Movie Reviews of Tommy Boy (Holy Schnike Edition)
Movie Review: ABOUT TIME WE GOT A SPECIAL EDITION
Summary: 5 Stars
Like John Belushi, Chris Farley was a talent that just burned out way too quickly. Tommy boy is arguably Farley's best film as he's paired with his partner David Spade. Farley plays Tommy Callahan, the son of Big Tom Callahan who owns a brake parts factory in Ohio. Big Tom dies on his wedding day as he marries Beverly played by Bo Derek. Tommy thinks he's got a new brother in Paul (played uncredited by Rob Lowe) but paul and Beverly are really man & wife who planned on bilking Tom out of his money before he died.
In order to save the factory, Tommy has to go on the road and try to sell the companies new brake pads. Richared (spade) accompanies Tommy since he's an expert on Brake Pads. The picture becomes a buddy road picture similar to Planes, Trains, and Autmobiles with the slobbish Tommy constantly annoying the snobbish and anal-retentive Richard at every turn. Farley's brand of physical comedy is on prime display as, like Belushi, he was extremely graceful for a man of his size. As the pair do what they can to save the factory, Paul is back at home doing everything he can to make sure they fail including screwing up the shipping orders.
The hilarious scenes are too many to mention but the apparent dead deer who comes back to life and destroys Richard's vintage car is certainly a highlight as is Richard getting caught literally with his pants down by Tommy as he leers at a beautiful skinny dipper. Is Richard's favorite little Rascal Spanky???
Just a great film and the special edition DVD loaded with extras is very welcome to fans of this film.
