Pêche Party

We watched this film a year or show ago and again this week. I found it as funny now as I did when I first watched it. Good, clean family entertainment. Joe & Danny player two loveable characters in the film and their Aim, to get away and have a days fishing, is one that many could relate to. I find their loyalty to each other even when things reach rock bottom refreshing. There are moments in the film that are hilarious, especially when Joe gets hit by lighting for, for the third time in his life. What are the chances of that??? Overall a thoroughly funny and very enjoyable film just ensure you leave your brain at the door and enjoy it.

i don't know why people are talking smack about this film. It's funny and stupid at the same time. Joe Pesci and Danny Glover are going fishing before the Thanksgiving holidays and everything turns into a disaster. It's just funny.

Ok, why's this film get a bad rap? I saw it and enjoyed it thoroughly. Not very often in these days do you get a film like this. It's a comedy without poop jokes, sexual innuendo or foul language. And you know what? It's truly funny. The innocents Joe Pesci and Danny Glover project, mixed with the wacky situations they get mixed up in, is truly hilarious. Not only did I find this film a laugh filled feel-good comedy, but its one of the few comedies of the 90's that I would feel OK about my little brother watching it with me.

There is nothing bad about this film. Sure; the script is silly, and the plot is inane, but the movie itself projects an innocent fun that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Sure, if you're looking for a comedy akin to American Pie or Something About Marry, you won't find anything to your liking here. However, if you want a clean fun comedy with wacky antics and a good fun plot, this will work great.

This was "Dumb and Dumber" without the crudeness and profanity. That doesn't mean it's an award winner: it's pretty stupid, but it is refreshing to see a movie in which both Joe Pesci and Danny Glover star and never utter a profane word! Unbelievable! And you can add Rosanna Arquett to that list, too, and she wasn't exactly Mother Teresa in a lot of films.

The professional critics totally lambasted this film, which wasn't altogether fair, either. It is refreshing in its innocence (something critics know nothing about) and it has its funny moments. Best of all it's entertaining. Yes, this is "Lightweight" with a capital "L" but I've seen a whole lot of films that were the opposite and total garbage. At least you watch this with your kids and have some laughs. What's wrong with that?

Hi; I enjoyed this movie (more than the crap on the tube this season); I even "suspended disbelief" once or twice. This might not be the best showcase for any of the main actors talents. We know what is about to happen at every turn, and yet this film feels as comfortable as a well worn pair of shoes, the ones that you only wear to cut the grass or do your bar-B-Quing, the ones that despite your wife's protestations, remain hidden away, awaiting that next perfect summers day.

Nice endearing characters, some good ol' fashioned slapstick, a few good laughs and Willie Nelson; what could be better.

Don't expect much, just make some popcorn, sit back and enjoy the film.
