Review of Moving

Moving (1988)
6/10
Was bad, nows Good.
8 March 2005
I saw this back in '88 and hated it because it's so forced and contrived, but I just watched it, and it was fun. I had no expectations and it was still forced and contrived, but in a good way. I loved the finger bit, and the DOG was great.

Dana Carvey was Great. Course he always is. Pryor has been better. Like in Stir Crazy, or Live in Concert, but he's still Pryor here. Quaid, seemed like a rip off from Vacation, or maybe that was a rip off of this? Maybe Quaid was one diminutional, on second thought maybe he still is. I like him anyway. Morris Day had a cool cameo.

Apparently I need 10 lines to post an opinion, but there is not much to add, it's a simple movie, what else can I say? The credits were cool. I bet the titles guys are evenious of PhotoShop. I can see them now saying back in my day we had to skew those titles by hand.

Now that I think about it, this could have been better if they just played up some of the bits and ignored others. Like the house, who is going to remove that from the back yard? But the old packing guy was great, yet they just dropped that.
