Steve D 02/22/2023 Fails to work as a comedy or anything else it tries to be, See more 01/04/2015 I watched this movie many years ago, and it is STILL one of my top 10 favorite comedies. Laugh-out-loud funny. I loved the "outlandish" plot-it's creative and different; the relationship that develops between O'Hara and one of the criminals is romantic,touching and well-acted; See more 12/13/2011 It has it's moments, but they are few and among the average gags and characters. See more 10/14/2011 I was surpriced, it was actually more funny than I thought it would be. Not the BIG comedy movie, but alright if you wanna see a light movie with some funny scenes. Jeff Daniels is superb, but I also like Jonathan Banks and Rhea Perlman in their small roles. See more 06/16/2011 Hilarious. Don't know who came up with this storyline of digging for money in the basement of a house in a nosy neighborhood, but it's great! See more 01/16/2009 This movie, albeit cheesy, shouldn't be relegated to the depths of trash-dom. Poignant one liners, exploitative stereotypes, and a cohesive story line (points in the beginning have relevance in the end) make it worth viewing when the cheesy slapstick mood strikes.
