Special Delivery

I will admit that I did not make it to the end of this. I got about 70% through. But that's only because my 12-year-old lost interest and did not want to finish it -- which says a lot. If you want to watch a movie that is clean (no profanity, off-color humor) and will satisfy a 4-year-old with a few pratfalls and will give some simplistic messages, then this movie is fine. Otherwise, this should never be shown on TV again. The humor is terrible. Any attempt at comedy must be accompanied by the "comedy" music, otherwise the viewer won't get the joke. Just terrible plot, acting, humor, even for a made-for-TV movie. The lead role is just executed poorly. It's not as easy as it looks to play the part of a bumbling idiot (done well in e.g. Dumb-and-Dumber and the original Pink Panthers). The number of high reviews here makes me question the reviewers' intelligence or bias.

This is a B-movie,but I must say,it`s one of the best movies I`ve ever seen!It`s really touching,and cute.And the fact that it stars Andy Dick is so cool! I`ve always loved Andy Dick (ever since I was NINE!)And I think his performance in 'Special Delivery' was his BEST EVER,especially because he`s usually in more "mature" comedies,but this is a family movie with a wonderful story...I was very,very impressed!

Andy Dick made the most of his trip into low budget made-for-cable land. This was a role that many actors would have embarrassingly sleep-walked through, the kind of role that your average 90's sitcom star on the skids would have done for the paycheck - which I'm sure Dick did. But, instead of giving a half-hearted performance, he really made the most of a hokey script about a delivery man for an adoption service that loses the recipient family's baby. I found myself watching the whole thing despite my better objections. Funny guy. With all the talk of his past addiction problems, I hope he doesn't go the Robert Downey Jr. route. Hopefully he won't be stuck in made-for-cable land for long.

God forbid should you ever see this movie!

Its that bad.

The concept, the story could have been good, but 'thanks' to the idiotic, dumber-than-dumb-beyond-any-imagination Lloyd's main character this flick is totally indigestible. I guarantee you'll puke all over your TV screen within first 5 minutes watching Andy Dick as Lloyd. Seeing lots of bad flicks before (I actually enjoy many cheesy, low-budget TV comedies) I swear I have NOT seen worse acting nor more unbelievably stupid character!

Give yourself a favor and STARE AT THE WALL OR CEILING for 90 minutes instead of seeing this flick, it'll probably be more entertaining than this.

PS: Fiona, you don't need to register few times just to repeat how much you like it, or to give my opinion negative mark again and again :) We do get it - you really love this flick ;)

My family and I really enjoyed this movie. It is clean, funny and also adds to the Christmas spirit. This is the type of wholesome, family entertainment that is sorely lacking nowadays. I am sure that this movie would be a hit with the "G" and "PG" crowd. We want so much to have a copy of this. We plan on making it a tradition in our home once we obtain a copy. We also wish to send our kids (and grandkids) copies as well. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who misses a simple plot that evolves into a heart-tugging experience. I am surprised it hasn't been marketed because there are so many movies available in the on-line/commercial market these days and a large share of what's available is trash compared to this movie.
