Season 12, Episode 20
Here we are again, another episode where the critics get to rip into bad movies. This time it's the Worst Films of 1997 and those include: JUNGLE 2 JUNGLE, BAPS, THAT OLD FEELING, FATHERS DAY, YEAR OF THE HORSE, WILD AMERICA, BUDDY, U-TURN, MAD CITY, A THOUSAND ACRES, STARSHIP TROOPERS, ALIEN: RESURRECTION, THE JACKAL, THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO LITTLE, HOME ALONE 3 and FLUBBER. As you can tell, two Robin Williams movies made the list and as you'd expect there's a lot of back and forth between the critics as they discuss the worst movies they saw that year. These episodes were always very entertaining since the critics could really dig into these bad movies. The comments about Williams' acting style in FATHERS DAY was pretty funny as was Siskel's attack on HOME ALONE 3.

- ट्रिवियाWhen discussing Jungle 2 Jungle (1997), Siskel says that 'क्रोकोडाइल' डंडी (1986) was the right way to do a "fish out of water" story. However on Peggy Sue Got Married/That's Life/Crocodile Dundee/The Name of the Rose (1986), he and Ebert gave two thumbs down to the film as they thought it was too predictable. They maintained the same position on a re-review in The Mosquito Coast/Streets of Gold/Crocodile Dundee/Rate It X (1986).

Gene Siskel - Host: [reviewing "Jungle 2 Jungle"] The kid, played unctuously by Sam Huntington, is such a complete bore, that you wish he'd really go play in a dangerous neighborhood and get mugged.
Roger Ebert - Host: [chuckles] Oh no...
Gene Siskel - Host: Oh yes I did. Seeing this, and remembering the little, original "Little Indian, Big City", a surprise French hit, I'm even more impressed by the success of "Crocodile Dundee", which is an example of how this formula story can be done very well.
Roger Ebert - Host: I've been reconsidering my vote, Gene, and I REALLY WOULD rather see "Jungle 2 Jungle" again...
Gene Siskel - Host: No you wouldn't.
Roger Ebert - Host: ...Than see "Year of the Horse" again.
Gene Siskel - Host: You're lying.
[chuckles]
Roger Ebert - Host: Yes I would. Yes I would. Truth.
Gene Siskel - Host: I know what to get you for your birthday now.
