    Storyline

    Edit
    Winslow needs money now to pay off gambling debts. If only his rich uncle Albert would die. But his orderlies are very good. Maybe by hiring three of the worst orderlies around, he can speed things up. Fortunately for him, he finds Markie, Buffy, and Kool, who have just been fired from their last job. With them around, he should have the money real soon. —Brian W Martz <B.Martz@Genie.com>

    • Goofs
      At one point the medicine machine goes off alerting the Fat Boys that it's time for Albert's medication. The time on it reads 8:15. Later that evening when Albert's in bed, the camera pans to a clock that reads just a few minutes after 8:00.
    • Quotes

      [Kool, Buffy, and Markie sneak back into the house and quietly get Albert in his all terrain wheelchair suddenly the lights come on followed by Chauncey giving two growling barks. Everyone's standing there and Kool, Buffy, and Mark realize they've been caught]

      Winslow Lowry: You've ruined my plans for the evening.

      [after a second's pause]

      Winslow Lowry: Listen, from now on I want Albert at home. Where he belongs. Where he's safe. Where he's loved.

      Albert Dennison: Chill out, Winslow. We just went to an all night drug store to get some medicine. And it worked.

    • Crazy credits
      During the end credits, The Fat Boys try to spell out "Disorderlies" across their t-shirts by standing together but can't get it in the right order.

    Stupid movie, great soundtrack
    This is one of those stupid movies with great soundtracks. The plot is weak... the characterisation is all but non-existent (this is what happens when one tries to teach rappers to act).

    The soundtrack is about the only thing that makes this film worthwhile; check out the great Bananarama number "I Heard a Rumour". The Fat Boys are fine when they are in their element -- rapping. They contribute two passable numbers -- "Baby, You're a Rich Man" and "Wipeout".

    Thank goodness Anne Dudley has moved on to better things ... like winning an Oscar for scoring "The Full Monty".
