 Fun and clever December 18, 2008
Grimmy (MD USA)
A clever and funny romp about a detective who's suffering short-term memory loss. Carvey plays it well, and so does the dog. The premise has him trying to make sense of the urgent goings-on around him, and is used to great effect. Don't want to ruin the plot, so just go watch it!
Don't be discouraged by the three stars. I think I gave Saving Private Ryan four.
I like it September 12, 2008
Jer Bear (Ouachita National Forest, United States)
It's not screamingly funny, but unfortunately it is Dana's best solo starring movie to date.
Carvey and Golino work well together and create real characters out of a pretty one dimensional script. Plus, there's Kevin Pollack who's turned out to be far more talented as an actor than he ever was as a comedian and the ever exquisite Olivia D'Abo (Single Guy (TV), Point of No Return, many bad movies and cartoon voice overs.)
This seems like one of those vehicles that starts with a funny idea, but there isn't the writing talent or maybe just a lack of impetus to develop it fully. It's pretty much a one trick pony.
Robert King needed a writing committee like the writers for the Simpsons to take a basically funny concept and add joke after joke until there was really something there like they did with Groundhog Day.
I saw Pre-SNL Dana live (late '85 or early '86) so I know what it's like to laugh so hard you can't hear all the jokes or breath for that matter. His talent is incredible, but he hasn't has the best of luck in films.
This one isn't terrible, but it will never be on anyone's top ten list either.
(I actually gave 3 stars but I can't figure out how to change it.)
Pretty funny September 10, 2008
RABID-WORM (indiana)
I have to say when it comes to Dana Carvey, this is one of his funniest. the dog in the movie is actually more of the highlight. A blind dog that has issues of his own, and is quite enjoyable to watch. I believe that children would enjoy this movie as well. (Mainly because there is no nudity :( and the language is pretty calm.) i would actually rate this at 3 1/2 stars, but still a fun one to check out.
Unfortunate choice for Dana Carvey, just not the best July 2, 2007
Wiseguy 945 (Omaha, NE)
I remember when this came out, I was excited because Dana Carvey had just left Saturday night live to venture into movies, and Who would have guessed that his carear whould have been so short. unfortunately, his characters and impersonations never translated into box office money. This movie doesn't even try and take advantage of any of his impersonations etc, and is just not funny. We start the film with him waking up and a tape recorder that just fills us in to his amnesia. And then the movie disintigrates from there. Not funny, at times hard to follow, and way cheesy unbelieveable. But, it was before momento and 50 first dates, so you can say that at least some other films got a chance to do it better. Anyway, worth a laugh or to, a trip down SNL memory lane, but not a great collection builder.
 This movie is awesome March 1, 2006
