Mindless fun, 29 November 2003
Author: Tom Fox from Cleveland, OH

Very enjoyable movie about a family guaranteed to make yours look more appealing.

Reminds us all why the 1970's should never be repeated.

Several memorable lines from an outstanding cast.

Underappreciated movie that deserves more recognition, highly recommend viewing for some adult humor.
