Nothing But
Trouble PG 13
Dan Ackroyd directs one of the
single most disappointing original SNL players movies ever made, and some might
argue, the worst acutally. The aging cast, in 1991, play gross out versions of
themselves going to a town of nastypeople, Valkenvalia, where insane monsters
run rampant, and they have a funhouse that grinds people down to their bones.
Lovely. Trying for straight up in your face 90s humor, they all fall flat, and
do terrible performances, especially Chevy Chase and Ackroyd. John Candy is
just sad. This is a terrible movie, but at the time, it was hyped in every
major magazine as being a scifi comedy horror thriller. Yeah right. If only
they got Mel Brooks to come in and rewrite the script, and direct it. Then it
would have worked. But no. It seems full of itself too much for that. Review by Adam Browne
