He steals the movie. The more I have seen of him the more I appreciate him as an actor. Otherwise this is a typical slapstick Roach with lots of pretty women with Landis looking particularly great. She sings too and, if it's not dubbed, she's very good. There's also an African American quartet of singers that are remarkably good. Feels more like a 30's flick. Fun fight scene at the end. A fun worthwhile watch.

Funny Stuff--I liked it too !!!!
The scene where the watermelons are "That Way" and the chickens "Over there" !!!
I rewound it several times.

I liked the singing group too that's why I went Wikipedia and YouTube. They were quite successful I'm surprised I haven't heard of them. I found some great clips and recordings of them they're " The Chairoteers."
