    So dumb and forgettable, but I love it.

    This is one of the best movies of the 80's if your looking for a stupid laugh.

    Classic.

    Great teaming of Ritter and Belushi in a truly funny film. This is a film that I am surprised is quite forgotten, even as a late night cable film, since it shows both leads at their best. And check out the picture of Jim Belushi on this Flixster page. The guy has not aged well...( read more) at all. (if I wanted to be in really poor taste I would say he aged better than Ritter, but I won't)

    A highly-underrated comedy with some awesome high-jinks, some Cold War absurdity, and the most awesome index finger in the universe. I don't care what Shoe says, this movie is hilarious. And still way better than Tropic Thunder.

  • November 24, 2007
    Classic comedy. As stupid as it seems now, back then it was worth for a good laugh!
