santafe j In spite of a great cast of comedy veterans, this was truly embarrassing. Having watched on television for free, I was almost outraged so many "names" could produce such drivel. If I had paid to watch in a theater, I would have seriously considered asking for my money back. Korman and Conway are hilarious on The Carol Burnett Show. But I guess I have underestimated the contribution that show's writers make. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Classic Tim Conway comedy, but this time with a believable plot... This movie will surprise you. Its well written and well acted, and the jokes hit their mark. Tim Conway has redeemed himself after dropping a bomb in 1978's slapstick silly "They went that a way.." Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member "Hey, you got a nipple."-Lou (Harvey Korman) In utter words: a sucker. From witty to goofy, this comedy is strong, like stag. Huge fan of Pual Bartel. "What would you rather have, two good beers or four cheap ones and spend the whole night taking a leak?"-Dooley (Tim Conway) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Incredibly witty. Hilarious one-liners. Instant classic. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member old school and hilarious Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the stupidestly funny films you'll ever see! Hilarious scene after hilarious scene of laugh-out loud nonsense! You'll be unable to stop quoting dialogue for years afterwards! You have been warned :-) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
