Bar Hopping

Where was the real hopping from bar to bar. There were very few jumps. I liked the conversations that were going on between the people. Also Tom Arnold being the bar tender is great at story telling about your average bar goer. I was not quite pleased with the end b/c it just didn't fit in with what was going on previously. All in all this was an okay film. Not as bad as some I have seen.

What do you do when late one night while channel hopping you see your life (okay past life as in the 80's) on the TV before you? This movie was based on the good old days of the Improv. I can say it made better memories than a movie but I knew every one on screen. Steve that was a trip down memory lane that we all could have missed! Sorry still luv ya D

A friend of mine rented this movie, and I have to admit, I thought it would be good. It has Kevin Nealon and John Henson, so it should be funny, right?

NO! This movie sucked! Let's set up the movie: It's a bunch of characters on a Saturday night at different bars. Simple enough, but the movie never finishes some of their stories! This one character goes to a bar with her boyfriend and his 9 cousins...and it never tells you what happens!

Also, what is the deal with cutting to the bartender (Tom Arnold) who is narrating? His narration was utterly pointless! It shouldn't even had been in the movie. Then sometimes, this one woman looks at the camera and narrates! She wasn't even a main character, and she only does that two times the entire movie during the few scenes she was in! I must also bring up Sally Kellerman in the tub. At that point, I wasn't paying attention, but I saw some old man, fully clothed, get into the tub with her. Who the hell knows?

The only bright spots in this entire movie were Kevin Nealon and Nicole Sullivan. He played his depressed character well. I only liked Nicole's performance because she kissed another woman. Even THAT wasn't enough to save this stinker. Do yourself a favor and don't rent it. If you do rent it, do me a favor and light yourself on fire.

This film essentially begins with a young woman by the name of "Lara" (Linda Favila) crying to her friend "Mara" (Nicole Sullivan) about a recent breakup with her boyfriend "Roger" (John Henson). Although Mara is quite sympathetic to her friend's emotional state of mind, as it so happens, it's also during this time that she gets a phone call from another friend named "Kyra" (Romy Walthall) who is also experiencing a similar problem. Eventually, one thing leads to another, and both Lara and Mara decide to go to a local bar to hang out and possibly meet other men. Likewise, Kyra also decides to go bar hopping in the hope that she will meet her former boyfriend "Damien" (Scott Baio) as well. What none of them realize, however, is that this late-night excursion won't necessarily turn out the way any of them could envision. Now, although the synopsis of the film made it seem like it might be quite entertaining, it never came close to meeting that standard. Not by a long shot. The writing was terrible, the characters were all unlikeable, and most of the dialogue consisted of one random comment after another which never really amounted to much of anything. In short, this was an incredibly boring movie, and I have rated it accordingly.

Occasionally funny but generally boring. I did recognize Robert Hegyes from Welcome back Carter (aka Epstein) as the ex-celebrity criminal. There is a knee slapping, gut busting scene with the French lady having a bad reaction to American food. S. Baio, S. Kellerman, and Tom Arnold are billed but have only minor roles. You never get to know the characters and it's hard to care what happens to them. Not recommended.
