This film has an excellent plot. Great characatures. Kareem Abdul Jabaar. It is Chevy Chase's best work. Sublime, punny, witty, cerebral humor. You don't usually get it all when you see a comedy, many have limited scope, holes like swiss cheese, sex and foul language to obtain a rating, and poor acting. This movie transcends it all...and if you know anything about ballbearings, it will keep you in stitches many times over.
