Just a funny laid back movie. Greatest ever? Nah but well worth your time
Unique, unforgettable, must-watch with your friends
Good 80s SCTV movie. Rick Moranis is a global treasure.
another plot conveniently solved by someone’s inflation kink
Silly and fun. I don’t remember much about the plot but I remember some quotes. Really funny.
The beer hosing bros from sctv were given a movie, got drunk for most of it, and the rest is hamlet, but the surreal skit vibe translates.
Silly and dumb but charming. Only a hoser would disagree.
Some funny moments and has a good cast. The plots paper thin and there doesn’t seem to be enough to justify it being a film
The Canadian version of Dumb and Dumber... classic
Not sure these characters were strong enough to warrant a full movie but it was good for a few late night laughs
