First off, there's a scene in the beginning where the protagonist is being made fun of for wearing this shirt. I used to have that exact same shirt! I still might around here somewhere.
But that's not my this movie gets a mediocre rating. I actually found the shirt part funny. I think I got that shirt at Burlington Coat Factory? The shirt is more memorable than this comedy. And this is more of a sweet love story than a comedy and that's okay. But we came for the laughs and not so much the love.
The cast is amazing. Wow. I don't even know what some of these actors were doing in this?
Isabel Sanford and Sherman Hemsley?
Clarence Williams III?
Legends, all of them in bit parts. Had to be a favor.
The director, Rusty Cundieff, is also the star. Which makes sense because I didn't recognize the dude here in 2023.
But he also wrote and directed Tales from the Hood just a couple of years before this.
I love that movie! It's not only one of my favorite 90's movies, it's one of my favorite horror movies of all time!
But this movie doesn't work.
Tisha Campbell and Paula Jai Parker are so gorgeous and I've always thought they looked like sisters and here they really do.
The movie is just not funny.
There's scenes where people have like Terminator-vision is the club, and other scenes where guys look like actual dogs in human clothes but it's just silly and flat.
I still don't really get what Sprung even means or meant back in 1997.
I was around then and have the shirt to prove it.
