![]() ![]() In the end it really does feel like the two leads were simply thrown together for a fast money spinner off the back of a much better earlier comedy. I can't complain too much because this is obviously a dumb comedy, its not suppose to be anything else, but even so it feels very cheap and half hearted. There is a lot of lame filler which really has nothing to do with the plot, its just there to try and gain a laugh whilst padding out the film, or so it seems.Įven as a Farley fan I found it hard to enjoy this, there really doesn't seem to be any point to Farley and Spade being together here and half of what happens is irrelevant. There are whole segments in the film where nothing really happens, the sequence where the pair find a bat in their wood cabin and spend almost ten minutes of the film dealing with it. ![]() The laughs are few and far between and what we do get is light at best. I also like how he tends to play the everyday man, regular Joe's, makes you connect with him that bit more.ĭespite liking Farley this film does feel very forced with very little to show. I have said before and I'll say again I do like his antics, he is a funny fella and his films are nice feel good films where you can forget about any troubles you have. Although some supposed the cause was a new disease, suspicion soon fell on the kea. Sheep suffering from unusual wounds on their sides or loins were noticed by the mid-1860s, within a decade of sheep farmers moving into the high country. Same old Farley I'm afraid which isn't too bad if you like the guy. The controversy about whether the kea preys on sheep is long-running. This of course puts his brothers campaign in jeopardy of which his rival tries to take full advantage of. As you can guess Farley's character is a clumsy embarrassment to his brother (played by Tim Matheson) and inadvertently causes all manner of horrendous goofs whilst in the public eye. The idea isn't too bad, its all about a political campaign battle between the brother of Farley's character and the wholesome all American 'Evelyn Tracy' played by Christine Ebersole. Saying 'a car is driving' is the opposite of what I wrote. It is not used for carts, wagons, cars, bicycles, or anything else with wheels. I have read that 'Paramount' just wanted to team Spade and Farley together again asap, so we have this blunt comedy. Another meaning of 'run' means 'travel rapidly on 2 feet or 4 feet'. Made simply because 'Tommy Boy' was an unexpected success, clearly somewhat rushed and not fully thought through. ![]()
