Probably soon to when it came out on video my mother asked for a family film suggestion from a movie rental store clerk and he suggested this film.
I think we watched maybe 5 mins and shut it off because my mom didn't like amount of profanity and she was not happy about being suggested this film.
No idea how I would feel know about it now, but I was just curious if it starts off with a lot of profanity.
I would certainly be embarrassed to watch this film in front of my parents. I'm surprised by the profanity, because the tone of this film is pretty family friendly except for some of the language.

This is true!

Yes, Randy Quaid, Dana Carvey and Dave Thomas have interesting brief roles, and even Rodney Dangerfield has a cameo. I also liked seeing a young Stacey Dash from "Clueless" as Richard Pryor's daughter.
I found it on VHS in the buck bin of a record store a few years ago. I remember that it vanished pretty quickly when it came out in '88. It's probably one of Pryor's more forgettable films, but I thought it had its moments.

Yes, "See No Evil, Hear No Evil" is much better, even though Richard looks a bit ill there (and here). It's amazing what a great comedy team he made with Gene Wilder. Who'd have thunk it? I had forgotten Kevin Spacey was in that.
shareWhen I was around 10 my parents made me stop whatching it when Dana drove the saab back all destroyed and when he started cursing rapidly.
shareThe first time I watched Moving was probably around 1992/93 with my family. We sat through it without my parents getting edgy, which they could easily be. Then I watched it again some years later and it was on late, I was surprised as the version I saw the first time was heavily edited. It's a good film either way..
shareI guess people don't realize that it's a Richard Pryor movie. It's going to have profanity.
