Movie Reviews of Meet Wally Sparks
Movie Review: 'Meet Wally Sparks' (Lion Gate) Running time: 105 minutes
Summary: 5 Stars
In my humble opinion, an excellent off-the-wall outrageously funny movie about an all-too zany talk show host Wally Sparks (Rodney Dangerfield). One thing I liked about this flick was that every character had their share of good lines. Things go nuts when Sparks rides into the Governor's mansion riding a horse - then gets injured, having to recover in a guest room at the mansion. Then, everything really gets out of hand when the 'Wally Sparks Show' gets broadcasted from the mansion as the whole place gets transformed into a media circus. Couple of the others that have a vital role that show up here are Wally's sexy assistant Sandy Gallo (Debi Mazar), Governor Floyd Preston (David Ogden Stiers) - his wife Emily (Cindy Williams, still cute after all these years following Laverne & Shirley) and the deceiving porn actress Lola Laura (Cindy Ambuehl). Mama-mia! They rarely come along any hotter than this one. Highly recommended.
Summary of Meet Wally Sparks
The talk show host whom everyone loves to hate. When the advertisers and the fcc begin complaining about wally sparks outrageous antics. The network president gives him an ultimatum: clean up your act or your show is canned. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 10/28/2003 Starring: Rodney Dangerfield Debi Mazar Run time: 105 minutes Rating: R Director: Peter BaldwinRodney Dangerfield plays an outrageous television talk show host who gets a network ultimatum to change his act. He responds by seeking an interview with Georgia's governor (David Ogden Stiers) and uncovers a hidden scandal. There are a handful of guilty pleasure moments, such as a scene in which Wally accidentally breaks the penis off one of the governor's marble statues and hides it in his pants pocket . . . you can guess the rest. Otherwise there's not much to write home about, except for a number of cameos, including Oprah Winfrey and Roseanne. --Tom Keogh
