3/4

In the midst of all of this, Dan Aykroyd enjoys himself and brings along a certain mad detachment that suggests he knows it's just a humble little screenplay, but he's amused by its pretension.

...a meandering, curiously low-rent endeavor that contains few elements designed to capture and sustain the viewer’s interest...

Night Shift and Risky Business were both polished comic gems -- hilarious and clever in equal measure -- yet sandwiched between their releases was this like-minded effort that did NOT yield similar dividends.

I'll be honest: it plays a lot better when you're twelve.

There's no sense of momentum, structure, or escalating comedic craziness; it's is like a feature-length SNL skit, and it's the sort they'd air right before the end credits.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Great cast 👏 Dan met his wife here and his best friend Fran. It could of been Better but still kinda fun for what it is that dance number with James Brown is just a classic. It's wasn't a cheep movie they had visions of a franchise after all naked (slap stick gun) had a few movies. Some of the costumes are fabulous of the various extras
