Overshadowed by John Hughes films at the time

SO WRONG! There are good reasons it hasn't come out on DVD. The characters are one dimensional, the acting is uninspired, the plot is predictable, the corny end credits scene with everyone in the same restaurant (exterior of Walker Brothers Original Pancake House in Wilmette, Illinois, interior is not). Talk about parodying small town Minnesota? Only by Franken's character's reference to the beauty of women in Minnesota being derived from Swedish heritage and other occasional references (an aerial shot of a St. Cloud water tower at the end? Give me a break!) to St. Cloud, Minnesota, is there any hint of anything uniquely Minnesotan. It was more similar to John Hughes films shot in north suburban Chicago (Uncle Buck, Sixteen Candles), where most of this film is actually shot (north suburban Chicago), but not as good. Fargo (mostly Minnesota), Purple Rain, North Country, That Was Then...This Is Now, Grumpy Old Men, Grumpier Old Men and New in Town (had to be shot in Winnipeg) are good examples of films set in Minnesota. There would be very little market for a DVD of this film, only a handful of devotees on IMDB.
