An unemployed male stripper and certifiable slacker, Tommy Collins (Pauly Shore) ends up homeless when his mom throws him out of their trailer. Desperate for a place to stay, Collins figures that landing a spot on a jury should get him a roof over his head, food in his belly and a few bucks in his pocket. Shockingly, his plan works -- and he will do anything to delay the trial's verdict so he can keep living large and make his moves on knockout juror Monica (Tia Carrere).

The smartest thing going for this dumdum comedy is that it opens while the real-life jury in the O.J. Simpson murder trial appears to be self-combusting.

Chicago Sun-Times

[Shore's] appeal must be limited to people whose self-esteem and social skills are so damaged that they find humor, or at least relief, in at last encountering a movie character less successful than themselves.

Movies are dumb. Pauly Shore is dumber. I'd rather watch O.J.

It had a couple scenes that made me laugh and were good in their own rite, but it was too disjointed to be a good movie. Pauly Shore is an actor that is so bad, he's good. Even though it wasn't that good, it didn't deserve the 0% critic score. I'd give it a 35%. I'm not going to let myself watch it again though. EVER.

A stupid comedy, but it can be a fun time-waster if you're feeling like a 90s timewarp.

wasn't a very good movie, very childish for a PG-13, reminds me of Billie Madison, except inappropriate for kids. I thought some parts were funny like the little dog being a huge jeopardy fan. that had me laughing a few times. it had somewhat funny moments which reminded me of South Park which I liked. (ALOT of the jokes were childish though) definitely not a movie worth watching. Acting was mediocre.
