Avis à la une
The storyline and plot in "The Last Laugh" was actually very enjoyable and it was really fitting for both Chevy Chase and Richard Dreyfuss to portray the characters in the movie, because they were so well-cast for the roles of Al Hart and Buddy Green.
There is a good amount of laughs throughout the movie, not that you'll be in cramps and have tears streaking down your cheeks, but the comedy is good and it is so well delivered by Chevy Chase and Richard Dreyfuss.
The characters in the movie were nicely portrayed and had lots of personalities, so it was characters that you quickly and easily relate to and take a liking to. It was also nice to see Andie MacDowell in the movie, and she definitely spiced up the movie with her performance.
I watched this solely because of Chevy Chase, but I must say that Richard Dreyfuss really surprised me with his performance in this movie, and he had such great chemistry with Chevy Chase on the screen.
"The Last Laugh" is the kind of feel-good and warm-hearted comedy that will sink right in and make you feel good. This is definitely a movie well worth taking the time to sit down and watch.
The story is engaging, the Jones are good and I line the characters in the film. Even though there's a sad subplot, the film still maintains a light atmosphere, with hope and friendship shining through. I enjoyed the film.
Richard Dreyfuss as others have mentioned, did very well as the comedian who gave up his career for his family... I thought the roles might be reversed as Chevy had more experience doing live comedy but instead he tried to rehash a version of his uptight Clark Griswold persona playing his agent and Andie McDowell was wasted as the love interest.
So bottom line, if you're looking for the next Kominsky Method or Grace and Frankie... you are probably better off moving on to the next on your queue.

- AnecdotesIn the scene at the comedy club in Lubbock Texas, when the old woman, Peaches Davis (II) throws the beer bottle (a rubber prop) at Richard Dreyfuss, on the 1st take the bottle struck Dreyfuss squarely in the crotch! The entire cast and crew, including Dreyfuss, was laughing so hard it was several minutes before shooting could resume.
- GaffesAbout 30 minutes into the film, the guys are driving to San Diego/Tijuana, however the Interstate sign shows they are on I-5 NORTH. To get to Tijuana, they need to be going south.
