A highly underrated film that is filled with Pryor's subtle brand of caustic humor.
If you have never seen this rent it tonight! Possibly Pryor's Citizen Kane.
Yes, I said it! This film may be slow in the script dept. but follow Pryor's every move and you will laugh your a$# off!! Garret Morris and Randall "Tex" Cobb are highlites to watch for. Bob Saget gets a nod for showing up.
Thanks Richard, you made us laugh, and did so admirably. You will not be missed, thanks to reruns and DVD's.
