5.0 out of 5 stars Richard Pryor's best movie ever, why isn't it on DVD?, October 24, 2004
By Sandy (Ohio) - See all my reviews
Richard Pryor, Randy Quiad, and Dana Carvey together, what more could you ask for. This is by far one of the funniest movies ever made. We play this VHS so much, that it is wearin'out. I am patiently,no desparately, waiting for the DVD to come out.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this movie!, November 19, 2002
By Sergio Morales (Levittown, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Now, keep in mind, I'm giving "moving" 5 stars because it's just one of those movies you can watch when you're so bored you don't think anything in the world can make you unbored, this movie is just so genuinly entertaining in its own unique way.
Moving stars Pryor as an engineer who was fired and needs to move from Jersey to Idaho for his new job. The troubles he goes through during this process are reminicent of the National Lampoon Vacation movies.
The first half of the movie most people won't find very amusing, just because the comedy seems really an aquired taste, those in tastes of something goofy and who like listening to Pryor complain, I find it hilarious. The second half of the film become really funny because of the movers Pryor hires to do the job are just such horrible workers and hearing Pryors compaints and seeing the looks on his face are just hysterical.
Overall, the movie is very cute and just plain old fashioned funny. It's an original idea that I haven't seen in any other movie. My only gripe is that I wish it would've been longer, maybe make the movers do other crazy stuff to Richard, he's just so funny to listen to.

(REAL NAME)   
With vhs tapes being phased out, it's a shame that a movie that
was as fun to watch as this one was is not out on dvd.
