User Review
Better than people give credit for...
Rating:
This isn't Airplane!, The Man With Two Brains, , or any number of classic
slapsticks, but it is up there, and it is funny. While it has its slow
times, it still manages to make you laugh. Great one liners, and
wonderful
acting make it a solid and worthy buy. Everytime you watch it, you will
find yet another smart-ass, sarcastic reply, an offbeat joke or an
obscure
parody. Loaded Weapon 1 hits and for 90% of the time doesn't miss. It
honestly doesn't get enough credit.
