Leave your thoughts about Armed and Dangerous.
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordIf the very sight of John Candy, the outsized comedian, strikes you as a hoot, then perhaps Armed and Dangerous is for you. It is difficult to imagine who else this latest movie about a pair of bumblers could be for. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeIt may not be armed, but it's dangerous alright. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael WilmingtonThe first 15 minutes have some funny bits, but the movie winds up sapping you. It's a kind of whoopee-cushion nightmare, as if you woke up one morning and noticed that everyone on the street was drooling on his or her tie. |
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrArmed and Dangerous is an extremely violent, often mean-spirited comedy in which most of the gags depend on the absurdly excessive use of force. Jokes like these are designed to appeal to adolescent power fantasies, and while kids may love them, adults are likely to be bored by their repetitiousness and senselessness. |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioIt takes a director with a true genius for disaster to put together SCTV veterans John Candy and Eugene Levy, the fine character actors Kenneth McMillan and Robert Loggia and the delicious new comic actress Meg Ryan and come up with a movie without a single laugh in it. Indeed, who but Mark Lester could have pulled it off? Lester's idea of directing is to turn up the music and wreck a lot of cars -- this isn't a movie, it's a Volvo ad. |
| User ReviewTom Da great comedy also filled with action! one of the best movies i've seen with john candy! |
| User ReviewJeff LThis is one of my favorite John Candy movies! The movie is very funny from begining to end. I don't know why so many people here have given it a bad rating. Maybe you had to be a security guard at one time in your life to appreciate this funny film? I have probably seen this flick like 50 times and it still makes me laugh. Anyway, if you have not seen it ... rent it. |
| User ReviewBeth GIf you have never seen this movie and you like comedy it's very very funny. Eugene Levey is every bit as good as John Candy. |
| User ReviewLosang SSuperb! Unbelievable! It has the greatest plot device ever conceived and implemented! |
| User ReviewMara FThis is My Second Favorite Movie!!! Favorite Line..."Hey What's With All The ?'s This is your Union...It's For your own protection. SO SHUT UP AND SIGN THE F**KING FORMS!! ...DO YOU HAVE A PEN? |
