More Mean Spirited than Funny.


Maybe my sense of humor is out of wack but this movie to mean always seemed sort of cruel or mean spirited. It just seemed to view girls as sexual objects while taking a break every so often to feel sorry for Jews who were being picked on. What the hell was up with that combo in a movie? Weird.

I always felt the same, which is why I didn't like this movie or any of Clark's movies.

Even the Jew character, the guys who are supposed to be his friends tell him they still are friends with the guy who is being awful to him.

I have never understood the love this movie gets. I love B movies with nekkid chicks, but this always seemed kind of mean spirited. The girls are just plain trash and treated like dirt. The Jewish guy, nobody really helped him from the supposedly "good guys" in the movie.

Frankly, I didn't like anyone in this movie. Nobody was likeable.
