A comedy classic, Hanks and Aykroyd are great
May 20, 2008
Most of the time it's fresh, funny, and surprising.
May 20, 2008
Aykroyd's script has more than its share of clever, witty ideas, but the film still feels the need to descend way too often to Police Academy-style heroes-dress-up-like-idiots sequences.
May 24, 2006
Annoying comedy.
May 20, 2008
More innocuous than inventive.
May 20, 2003
Mr. Aykroyd and Mr. Hanks play well together, but the funniest performance in the film is that of Dabney Coleman, as the smut king (who lisps).
June 22, 2004
Strident pop-culture revisionism.
January 01, 2000
The script is a gold mine of one-liners.
January 01, 2000
Yes, it is lowbrow and sophomoric. What you'd call dumb-de-dumb-dumb fun.
