The long-haired rat dude was hilarious



At the first scene when he tries to get a cigarrete and had his hand stuck I couldnt help myself but burst on laughter everytime he'd say something.

Bruce Campbell was also VERY VERY funny here. Overall a weak movie but certainly made me a laugh a lot.... Like "I never seen you here before! I like that in a women.." hahahahah..


- He moves his lips when he reads. What does that tell you about him?

Agreed! Brion James just about makes the whole movie for me, it was awesome. If memory serves, that voice he used was improv'd when shooting began.

I always have to tell people that are going to see it for the first time that it is a "live-action cartoon" - and that seems to help set them up for the type of humor this is.

Yeah, he definitely had the funny voice going on but all his scenes were priceless. The hand getting crushed, the dogs attacking him, the two for one sale laugh, stuffing the guy into a Salvation Army donation slot, and his exchange with the captain of the elevator.
