Directed by Troy Miller (Jack Frost), this is a disappointing comic attempt to update Johann David Wyss's famous novel, The Swiss Family Robinson. Dyan Cannon stars as a TV cook who finds it hard to ditch her Los Angeles comforts when her clan's South Seas vacation goes badly wrong. Her young co-star, Sarah Michelle Gellar, was about to shoot to fame playing the title role in the hit TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Dim-witted, ponderously performed slapstick featuring a comedian of very limited appeal.
Alot of great faces in this film and surprisingly Chris rock shows up here in his earlier days (pre-7-figure sum salary), and the comical timing in this movie constantly stays perfect just right to catch you at the end of your last laugh and throw you into your next fit. Defniatley a great film.
This is probably the best Chris Farley film EVER, and Chris Rock, though a small part, is just as hilarious. Two great SNLs get together to make this GREAT movie. Well worth seeing
