Meet Arlo Pear! He's a family man with a loving wife, a rebellious daughter, twin sons, and a half-dead dog, he's also got a nice job with the city in New Jersey. He's a mass transit engineer. But one day Arlo is fired so he must try to get another job. He finds a similar one to his old one, except it's in Boise, Idaho. Sounds good to Arlo, so he can finally get away from his insane neighbor who has a lawn mower the size of Pennsylvania. Only problem, how to break it to the family? The decision is soon made: they're moving. Now they've got to sell their house which has hilarious results, so now they need to get movers. Two former cons now movers show up with King Kong Bundy. Now, they gotta find a new house in Idaho. They soon find their dream house, so they return to New Jersey and head off to Boise. Arlo hires a man (Dana Carvey) to drive his SAAB to Idaho, not knowing he's a man of eight personalities. And if that isn't bad enough, their new house is not what they expected, and their neighbor in New Jeresey's twin brother lives next door and he's got a gigantic mower also. And as if things couldn't get any worse, they do. Arlo loses his new job and the movers never showed up. So now it's time for Arlo to kick some serious A$$!
Leave your thoughts about Moving.
| Washington PostHal HinsonAll in all, the picture goes down fairly easily, and by any estimate it's an improvement over other Pryor nonconcert films such as The Toy or even Brewster's Millions. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinMoving isn't anything out of the ordinary, but those who have shared at least some of these experiences ought to find it amusing. |
| Miami HeraldHal BoedekerIt's a wholly passive performance, and one that touches not at all on Pryor's special gifts. This man desperately needs a new agent. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasSince the humor in Moving never rises above the level of a stale sitcom, the film defeats proven comedy director Alan Metter and even its star, Richard Pryor, stuck in the squarest, most strait-jacketed role of his career. |
| United Press InternationalCathy BurkeIt pays handsomely to hang on tight and enjoy the ride. There's always some surprises when Richard Pryor takes the stage. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)John AllemangThe movie has only a few bright moments, mainly provided by the fine group of supporting actors. Pryor displays none of his old manic energy, and the film follows suit, proceeding with murderous deliberation. |
| User ReviewVernon GThis was finally released on DVD a couple years ago (in a double feature with "Greased Lighting"). This is one of the funniest movies of the 80's. Randy Quaid and the movers make this movie, ut the cameos from Rodney Dangerfield, Dana Carvey and Morris Day all add value. Watch this movie! |
| User ReviewRosanne Tif you wanna timewarp to the 80's with unmatchable Pryors, you will bust a rib for sure. This is my fav comedy ever. Timeless. |
| User ReviewFOXXYSKYYHe was the funniest man of his generation & this is one of his classics! It's hard to pick my favorite Richard Pryor movie because he is so great & brilliant but I would have to say See No Evil, Hear No Evil is my favorite after that Which Way is Up! He is hilarious! |
| User ReviewPrivate UOne of those sleeper hits that I always show my friends and they end up loving it too. If you can find it, watch it. I have two copies on VHS because I wore out my first copy. I fell onto this movie by accident by inheritance from my uncle. Dana Carvey is hilarious in it as a guy who agrees to drive Richard Pryor's car across the country as his family moves from NJ to Boise, Idaho. Little does Arlo Pear (Pryor) know, his driver has multiple personalities which include seeing Dana Carvey dressed as a woman in one of the funniest scenes in this movie! Seriously, watch this movie! |
