Easy Going Fluff

Club Fed is one of the movies you ended up renting from the video library if you arrived late and all the well known good movies were already rented. Thats because Club Fed has a few already known faces, but they are all actors who were at best number 10 in the cast list. We are talking here about the guy who played Rocky's girlfriends brother, or the guy who was Mauser's side kick in Police Academy. And you rented this because you didn't want to go home empty handed and it couldn't be that bad with known faces right? I can see quite a few people were disappointed because they likely didn't know things like Troma or lesser budget Roger Corman existed. This plays out like a budget and less on the nose movie in the Police Academy franchise. But far more goofball in terms of the humour. If you think a grown man punching a female dwarf is funny, this is for you. The plot is almost irrelevant as its mainly set piece slapstick gags and bimbo jokes. Its definitely an easy watch and one you will likely watch to the end. Despite its low rating that's not something you can saw about most movies today.

Low Budget "Comedy"

Fans of the Police Academy series of broad comedies will find plenty to enjoy here; Lance Kinsey, who appeared in most of the Police Academy films, is the lead here. Others will not. Lots of silly, obvious jokes. Some are painful, but, I must admit, some of the gags had me laughing. But only some.This is the kind of movie that throws everything at the wall and sees what sticks up there. If a joke isn't funny, relax, another gag will be along in half a second. The writing is uneven, and again, sometimes the script is funny, and at other times is just plain pathetic. All the lead actors are screen veterans, and in spite of the low budget, seem to be throwing their all into it. Hard to believe Allen Garfield devolved from an Academy Award nomination to this, but hey, sometimes you have to take whatever work you can get.Overall, undemanding comedy fans may find this worthwhile to watch on TV. Okay, that sounded a bit harsh. But probably warranted.
