Alright, I stole that title from "Searching for Sugar Man", but it accurately describes this tale of an everyday-man who may not realize just how good he has it.
under-rated B+ surprise.
Belushi and Hamilton are great.. so is Caine, as usual..
What really sets this apart are the sentimental scenes after Belushi has altered his life-path. At that point in the film, Belushi's character is going through all sorts of emotions, and you feel like you're on the roller-coaster with him.
The film is often predictable and doesn't have that many laugh-out-loud moments, BUT the direction is sharp, and the film is undeniably fun.
I love all the heart and meaning, and the casting really pulls the whole thing together.
Belushi is the king of under-rated B movies. I highly recommend this one.
79/100 You mIght Like this if you liked: Taking Care of Business(about as good), Mr. Nobody(as good), and The Full Monty(as good).
