Is this movie out of synch?

I swear, every time I see this movie on tv it looks out of synch. There are so many scenes that look like the dialog starts before their mouths move! Anyone else notice that too?

When the studio demanded a PG13 rating over R, many lines were re-recorded but not re-shot... the lines were then dubbed in. According to Chevy Chase, this movie was a hell of a lot better before certain entire scenes were cut and lines re-dubbed.

If you can read lips it's a much better movie.

Like Galaxy Quest when Sigourney Weaver's lips say "Well *beep* That" about crossing the blades.

OH SPOILER ALERT!

the editing sucks on this movie. That's why the pacing is so off. They could definitely clean it up with a re-edit
