Released: 1987 |
| The pairing of Steve Martin and John Candy in
this John Hughes film is what really made the film so funny.
The way the two actors played off of each other was brilliant.
The scenarios presented in the film are ridiculous, funny and
original all at the same time. Steve Martin plays an uptight
businessman trying to get home for the holidays.
Somehow he runs into John Candy and that's where the fun begins.
The two travel together utilizing every means of transportation
imaginable including driving down the highway in a burnt-out shell
of a car. As annoying as John Candy's character is to Steve
Martin's throughout the film, Steve somehow takes a liking to him
by the end of the movie. I took a liking to this movie the
first time I saw it and still can't help but laugh every time I
see it. |
