When Charlie was on SNL he 'apologized' for Men at Work. That and some reviews led me to think this was a disaster of a bad movie.
For me, it was a very fun way to pass the time. This is not laugh-out-loud funny, but the (few, subtle, stupid, recycled) jokes in this movie do work. Some smart movie references here, too.
If you like Charlie Sheen and/or Emilio Estevez (the movie's writer and director), check this one out.
BTW, the actor brothers are clearly having fun, and one performance in particular, by the main 'villain', John Getz, manages to be somber, and yet hilariously campy. Some of the actors can't hide their laughter very well, and it shows. Well, at least we know that production was harmonious.
Forget plot. Forget logic. Accept it as it is.
And as it is, I think it is a fun, harmless, refreshing comedy.
6/10
