Dated perhaps but still a good comedy

OK this is not a movie that was going to win an oscar, but it has a good cast and story and will make you smile and laugh.
In today's world CGI films it is good to know you do not always need CGI to make a good comedy.

Great Classic!

I've always loved this movie, an 80's classic. I'm so happy to add it to my DVD collection. It's one of the funniest movies ever, and not vulgar.

Simply silly!

A film I saw years ago and it made me laugh a lot at the time. Maybe I've grown older and wiser since then, but it is still a good bit of clean fun and entertainment, and at the price you certainly go wrong!

I haven't even met the doctor yet....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 December 2013

Clifford Skridlow teaches at a small Chicago college run by his father.

Conned into managing four prostitutes by their pimp, who skips town to escape the mob boss known as Mom, Clifford draws on his course in medieval literature in his quest to save the women from Mom....

Made on the success of The Blues Brothers, and in some respects, a kind of tribute to Mr Belushi, DD is an odd little film, and to think that the makers thought this would have been a box office smash.

The problem lies within the writing. It's too immature for adult audiences, but too adult orientated for children. If it was about a toy maker coming up with ideas that a rival maker steals, this would have been a bonafide classic, but as soon as pimps are involved, it just goes to pot, and the sincerity of it all just goes away.

Not to say that it isn't fun though. Aykroyd is wonderful as the smutty Bruce Wayne, and you can hear Coneheads whenever he turns into the titular character, and its as predictable as you could imagine.

Hilarious confrontations between street people and the upper classes, and the. Out random appearance from James Brown.

Its nothing special, but I'm an aficionado of the eighties, and until last week I'd never heard of this.

If you like this era, it's well worth watching, its fun, has a great soundtrack, but maybe just a little too leftfield for its time...

War ja nicht schwer! Ist ein Kultfilm!
Dan Akroyd spielt so genial.
Hatte den Film früher schon oft gesehen und finde ihn immer noch gut!
Allein James Brown mit seinem Auftritt ist sehenswert
