I watched this comedy sketch movie few months ago, and I have already forgotten most of it, except two bits that I think I'll remember forever: movie critic reviewing a life of a guy who is watching him on TV, and Don "No Soul" Simmons or blacks without soul.

Sparsely amusing but cute sketch/vignette film that hasn't dated too well. The movie is about as funny as an average episode of SNL, and not actually comparable to, say, a Zucker/Abrahams film. It does have some nice moments, but at the most it elicits smiles rather than laughter.

Eh, it plaes in comparison to Kentucky Fried Movie, but I'll still watch it and laugh. It does have Andrew Dice Clay at his height, among a few other notables.

The Arsenio Hall bit is funny, the first time. Some of these skits really suck arse, but they bounce back and forth enough to entertain you. Definite rental.

Great parodic movie on the less pretty sides of the American Society in general and more precise the movie and tv industry in the States, showing an average tv evening in an American household. Fantastic humour with a twist, great sketches with renowned actors in some pretty embarassing roles (Guttenberg, Pfeiffer ...).

Almost so bad that's it's good - the kind of movie you like but feel guilty about it. Be sure to see the skit that is AFTER the end credits! Grab the beer & popcorn and get ready for some big laughs!

Not on the same level as Airplane! or Spaceballs, but there's still good material here. Some of the gags fall pretty flat, and the titular segment is never nearly as funny on purpose as the films it spoofs were unintentionally. There's a lesson to be learned, though: the funniest parodies are the ones played completely straight. Don "No Soul" Simmons is probably my favorite bit.

This scattershot anthology, much in the manner of Landis's earlier _Kentucky Fried Movie_, has more hits than misses and is a lot of fun. Best segments: on-target B&W spoofs of _The Invisible Man_ and old sex education films; a day in the life of playmate Gabrielle; the title parody of sci-fi cheapies like _Queen of Outer Space_; and all the abuse heaped upon poor Arsenio. Better than you'd think.

Movie in episodes with John Landis and Joe Dante in command and a bunch of stars, a comedy nonsense and even politically incorrect at times, but I dont laughs, only a few smiles.

Some great moments (the Arsenio Hall opening sequence and the Loch Ness Monster skit) are dragged down by some horrible ones (the funeral parlor abomination). And then there's Ed Begley's butt. Well, you decide.

One of those schlocky movies that works, which are sadly not made anymore.

Such a waste of what could have been a great sci-fi film with pointless [lack of] comedy thrown in.

There were a number of these sketch-spoof films in the 80s, and this was one of the higher-profile ones; that doesn't make it good. A very lame script by Michael Barrie and Jim Mulholland keeps a fine cast from arousing many laughs (the best sketch, a 30s VD-film parody with Carrie Fisher and Paul Bartel, comes in the middle of the credits); a few good jokes here and there don't overcome the general shittiness, and the ultimate feeling is one of much wasted opportunity.

Like any sketch film, this is hit or miss. A few really funny scenes, like the invisible man bit, but for every one of those there are two or three unfunny ones. At least someone was giving Russ Meyer some work . . .

Landis and Weiss clearly improved since the Kentucky Fried Movie. This film has more of a thematic through-line, dealing with issues of privacy and identity. It still needs more gags, though. Most of the jokes (and haircuts) feel depressingly dated now. The funeral scene feels creepy like a Verhoeven movie, watching people laugh at things they shouldn't. But I loved the Forrest J. Ackerman and Russ Meyer cameos and the reuse of the costumes from Forbidden Planet.

Several skit's connected with a late night television old movie theme. Some sketches were amusing, but overall it was slow.

An early sign that Dante and Landis were losing their mojo, especially Landis. It's essentially a glossier, less anarchic version of The Kentucky Fried Movie, only with a noticeably more imbalanced hit-to-miss joke ratio and less cultural relevance. Not being American, this viewer struggles to understand how this nails its respective time period, and the 50's spoof elements were surely tired in 1987 and feature a conspicuous lack of commentary, clever or otherwise.

Watchable but forgetable comedy sketch anthology movie. Best sketch was Son of the Invisible Man, which is hilarious and perfectly mimics the style of the Universal movies
