Movie Reviews of Summer Rental
Movie Review: Watch your toes Mother Teresa, this movie is hilarious!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Your wife's on my Whammo!", "You couldn't beat my dinghy.", "Hi, I'm Jack Chester your neighbor, and you are?...having lunch!", "I"m giving you a mandatory FIVE!", "I'm not wearing that bathing suit until I lose 3 or 4 pounds.", "MAY I SEE YOUR RECEIPT?!?!?!?!", "He was a beacon to us all...he will be sorely, sorely missed...and now, I'll sign the papers.", "Honey, you're in your pajamas...I KNOW, I KNOW...excuse me...". If any of these lines bring a smile to your face then I know you will love this film. Me and my family and friends love to quote this movie at gatherings such as barbecues, church picnics, and funerals. We're also fans of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, The Great Outdoors, and Chevy Chase in Vacation. Richard Crenna gives an outstanding performance and certainly a nod to John Larroquette for his cameo. Brilliant! All I can say is BUY IT or I'm going to toss you out...PERSONALLY!Movie Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is, without doubt, one of the funniest movies the late, great John Candy ever made. Richard Crenna is great as the rich, snobby dentist who thinks he owns Florida and tries to run Candy's family out by refusing their rent check (he owns thier rental house). Great performances by Candy, Crenna, and Rip Torn. I have only one problem with the movie....there is a great song by Jimmy Buffett called "Turning Around" which is featured in full as the credits roll, but the song is not available. I am a Buffett fan, but I have never seen the song in any recorded form, and there seems to be no "Summer Rental" soundtrack. It's frustrating to watch the movie, hear the song, and not be able to buy the song anywhere. Why Buffett never released it is beyond me. Anyway, the movie is great, the acting is wonderful, and the soundtrack is really good.
Watch "Summer Rental" and be prepared to laugh.
Movie Review: OUTSTANDING
Summary: 5 Stars
John Candy does an outstanding job in this movie, playing the part of Jack Chester, a burned out traffic controller who desperately needs a relaxing vacation. Too bad he doesn't get one!Taking his family to Florida, he does not know the cabin he has rented is right next door to a public walk leading to the beach.
Living in Florida, I certainly know how busy those walks can be, and that only heightened the laughter for me, as Jack had to deal with 'walkers' everyday, who wanted a glass of water or to use the bathroom. Good Lord!
Add to that a budding teenage daughter, a neighbor who wants to show off her new 'breasts' and rich jerks who think they own the Florida beaches (oh yes,I have seen them as well).
This all adds up to a great movie, one that you will watch time and time again. Outstanding!
Movie Review: Summer Rental.
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie was so funny! This was John Candy's first leading role was in this film by Carl Reiner, in which the comic actor played a stressed-out air traffic controller who takes his family on a Florida vacation and has to deal with arrogant, rich jerks. Candy is good in what is almost a straight part and Reiner keeps the tone in check so his star has an opportunity to show more than one dimension. Summer Rental is great, but it could still be much better. It is so funny, and all the jokes work, and his daughter in this movie is so HOT! You must see this movie. John Candy's just pure funny, an it...that he isn't with us anymore. Oh well at least Jim Carrey is still around.Movie Review: Best Of Candy
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so surprized to find my grandson had never seen John Candy in Summer Rental. To me this film was the best of his movies (except for Uncle Buck). His antics are typical Candy but the plot is so subtle you almost laugh right by it. I recommend you get the popcorn out early and prepare for an evening of tear-strained laughter! You'll need your best armor for the hilarious battle of the century! Why is this one so little known? After asking more of my grandchildren, none had heard of it. But they have NOW!! And they love it! Try it---You'll like it! I PROMISE! Thank you, Pat Adams
