Comedy is the order of the day in this decent film starring the Fat Boys who are hired as incompetent orderlies to speed the demise of an indebted man's wealthy, but ailing, uncle. I did appreciate the cameo of Cheap Trick's Rick Neilson.

Watched this when I was younger, and thought I'd revisit it again, bad mistake. The movie is pretty bad. The Fat Boys have a certain charm...but not enough to carry an entire film. Was funny watching Ralph Bellamy in a film for the 2nd time in less than a week(also in "Trading Places".) Skip it!

I saw it in the theaters back in '87. 25 years later, it still makes me laugh!
