    Brilliant John Candy comedy

    The best scene in the film has to be when John Candy first enters his boss's office. The beauty salon is a great movie moment, and the end Drag Queen scene would put the late Divine to shame!

    bad, baby, bad

    having watched this, up to the point - about midway through - where i could take no more, it occurred to me that there should be a new category for films qualifying for a recommended age group. Ergo, if a movie is rated suitable for over 15s, why not have one suitable only for under 5s. This wretched example of puerile and juvenile humour would definitely be one of them.
