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 cast were great, the plot was well meaning with a warm and fuzzy feeling.
The only thing that really lowers the score for this movie is how a LOT/MOST of the scenes are just mashed together and it really makes the story look messy, sometimes actors deliver a line in such a way that you can tell they simply cut a 3 minute scene down to 44 seconds. That's all though.
All in all, it's a nice and easy to watch movie, just try and forgive the bad editing and you'll be fine
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.

- QuizIn 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.
- BlooperAbout 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.

Buddy Green: Last time that my wife got frisky, we're in bed and she starts stroking my chest and my stomach. Then she slid her hand lower under my ass, and all of a sudden she stops. I'm like why are you stopping? And she says, I found the remote.
