Synopsis: Bare-knuckle
brawler matches wits with orangutan, trades punches with world’s least-threatening
motorcycle gang.
Blurb From the VHS
Jacket: “Clint meets Clyde in an all-time comedy smash.”
What Did I Learn?:
It’s not a good idea to address a trucker as “lard ass.” 2) Back in 1978,
cantaloupes sold for 29 cents a pound.
You Might Like This
Movie If: You want to revisit 1970s nostalgia for the Fabulous Fifties.
Really?: 1) See: “Synopsis”. Wouldn’t the Black Widows
seem a little more dangerous near the end if they hadn’t already been brutally
beaten by a bunch of truckers and chased away by Philo’s mom? 2) So wait, an
evil cop (Putnam) tracks down Philo in the middle of quiet lake, points a
shotgun at him, and casually throws it away to help Philo reel in a big bass?
Come on, is he really that stupid?
Rating: I have to
admit that I’ve never been a big fan of the Any/Every Which Way films; while I
firmly believe Clint Eastwood has a knack for comedy, these films are a little
too crude, and far too dopey for my taste. (I also don’t have any plans to
review the sequel, Any Which Way You Can.) I cannot recommend this movie.4.5/10 stars.
Would It Work For a
Bad Movie Night?: Sure – take a drink any time Clint throws a punch. You'll be on the floor in minutes.
