HOOPTOBER 11 DAY 26 5 DAYS REMAIN TITLE 15 OF 39

This was a very nice surprise! Zucker-style comedies aren't as prevalent as they should be in this world. The bag of jokes get old about halfway through but bless this film for continuing to throw every single thing at the wall to try and get some kind of laugh from you. There are a couple gags I'll probably think about from this (the seeing-eye dog parking its owners car terribly into a handicap spot and the psychiatrist getting up from his desk), leading me to burst out laughing in public while everyone nearby will wonder what my problem is -- which of course is that I'm a hopeless wreck who continues to watch movies and/or write about them despite seeing some perfectly good ones I could have stopped at least a thousand movies ago (I'm currently at 3,750 on my LB profile at the time of posting this review). It's no AIRPLANE!, but it's something I would gladly put on rotation in between the NAKED GUNs, TOP SECRET!s, and HOT SHOTS!s.
