Plot: Three brothers (Nicolas Cage, Jon Lovitz, Dana Carvey) with a streak of lawbreaking in them head to a small town in Pennsylvania called Paradise, intending to rob a ripe bank there. But the people in ...( read more read more... )the community turn out to be so nice that the thought of ripping them off proves difficult to imagine. The three leads each get to do their uniquely comic shticks, and that makes this film marginally watchable. But the pace is enervating and the story's main idea isn't all that well developed. --Tom Keogh

    In the movie, they showed that tabloid paper of the "Bat child found in cave." I remember seeing that paper in the grocery store a few years back. Oh yeah... this movie sucked.

    An amiable comedy, authentically funny & watchable. The pg-13 rating seems a little harsh. I think the mpaa needs to grow a pair, get their priorities straight, & start bitching at the right ppl for the right reasons.

    I thought this movie was gonna be so good because I loved Dana Carvey, Jon Lovitz was entertaining and Nicolas Cage was supposed to be a great actor. But I remember not laughing. And that's no good for a comedy for a comedy in my proverbial book. Boo.

    I really liked this movie and I had never even heard of it before. It's got its moral and pretty fun story line. I would give it a solid 4, but Dana Carvey's voice for this movie got on my last nerve.

    Meh. While Nicolas Cage gives a solid performance but the rest of the film is pretty lifeless, overlong and dull. Jon Lovitz and Dana Carvey are both annoying in their roles and the script is flatly written. There are occasional funny moments but they are few and far between.

    This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I love the line, "We're not really that attracted to eachother." It's classic and I almost peed my pants from laughing so hard. 5 thumbs up!

    Everyone should watch this movie. It was one of my favorites growing up. If your an SNL fan you need to watch this if you haven't already. Carvey and Lovitz are hysterical.

    Not very good, but it was shot in a tiny village near my home town, and my parents saw Dana Carvey at the mall once, so it has special meaning to my childhood.

    For a Christmas movie this is really good. Don't be fooled by it being in the 6.88 bin at wal mart it's actually pretty funny and lacking in the cheese. John Lovitz and Dana Carvey are actually really good in this.
