Every couple years this movie comes to mind and I visit the IMDb page for it, just to enjoy the fact that there is a small number of people who remember it and enjoy it for what it is -- a brainless, vulgar comedy that hits the bullseye time and again.I wonder how much film wound up on the cutting room floor, because at 88 minutes the box office version of the film is tight and unrelenting. I suspect there were some scenes filmed that just didn't stack up, so full credit to whoever edited this down. I can guarantee the best bits made it into the final cut. At no point does the movie hit a lull. Also not mentioned often is that the truncated soundtrack is pretty decent for such a low-budget entry.And by best bits, I mean some of the funniest comedy of the 80s. Michael O'Keefe's character gets embroiled in a love story (which fortunately never detracts from the humor of the film) leaving Paul Rodriguez to provide rapid fire comedy, and boy does he deliver. The movie bounces from classic scene to classic scene, with Rodriguez getting most of the great lines, delivered in an arch manner that prevents the viewer from disliking him or thinking him obnoxious. For me, the comparisons to Dumb and Dumber are off the mark, as neither of the two principal characters in this movie are portrayed as idiots. Because of that it's a bit more challenging to wring laughs from them but the script successfully answers that challenge. There's plenty of broad humor, but it's backed up by snappy dialogue.I don't suppose this will ever get its due, but if you've just seen this for the first time, welcome to the club. There are some more of us out here that got it too.
Excellent low grade humor in abundance. Hilarious movie with many memorable quotes... I still remember a few after seeing this over 12 years ago...Barnie Caught shaving with a car mirror in the hotel pool Manager:"Are you people guests here?" Barnie:"POTENTIAL Guests? YES!" HAHAHA"Rock Me Amadeus!" not even gonna explain that one... HAHAH!!!"Is that mean old lady squeezing your genitals?""I wanted to thank you for only giving me the clap. These days it's refreshing to meet a girl with curable diseases.""No! We no see Fluffy! What your dog look like? Your dog have big, juicy hind leg?"Paul Rodriguez Rocks. That is all.
