Crazy Legs

Ran across Off the Mark by mistake while looking up something else so i looked it up on IMDb and based on all the great write-ups decided to track down a new VHS copy(there is no DVD). I Have to say all the positive reviews were right on,this is a very funny obscure 80's film.It's a silly film with not a whole lot of plot and the comedy is indeed in the Airplane style of rapid fire sight and word gags.While its not as awesome as Airplane (what is???) it is much better than most of the wannabe's that came after it.There are some clever gags that are executed well and the writing is pretty good.The actors all do a nice job,especially Clarence Gilyard and Shep the dog.Gotta love Shep! A young Terry Ferrell looks awesome in her skimpy outfits,i had forgotten how good looking she was.After almost an hour,i was wondering why in the world this movie was rated R.There was no Nudity,Violence or bad language-a solid PG-and then all of the sudden...out of nowhere came an awesome (*but short*) girls locker room scene with loads of nice bare breasts.Still not really worth an R. Get this movie,you'll love it. Zep

Have any of you ever thought... I can make a cool comedy after seeing some great one like airplane or naked gun (pretty much anything with Leslie Neilson in it). If I made a comedy, i think it'd be just like this. Any opportunity this film gets to poke fun... it does, & does well. This said, unlike many comedies, it holds its plot well (which incidentially revolves around the breasts of the lead guys girlfriend, not that there's anything wrong with this), and has a few classic lines. My favourite involved the alcoholic coach and the so called '6 pack'. This film is great. if you ever see it, snap it up & you won't regret it.

He had a short but very appealing part in Hollywood Shuffle, and he was in this as Jesus but we could only see him for a brief second from the back. I think that is all the movies he made. Mr. Blackschmidt, I don't know what happened to you, but if you are reading this, I hope you have had a good life.

What a hidden gem. I mean I knew nothing about this movie and most have never heard of it but damnit this was hilarious. Lead by a stellar 1980's cast these characters were some of the best. Crazy legs I mean come on what a genius idea for a comedy. So many funny scenes my favorite being the locker room scene in the third act. This movie here holds up against some of the best in the 1980's. It's nice to see familiar faces like Barry Corbin Terry Farrell Clarence Gilyard jr Jon cypher Virginia caper's just to name a few. Brett Baxter known from bachelor party has a funny cameo in here as well. I highly recommend this movie. Tim Treakle.

I was browsing in the video shop with some friends when one of us came across this movie. It was called "Crazylegs", which you have to agree, is a much better name than "Off The Mark". The cover of the video was so enchanting that we snapped it up there and then and rushed home to watch it. Displaying all the hallmarks of classic '86 humour, and the acting to go with it, this is a fun movie with a touching storyline. An extremely underrated movie with heart.
