ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Gooddude If you wan to laugh your ass off this is the one! ranks right up there with Animal house and caddyshack. "is that for me Dad? no son, that's for me". classic line for Bo Derek! its a feel food buddy movie, with some timely one liners and plot twists. Brothers don't shake hands, brothers hug! If you were every in a sales job on the road, this will hit home. Chris was the next john Candy, taken before we could see all his genius.

Irishchatter I loved how Chris Farley (rip) played a clumsy fool to fall in love with. He even sang well with his on-screen father Brian Dennehy. Man, they should've had a band back then cause they pretty darn good singers! David Spade was also awesome in this. He's like this guy who pretends to be the serious guy at the beginning. However as you get use to him throughout the film, you would definitely think he's a natural comedian. He's never straight the way he talks. When he was drunk, it was hilarious that it peed my pants. Bravo Richard!I was so thrilled that they added in Dan Akroyd into this film. He has a perfect salesman voice. I wish he did ads like the ones he does on this. It would be better seeing him on TV adverts then seeing the same stupid ones nowadays. Plus he would be more famous then being an underrated actor.If you think this film wasn't funny, it wouldn't be normal....

brchthethird A fun (but only occasionally funny), dumb comedy. The plot is rather simple and unspectacular and the acting is serviceable. Chris Farley is really the only reason to see this movie, due to various comedic episodes peppered throughout the run time. He's able to elevate the material somewhat on his charm and charisma, even bringing a little heart/pathos to the role. You can't really say that for the rest of the movie, though, because it's filled with clichés, plot holes, lapses in logic and implausibilities. Still, the strong central performance by Farley, who proves himself quite adept at physical comedy, is reason enough to see it at least once.

Nicholas Westra Comedy is one of the most popular genres in the movie business. Many comedies are only good for a few half-hearted laughs. Others are good for a hearty chuckle, but lack a decent plot to make the movie memorable. A select few can connect to the audience with an engaging plot paired with hilarious jokes and lines that everyone will be saying for years to come. Tommy Boy is definitely in the latter of these categories.If an interesting plot is what you're looking for, Tommy Boy delivers. Tommy Callahan (Chris Farley), a fresh college grad, but also a dimwitted goof off, inherits his father's auto part business after his sudden death. His father was a smooth talking, legendary car parts salesman, and the business is in trouble after his death. Tommy must take over the business and is faced with something he's never had in his entire life, responsibility. He embarks on a trip to sell a new line of brake pads in order to save his business, and the jobs of all his workers. He experiences many obstacles and challenges along the way. This plot, paired with a mystery, a love story, and downright hilarious scenes, makes this movie one to remember.Backing up the plot, there is a cast of great actors, including the dynamic duo of Chris Farley and David Spade. These two actors make the movie what it is. The always loud and obnoxious Chris Farley is perfect for the part of Tommy, a loud-mouthed dimwitted fool. David spade is as sarcastic as ever in his portrayal of Richard, the sarcastic know-it-all who accompanies Tommy on the brake pad selling journey. These two very different characters' bickering and disagreements, paired with the ridiculous situations they find themselves, are the main source of humor in this movie.With Tommy and Richard's crazy situations, along with other hilarious moments involving the rest of the supporting cast, Tommy Boy has everything a movie needs to be considered a great comedy. Between the slapstick humor, the crazy situations, the foolish actions and statements of Tommy, the sarcastic retorts of Richard, and the memorable lines that will be repeated by everyone for years, there is hardly any room to stop laughing.Behind every great movie is a great director, and Tommy Boy has Peter Segal to back it up. Peter Segal has made many great comedies including The Longest Yard, 50 First Dates, and Anger Management. He by no means mars his reputation with this movie, but rather bolsters it. The movie is very well done and organized, and keeps the interest of the audience. Tommy Boy is perhaps the best and most memorable of his impressive list of comedies.Even with a great plot, and endless laughs, no movie can be perfect. Tommy Boy, like all comedies has jokes that are a bit over the top and some that fail to be funny. But all in all Tommy Boy is hilarious and a movie worth watching. It is most definitely deserving of a 9er out of 10.
