Was Captain O'Connell really a bad guy? What was the song that was playing when they arrived at the keg party? Did anyone find the burglary scene jarring and uncomfortable to watch? Why was the caretaker so afraid and intimidated by Mr. Potter? AJ McLean also appeared on the first season of Nickelodeon Guts. I can't believe this film only has a 5.2 rating! Would they make shows like this today? Watched this film for the first time in approximately 25 years I sometimes wonder what Kevin's life at school is like? Why didn't Kate get upset with Frank when he wouldn't let Kevin and Fuller watch the movie? View all posts >

I agree 1996 was the last truly great year for Nickelodeon, I feel 1997-2001 were still watchable but you could feel the downhill slide coming. Another show of that era I feel that got overlooked was Taina, that was an early 2000's show that lasted for two seasons. The scene with the truck driver playing the bumper cars on the bridge while trying to get on out of there. Yes as I was watching the NBA Finals during that time, I was like "WTF" as I have never heard of OJ Simpson since I was approaching the 8th grade at that time period. While I don't rank it among one of John Candy's very best films I still enjoyed watching it as I thought he and Eugene Levy were great together as the security guards. I give this film an 8/10 I thought what went wrong with the film was Richard Pryor being wasted as Gus, I feel most of the scenes he was in were forgettable, I also thought the villains weren't as memorable here as they were in the first two movies. Or impatient with going over certain things. I agree that was very low and disrespectful of Pamela having sex with the wolf when she already had a boyfriend, if I were Mick and saw Pamela dating Scott I would dump her. I agree the father didn't seem to be all that loving towards Dennis and seemed to have more of a no nonsense vibe in him than the cartoon, the comics and the 60's TV series. Another reason why I favor the third film over the second film is because I hated the scenes where there were tensions between Carrie and the Bandit. I love it as I love the police chases, the feelgood vibe and the banterings of the characters. View all replies >
