Nothing but trouble - 1991 * * * *

All they wanted was a little getaway, all they got was nothing but trouble...

I honestly can't see why this film was slated so much on it's release. To me it was hilarious!

Chevy Chase is very funny and so (of course) is John Candy (who plays a cop and a woman).

Chevy Chase, his potential girlfriend and his 2 friends drive off for a fun weekend together, but take a wrong turn and end up in a bizarre area of the backwoods where they stumble upon a sadistic Judge and his family who like to 'charge then dismember' anyone who they decide isn't worthy of life.

They end up all having to work together to decide a way to escape, but it's not going to be as easy as they think..

Some scenes are so stomach-churning they actually made me turn away, but it's all in good fun really and Dan Ackroyd is on top for as the Judge so that makes everything alright. Contrary to popular belief I thought Chevy Chase was great in this!
