      Grant W Very funny yet old really good Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Garbage like this used to populate my film-watching days as a child. Why would I allow these things to happen? Because I was a dumb kid. Having seen it again, now, as an older person, I have to say that - while garbage - I can understand one thing about why I let myself see it so many times: stupid is as stupid watches. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member haven't seen it for many, many years - but thought it used to be funny... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Nothing special, but still a fun find for those willing to just watch a silly movie and swallow the fact it stars Howie Mandel. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Such an oldie but was a good movie back then. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member love this movie to funny, a must see Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
