Disappointing Farley vehicle. Not much humor, and the action isn't much.

Chris Farley may not have been the world's most versatile comedian, but he sure as heck deserved better material than THIS!

Farley, a real lightweight compared to such late, great predecessors John Belushi and John Candy, brings none of Belushi's edgy intelligence, nor Candy's gentle pathos to this comic caricature.

A satisfying and sturdy vehicle for Farley that ought to please his fans, youngsters especially.
