I love Martin Short but this is the most boring and horrible movie he ever did, and Hollywood ever released. No wonder it took them so long to release it, Martin was probably hoping to get to the moon be it did. It rates right up there with Moment by Moment. Barf, I had to walk out, and never regretted it.
shareYeah. The movie does require of its audience a certain amount of imagination and abstract thought. It's not surprising that there are many people who can't grasp it.
shareFirst saw it when I was about 10 - the "What do you want be when you grow up?" "A dinosaur" sort of stuck as a favourite line, used to use it to get my parents worked up. Watched it again at 18 (finally understood the perverse bits) and still enjoyed it. You can't qualify a movie in absolute terms. Different folks, different strokes. @the guy who said it's just a plain bad movie.
shareDid you actually see "Moment by Moment"? I rather liked it, but I can't defend it as a good movie.
As for this, it's grating and mediocre at best, but I've seen far worse films, both Hollywoods and independents. 4/10 stars from me.
Yep - more creepy and weird than funny.
This was one my my family's favorite comedies when I was little. I thought was a classic when I was little but now to see it bombed horribly and has a very low rating is kind of sad. sure I may not call it a "great" film. but it is really funny.
shareit's a classic.
