I'm a movie buff that doesn't suffer bad films gladly. I had known about it's reputation ever since it had come out and never got around to seeing it until a few days ago. Frankly, I started it up expecting the worst and was ready to jump on the hate bandwagon. But, in my opinion, it's nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. It has it's charms at times and kind of grew on me a bit.
That being said, it's not my type of film and I would place it with all of the other "crappy, leave your brain at the door" 80's comedies. Really, is it any worse than a film like "Spies Like Us" or "Three Amigos"? Yes, it probably cost a lot more than those, so one can quibble about that I suppose.
So, I would put it in the "crappy" category, not the "awful" one :)
