The dive at the end is worth 3 stars alone. And oh, Rodney Dangerfield is dead-sexy.
Hilarious 80s screwball comedy that would never get made today. Rodney Dangerfield is a genius who would get CANCELLED for every joke!
Classic Dangerfield. One of his better films. Love it.
Is it good, no not really, is Dangerfield hilarious? Yes of course
One of Rodney’s classic movies. Some great laughs from a great comic
This movie has not stood the test of time
Pretty funny. If you like Rodney Dangerfield, you'll like this.
I love his standup but could barely finish this, maybe just not for me
It's basically just Rodney Dangerfield going from one joke to the next with not much of a plot in between. It somehow works though.
Such a funny movie of its time and definitely rewatchable for sure!
