Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times In the midst of all of this, Dan Aykroyd enjoys himself and brings along a certain mad detachment that suggests he knows it's just a humble little screenplay, but he's amused by its pretension. Rated: 3/4 Oct 23, 2004 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Night Shift and Risky Business were both polished comic gems -- hilarious and clever in equal measure -- yet sandwiched between their releases was this like-minded effort that did NOT yield similar dividends. Rated: 2/4 Aug 29, 2021 Full Review Rob Vaux Mania.com I'll be honest: it plays a lot better when you're twelve. Rated: C- May 14, 2013 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Sep 25, 2005 Full Review Scott Weinberg DVDTalk.com There's no sense of momentum, structure, or escalating comedic craziness; it's is like a feature-length SNL skit, and it's the sort they'd air right before the end credits. Rated: 2/5 Sep 24, 2005 Full Review Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat Spirituality & Practice A sassy comic tale about transformation. Rated: 3/5 Aug 19, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews

Demented N Great cast 👏 Dan met his wife here and his best friend Fran. It could of been Better but still kinda fun for what it is that dance number with James Brown is just a classic. It's wasn't a cheep movie they had visions of a franchise after all naked (slap stick gun) had a few movies. Some of the costumes are fabulous of the various extras Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Too mother****ing nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Underrated movie. Young Dan and lots of fun stuff Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Sometimes Dan-Aykroyd-over-the-top works; sometimes not. This is an example of the latter. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member If your in the mood for a funny movie, this is the one to watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Mildly humorous, mostly annoying. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
