everything you have heard about this movie is true.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

It is a funny thing.... I didn't want to watch this movie, because I don't really care for Bob Saget. However, I do like Brian Bonsall. So I went ahead and watched it. I found it pretty good, despite Bob Saget. In fact, I rather enjoyed Bob's acting in it. He fit the part perfect. I guess I should overlook Bob's stupid acting in America's Funniest Home Video's. So if you want to watch a pretty funny movie, with a good story line, this movie will do just fine..... :)

I happened to pick this film up at my local Blockbuster one weekend and was surprised because it was not bad. The story involves a paranoid author named Spenser Paley (Bob Saget, who I believe filmed this in his second to last season of "Full House".) Saget has not been spending to much time with his son (Brian Bosnall, form Family Ties. When Bosnall gets invited to go on a camping trip with his school Saget does nothing but ruin it by complaining. His companion is Stuart Pankin (who played the sheriff in Arachnophbia.) His enemy is David Graf (Who played Sam in The Brady Bunch Movie.) I loved Bob Saget growing up on Full House so it is not too surprising I enjoyed it. I will warn you however there are many corny jokes and if you are not a Saget fan stay away from it. Otherwise enjoy the show! Rated PG for some vulgarity and violence.

Brian Bonsall is a smart actor, but that's that. I have seen this one a few years ago. I remember it having been a more or less average movie. The story was basically good, but the actual transformation on screen was fairly simple and did not match the quality I look for in father-son stories, which belong to my favorites in general. Brian was still decent; he made me watch through the whole movie. I wonder if they could have made a better movie if they'd cast a different guy as his dad. This part was thoroughly miscast. Bob Saget did not fit in here at all, he hampered the advance of the movie's storyline and screwed up the emotional aspect that was subtly addressed.

How you'd come across this tomato can I don't know. I was coerced into taping it because "the kids would like it." Guess what? They didn't. Unless you really like Bob Saget there will be essentially nothing in this turkey for you.
