. I do have great admiration for Dana Carvey as a comedian, but not in this movie!! I can't believe he didn't realize how bad it was when reading the script. Avoid this one like the plague. Wish I could say it had a redeeming feature, but it doesn't. And judging by the other IMDb reviews, I'm by no means the only person who thinks this was total rubbish!

This is the perfect film for an eight year old boy. It's a little crude, but not overly so. It has some physical humor and sight gags that almost everybody will find amusing. It is a just a little over 80 minutes long, another plus. It's not like you are investing "Lawrence of Arabia" like time into this. It has some mild comic violence, think Three Stooges for level of violence and then crank it back a little bit. This movie suffers from what several movies made by refugees from Saturday Night Live have suffered from - it is incredibly difficult to make a full length motion picture out of a three minute skit. Dana Carvey does over the top caricatures familiar to anyone who watched SNL when Carvey was in the cast. I watched this film several years ago and thought it was pretty dumb. I watched it again with my eight year old grandson and his appreciation of it made me rethink my opinion a bit. It is not a "date night" film, for sure, but if you are a babysitter of boys 6-10 years old this will hold their attention and make them laugh.
