4.0 out of 5 starsWe got it all on UHF!
By Daniel J. Hamlow HALL OF FAME on February 20, 2005
Format: DVD
Weird Al Yankovic describes and sings about so many wacky, bizarre scenarios in his songs and videos, that one might think, "what would he be like in a feature film?" UHF answers that question, and despite this being his only starring role, Yankovic acquits himself pretty well in this quirky cult film from the 80's.

"Nobody here appreciates someone with a good imagination," says Yankovic's character

George Newman, a Walter Mitty-type daydreamer who keeps failing at job after job, much to the frustration of his girlfriend Teri. So when his Uncle Harvey decides to give him a chance to be the new station manager of the UHF station, Channel 62, George jumps at the chance by putting more live shows. After all, with his pop culture daydreams, he'd be a shoo-in, right? As he tells his skeptical friend Bob, "It's just like working in a fish-market. Except you don't have to clean and gut fish all day." Joining him is Pamela Finklestein, a frustrated secretary aspiring to be a reporter. George, being the nice guy that he is, makes her one, but her first broadcast, an interview with the mayor, is rudely sabotaged. A remark "broads don't belong in broadcasting," typifies the 80's style sexism. Also, one has to compete with the national news station, Channel 8, run by the very loathsome R.J. Fletcher, who doesn't have a single nice line in the entire film.

Things start to turn around when he hires janitor Stanley Spadowski, the tall, simple-minded, but eager guy who turns out to be a smashing good entertainer as he is a janitor-his Mop speech is just great. Because of Stanley Spadowski's Clubhouse, the ratings soar and before long Channel 62 is outdoing the national network affiliate Channel 8. Fletcher is far from pleased and sets out to sabotage Newman.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsa Satire still topical
By Bennet Pomerantz VINE VOICE on March 27, 2006
Format: DVD
Think Trashy tv..aliens...music videos...and satire of Television, you may think Saturday Night Live or Mad TV...Its not, Its UHF

UHF was done in 1989, long before cable was instilled in us. It was there In th main stream. Howevert under the Weird Al Yankovic's warped eyes, this satire poked fun and BAD TV and doesn't date itself.

Also in 1989, the stars of UHF were also semi-nobodies who later made it big in movies and TV. It was Weird Al's first and only starring role. The cast included such performers as Anthony Geary (in-between gigs at General Hospital), B-rated SF film star Kevin McCarthy (Invasion of the Body Snatchers), Comic Emo Phillips, Billy Barty, actor John Paragon ( who was the screen writer of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark), Michael Richards (before his turn as Kramer in TV Seinfeld), a pre Nanny Fran Drescher, Gedde Watanabe (16 Candles), and Saturday Night Live's Victoria Jackson

The satire boarders between silly and slapstick. The jokes come fast and many like in Naked Gun or Airplane. It parodies such things like Rambo, Gandhi, game shows, kiddie TV shows, music videos (with Al's Music for Nothing/jed Clampet music video in the film) and TV Network. It still seems semi fresh 18 years later

and for those DVD film fans. The DVD audio commentary has Weird Al, Director Jay Levey (who also is Al's manager), Emo Philips, Michael Richards and Victoria Jackson. There is a lot of deleted stuff Al said he had on a VHS tape in his gargage. Foe film fans, its nice

So get this satire, it don't date that much and its still is fun!

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat use of the DVD format.
By Matthew J. Smith on June 4, 2002
Format: DVD
Say whatever you like about the movie "UHF," which is, admittedly, slapsticky and unoriginal at times, but this DVD is great! Yankovic delivers brutally honest and hilariously funny critiques of deleted scenes and the movie itself through the running commentary feature. Hearing Al complain about unflattering shots of himself, mistakes in filming (a detached left arm turning into a right arm) beating a joke to death, low-budget special effects, bad acting, and making scenes unnessecarily long (ie the scene in the beginning with all the traffic signs) is incredibly amusing. There are also several amusing "easter eggs" hidden in the DVD menus and Al himself hams it up in the menus as well. Other features include the original UHF music video, a 1989 Behind the Scenes featurette, and selected deleted scenes. Oklahoma residents might especially appreciate the DVD for the explanation during the Commentary of where each scene was filmed in the Tulsa area. I highly recommend this DVD to all Weird Al fans. Even if you didn't like the movie (or especially if you don't), you will enjoy Al's criticism of it and the additional material.

4.0 out of 5 starsAVAILABLE AGAIN SOON! RE-RELEASE COMING.
By Stormsurger on December 12, 2001
Format: VHS Tape
Finally Weird Al has announced a Summer 2002 release of UHF on DVD and VHS. Don't waste (your money) buying a beat-up old copy because you can get a new one soon. The movie that put Michael Richards on the road to Kramer and is a genuine cult classic is funny and, as you'd expect, weird. You'll want to drink from the firehose before running off to Spatula City when you're through watching it. A Must See.!

4.0 out of 5 stars"Complainers? We don't need no stinkin' complainers!"
By EMAN NEP on March 7, 2001
Format: VHS Tape
How can you resist a movie where they throw poodles out of windows, let kids drink from fire hoses, where Conan hacks people apart because some people turned a book in late? The movie does have its slow parts, but the spoofs and skits are absolutely hilarious. I won't tell you all of them because then you won't go and rent or buy this great movie. This movie is really good if you are a Weird Al fan, like REALLY off-the-wall humor, parodies, something that can make you laugh. Some people hate this movie, but I think it's because they're trying to see it as a movie. UHF is not really trying to be a movie, it's trying to be more of a collage of parodies. Anyway, see it for yourself. There's no telling how many stomach muscles you'll burst watching this hilarious film.
