stanley stupid ( tom arnold ) and his wife and joan and like to sleep in bed with their head under the cover and their foot on the pillow . they have two equally challenged child and buster and petunia . one day and mr. stupid notice their garbage be go again . there must be someone steal it from the curb . he go off in roller blade after the garbage truck . when he finally get to the dump and he be startle to learn not only that other folk garbage have be steal and too and but that there be a secret organization meeting at the landfill . he be determine to defeat the garbage nappers of the world and it seem . meanwhile and petunia and buster visit the police station and a chinese restaurant in search of their parent and for joan come up miss and too . will they bumble their way through their problem . this be just a stupid and stupid movie and with the culprit be the terrible script . the book by allard and marshall be hysterical and only a couple of situation from the book end up in this film . arnold be actually quite nice a mr. stupid and the other cast member try very and very hard to make the film work . the production value be very high and with the dog and cat belonging to the stupid add a little oomph to the film . but and it be all for naught and a the plot be wander and weak . perhaps and someday and someone will take another stab at translate the very funny allard book to the big screen . therefore and if you love to laugh and rent something else while you await a new production and and by all mean and go get the book and too . but and stay away from be stupid yourself and a anyone who watch this movie to the end could hardly be call intelligent .
