"Madhouse" has non-stop laughs.

John Larroquette, Kirstie Alley, and Dennis Miller star in this incredibly hilarious film. Mark and Jessie Bannister (John Larroquette and Kirstie Alley) have the perfect marriage, a nice house and wonderful jobs. When long-lost relatives Fred and Bernice show up uninvited everything starts to fall apart. Soon they have about 8 guests in their house and have nowhere to go. Then they decide to get even. Filled with a tremendous amount of humor, "Madhouse" is a great comedy that is worth watching again and again.

Mediocre

Madhouse is a movie that you will watch one time and be through with it. Yes, parts of it are very funny, but over all, it is not such a great movie.

Mark and Jessie Bannister are a couple that buy a new home. They have great jobs, loving marriage, and are successful. When relatives come to visit, it all changes from there. Pretty soon there are over eight houseguests and Mark and Jesse's life get turned upside down.

If you want to see this movie, see it on t.v., don't rent it. 4/10

Excellent feel-good screwball comedy which will leave you smiling!

MADHOUSE, in my opinion, is an excellent feel-good screwball comedy which will leave you smiling! If I had to deal with a bunch of uninvited guests the way that Mark (John Larroquette) and Jessie (Kirstie Alley) did, I would go just as crazy as they did. Still, I say it's always a good idea to be a good Samaritan. Last night, before I had to leave to go somewhere, I watched half of this, and this morning, I watched the whole thing, and I must say that I really enjoyed it. I even purchased it last night. Anyway, if you want to know what kind of mayhem ensues, see the movie for yourself. I guarantee you that you will have a smile on your face afterward.

Not the worst thing ever

This is one of those late 80's comedies with low stakes, minor stars, and a few laughs. It's even got an animated opening credits. It doesn't aim high, but there's a few good bits so it's not a total waste of time. Don't get me wrong, this ain't shakespeare, but it's a pleasant enough diversion if you like the era.

This movie sucked

This movie sucked really bad, not only was John L's acting pretty amateur and stiff, it was quite obvious that Dennis Miller belongs on a prime time talk show. None of it was funny, and the cat bit was really cheap. The ending was predictable, and the plot was a little shaky, some kids smuggling dope by using John L's office? Yeah right... not now, and not even then (1990) folks... the only part i like is the parts where they interview people on the street, but even that kind of sucked because the "Question Girl" played by that chick who was in that movie with john travolta, her acting was worse than John L's, my rating, a 0 out of 10

Wissenswertes
John Larroquette was approached for this film while working on the sixth season of "Night Court", but the show's executive producer would not allow Larroquette the time off to make the film. Because of delays in the film, Larroquette was approached again during the seventh season of Night Court. This time, the show's producer and the film's producers worked out a schedule that would allow Larroquette to work on both projects simultaneously. Mondays to Thursdays, Larroquette would rehearse for the series during the day and work on the film all night. On Friday nights, the series would tape their episodes. As soon as taping finished, he would go to the film's set and work all weekend.

Alternative Versionen
