The Wrong Guys is just a fun movie. If you like slapstick, wrye humor and an improbable plot, this movie is for you. The cast of comics do their signature things and bring it all of seamlessly. It is a humorous look at the journey from boyhood to adult and back again.

If you like comedies, you will love this! Louie Anderson is too funny, in fact the whole cast will crack you up! The casting of the particular actor/comedians for the various roles was perfect!A good comedy for the whole family!

When I first sat in front of the Tv to watch this, it was on a cable station and I just happend upon it by mistake. However, it turned out it was far from a mistake!! If your looking for a good laugh and a good, clean fun movie, than this is what your looking for. It's slapstick at it's best when these 5 friends reunite after years of seperation and pick up where they left off as kids. AS they set off on their final camping trip to redeem their last chance for a cub scout badge they missed out on as kids, they run in to a wild ride as they encounter an escaped convict on their travels and they are mistaken for FBI agents on his pursuit and hijinks ensue. The combination of comedic star power is wonderful....they compliment each other and feed off of one another to creat a hilarious movie. Not everyone would agree with me but this has to be one of my top 10 all time favorites for comedy.

this movie will leave you in stitches. anderson, belzer, lewis, ajaye, thomerson and goodman give great peformances in this campy movie about a cub scout reunion hike on whitehead mountain, who are being pursued by a convict who think they're fbi, and two bullys who want to get back at them for throwing them out of the pack. this movie never made to theaters, but a must see for fans of these guys.

I thought this was a funny movie. It shows that Boy Scouts, or in this case Cub Scouts makes a difference in people's lives. All these men want to do is go back to their childhood lives and earn the most precident badge. It gives hopes to the old "foggy's" of today's generation. Other than the "violence" and some "language", this is a great older family movie and for the Scouts.

I only saw one bad online review of this picture. All I have to say about this is,LIGHTEN UP!!!! From a bona fide film buff sometimes you just accept some movies as guilty pleasures, I mean after all it's all about escapism & entertainment!!!!

First saw this movie when my children were very young...my son loved it and always referred to it as "The Cub Scout Movie." We had an old VHS copy for years, and finally found this one in DVD format---we simply HAD to have it. This is a great movie for all Cub scouters (or former Cub scouts), Den leaders, mom's of cub scouts or girls who's brothers were Cub Scouts---it'll make ya laugh for sure! The humor is silly, and clean, and reminds us all of goofy days from our youth. The comic cast helps make this movie funny, and enjoyable, but Louie Anderson and Richard Lewis steal the show with hilarious one liners! If you grew up during the late 50's or early 60's, you'll remember many things they do and say in this movie....but even if you grew up later, "The Wrong Guys" will send you laughing down memory lane!

Ok, this may be a few years old, but still funny. It catches the comedians in their prime being who they are. John Goodman adds his role perfectly. I enjoyed it!

Hi, movie fans! If you like movies, watch this hilarious comedy! It stars Louie Anderson (of TV's Family Feud), and is about 5 guys who were cub scouts as kids that meet again for the 1st time since then, and go on a camping trip, chased by two men who were cub scouts along with 'em who steal their engine and 1 thinks it is just SMALL!, 3 killers (the leader played by John Goodman) who think they are the FBI, and a SQUIRREL, with lots of laughs along the way. The 5 stars names in the movie are all the same as their names in real life, and these guys were not the wrong guys, but the RIGHT guys to make this film a GREAT comedy! Filmed in 1987 and released in early 1988, this movie was very underrated. It was poor at the box office, but is very rich with me! Get it! It'll be rich with you 2!

I recently purchased this movie because I remember watching it years ago when it first came out on VHS. Had some of my favorite comedians in it. I remembered it being hysterical but after viewing it recently, it didn't seem to have the comical effect of years gone by. Still a funny movie.
