Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Dinkles the Polynigmion I just found this on Netflix, and so my brother and I watched it. We didn't regret it. Kel Mitchell played his character very well, and I always loved "I'm a dude, he's a dude..." and "Welcome to Good Burger, home of the..." and Kenan Thompson did good with Dexter, he actually did look like a high-schooler back then. The story wasn't rushed at all, it played out well. The characters were spot on. The humor was too hard to resist, it was so good! I found myself laughing at the jokes. This movie is just too good to say no to, it's that awesome. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie. It's on Netflix, so if you've finished catching up with Stranger Things, go watch this. You won't regret a thing!
FlashCallahan Before you see this film, you need to realise that the makers didn't make it for it's narrative or plot arcs, this was literally made to cash in on the Keenan n' Kel brand, and the studios were hoping that they could garner some sort of franchise from the two.Doesn't everyone know that T.V duos do not translate well to the big screen? Dexter is forced to get a summer job at Good Burger after causing damage to his teachers car.Things turn for the worse when Mondo Burger, a lucrative fast-food chain opens across the street, almost guaranteeing Good Burgers closure.Now it is up to Dexter and his friend Ed to save the day.A secret sauce that Ed created brings hundreds of new customers to their door and makes the competition desperate to steal the recipe......I'm not the demographic for this film, it's cookie cutter, by the numbers stuff, but my nine year old daughter lapped it up.The two leads are likable enough, doing the same performance they do on their insufferable T.V show, it's just here the budget is bigger and the jokes are more elaborate.Just as you'd predict, the company gets threatened, somebody saves the day, the evil company gets wind of their new found fame and try to destroy their reputation.Do they win and save the day?...........Don't make me laugh.Not as terrible as I remember, but like the fast food the titular chain is selling, it leaves a terrible after taste.Somebody should tell Ant and Dec before they get the same ide.......Oh....
steveh46 Yes, I said great movie. Kenan and Kel are the Laurel and Hardy of the 90s. I wish they'd done more movies.This actually was the best movie I saw in 1997. Any movie with Abe Vigoda playing the world's oldest fast food worker has to be good. Besides that the musical scene set in the insane asylum, with Mr. George (P-Funk) Clinton himself leading line dancing mental patients, is classic.Yes, it's silly. Yes, it's frequently stupid. But it is funny. Your kids will like it too. "I'm a dude. He's a dude. She's a dude. 'Cause we're all dudes."
Grarcmandu The cast of "All That" returns for good humor in the "Good Burger" a place similar to an old fashioned fast food restaurant. The comedy is terrific, the fun is non-stop, and though cliché, is a passer for kid and family comedy.A movie for all ages, this movie is meant to enjoy, laugh, and pretty much a lazy movie for a rainy day, as that's what I'd save this movie for, a rainy day. USA aired it today, and since I know that the cast of "All That" is in it, I thought that it might be a bit of a chuckle burner, but in good fun, as Keenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell (probably one of the best young duos of that time) were terrific together, the pieces came together, and everything worked out, and it made it into good family fun together with some lazy day work to get off the bad day.May I take your order?
