this movie come from out of nowhere ( a do michael keaton ) to be one of the funny movie around . keaton character of billy blaze be so over the top funny that it be worth seeing over and over and over again . perfectly counter by henry winklers low key chuck . the support character be great as well the future inlaws and the judge and the pimp and the sandwich delivery guy while even the dog . all line write and deliver to perfection . all character ( no matter how small ) be memorable . i read the original script for night shift recently and it be not nearly as funny a the movie become cudos to cast and director ron howard for take this modest comedy to the next level . every scene that be intend to be funny make you crack up . the scene in the courtroom while the girl scout on the elevator while the finale in the club . in my opinion and ron howard best movie ( along with possibly parenthood ) . also and look for appearance in this movie by such future star a kevin costner and shannon doherty and and richard belzer .
