Great for family entertainment

I remember that we had this movie on VHS and that I really liked watching it when I was younger. I remember it being very entertaining at the time.

Sinbad stars as a con artist who is trying to hide from some mobsters. In an airport he gets mistakenly befriended by a geek lawyer who thinks he's a long lost childhood friend. He becomes a house guest and makes himself comfortable in the lawyer's home and really gets to know his family and neighbors.

This movie is very funny and well suited to watch with your family, I know I loved to watch it back then.

Trivia
John Candy was the first choice to play Kevin Franklin, but he died before filming began.

Goofs
When Kevin and Gary are cooking burgers at the end of the movie, they flip half cooked patties, put cheese on them, and as the camera is panning away, they are flipping them again. Nobody flips patties once the cheese is on them.

Quotes
[after stumbling on Jason's skateboard]
Gary Young: Jason, how many times have I told you to pick that damn thing up? A lot, I think. Probably several, maybe.

Crazy credits
Sinbad and Phil Hartman sing several food-themed parodies over the closing credits with music and a chorus in the background. Phil Hartman uses the name "Sinbad" during them instead of either of his character's names from the movie.
