Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The talk show host whom everyone loves to hate. When the advertisers and the fcc begin complaining about wally sparks outrageous antics. The network president gives him an ultimatum: clean up your act or your show is canned. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 10/28/2003 Starring: Rodney Dangerfield Debi Mazar Run time: 105 minutes Rating: R Director: Peter Baldwin

Amazon.com:
Rodney Dangerfield plays an outrageous television talk show host who gets a network ultimatum to change his act. He responds by seeking an interview with Georgia's governor (David Ogden Stiers) and uncovers a hidden scandal. There are a handful of guilty pleasure moments, such as a scene in which Wally accidentally breaks the penis off one of the governor's marble statues and hides it in his pants pocket . . . you can guess the rest. Otherwise there's not much to write home about, except for a number of cameos, including Oprah Winfrey and Roseanne. --Tom Keogh



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rodney meets Wally
Crude. Crass. Lowbrow. These words describe both the film & its title character. A real life fan of shows like "Jerry Springer", "Meet Wally Sparks" was obviously subject matter Rodney Dangerfield was anxious to base a comedy on. Just by watching the outrageously insane montage of the opening credits, you know immediately that this is not a "sophisticated" comedy...what would you expect from mining humor from the crazy world of "tabloid" talk shows, in which anything can--and usually does--happen? ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 'Meet Wally Sparks' (Lion Gate) Running time: 105 minutes
In my humble opinion, an excellent off-the-wall outrageously funny movie about an all-too zany talk show host Wally Sparks (Rodney Dangerfield). One thing I liked about this flick was that every character had their share of good lines. Things go nuts when Sparks rides into the Governor's mansion riding a horse - then gets injured, having to recover in a guest room at the mansion. Then, everything really gets out of hand when the 'Wally Sparks Show' gets broadcasted from the mansion as the whole place ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - [Three out of Four] Raunchy at times, but Rodney's third best film
Real good performances from Dangerfield,
Reynolds, Ogden Stiers, et, al. Some of
Rodney's obvious right wing views come
through (For more of this, go to the
scene in Back to School when he and
History Teacher, the late Sam Kineson
have there exchange about the p****y
wimp Truman who wouldn't let Mac Arthur
'go in there and blow them Commie Bas****ds
out!" Now that's what I'm talkin' about!
Here, Reynolds plays Rodney's Producer;

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's not "Back to School" or "Caddyshack", but it will work
This movie is not quite as good as Caddyshack or Back To School, but it's still pretty funny... at least as funny as Easy Money. Something you have to know going into a Rodney Dangerfield movie is that you cannot expect the most cerebral movie you've ever seen. With that in mind, if you are looking for a Rodney Dangerfield movie where he does the whole silly one-liner thing, and you've already seen the other 3 movies I've mentioned then this movie will hit the spot.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My Tree
This movie has a lot of good performances, especially by the actors. I have to admit that this movie has special meaning for me, however, because of Rodney Dangerfield. In my front yard I have a tree that looks EXACTLY like Rodney Dangerfield, I mean EXACTLY. Just the other day a motorist driving by yelled "Hey, your tree looks like Rodney Dangerfield!" I'm hoping to put up a website with a picture of this tree soon so keep your eyes peeled.

Also, be warned: this DVD is in the overrated ... Read More
