    This poor man's imitation of a Jim Carrey movie is weak on all fronts. Marlon Wayans stars as a student so desperate to get a junior analyst's job that he agrees to take a sense-enhancing potion. Inevitably, this lends him super senses that soon spiral out of control. Both Wayans and love interest Tamara Taylor are bearable, and Rip Torn is more than adequate in yet another corporate role, but Matthew Lillard is sorely misused in a subplot of zero consequence. This one isn't worth the eyestrain.

    Wacky 90's Fun

    It's ur typical 90's comedy with the briloant Marlon Wayans and Matthew Lillard. oh and David Spade is in it to. This film is one for the Sunday afternoons at home looking for some comedy action.

    It's ur basic wacky comedy where loads of things go wrong and it all turns out ok in the end. loads of laughs along the way.

    Would recommened this film if u r looking for a really silly film, where u can sit back and watch it without actually thinking about what u r watching. Kids will probably love it! (if their allow to watch it)
