      Steve D Fails to work as a comedy or anything else it tries to be, Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member 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; Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member It has it's moments, but they are few and among the average gags and characters. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member 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! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
