Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Perry and Farely make a good team
This movie is funny. The acting may not be all that great, the story line might be a little boring, and it may not make all that much sense but where this movie lags chris farely and matt perry make it up for it. The movie is filled with scenes that will make you laugh. It's to bad theres little things that stop this from being a classic. For one the theres to many scense that just go to far. Second, there is some poor acting from some minor characters. Overall this movie is worth watching and i recommend buying it as you will want to watch it more than once.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Almost Heroes: Wacky Characters and One-Liners
This movie derives it's humor from a series of wacky frontier situations that are completely accepted as normal by everyone but Matthew Perry.

The cast of this movie is excellent, you'll recognize most of them from Christopher Guest's "Mockumentary" films, but also involved are some unknowns who really steal the show and support a shallow plot.

The film is full of memorable one-liners and one particularly funny monologue where a member of the group (Higgins) tells how he tricked his brother into eating sheep dung, then delights in revealing that he has no brother at all, it was HE himself, HE ate the sheep dung.

Another great performance is from Kevin Dunn as Hidalgo, a vain Spanish tyrant who tortures people that do not praise the beauty of his hair or "the light that shines from within".

And of course, Eugene Levy as the cowardly and incompetent French linguist Guy Fontenot, whose facial expressions revealed behind a giant mustache are absolutely hilarious.

The only problem with the movie is maybe too many main characters, as Jonah the man-servant and the Priest really don't serve any purpose or offer any laughs during the course of the film.

This movie was overshadowed by Chris Farley's unfortunate death and is really worth your time if your a fan of wacky, non-sensical comedy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Absolutely Hilariuos!
Wow! This is a piece of art lost in time, not very famous (or not famous at all) BUT very very extremely funny! Think of Chris Farley and Matthew Perry, it's laughter time! Please check this one out, is very very funny.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "A Footnote To A Footnote" ~ The Race To The Pacific
What if Lewis and Clark were not the only brave explorers forging a pathway across the Pacific Northwest on their journey to the ocean? What if they were actually in a race with another band of daring adventurers led by a rather inept pair named Edwards and Hunt?

Plausable or not, that's the plot of this highly underrated, slapstick comedy 'Almost Heroes' released in '98. Matthew Perry and Chris Farley are hilarious as Leslie Edwards and Bartholomew Hunt. Add to the cast the always enjoyable Eugene Levy as their French guide and the lovely Lisa Barbuscia as the lovely Indian maiden Shaquina and your set for a journey filled with lots of chuckles this oddball party of explorers strive to become more than just "a footnote to a footnote" in the history of America.

Silly, definitely / predictable, at times / enjoyable, absolutely!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Chris Farley...
If you are a Chris Farley fan you will enjoy this film. The story is weak, however Farley alone makes this film watchable.
