Movie Reviews of Uncle Buck

Movie Review: UNCLE BUCK IS A MUST SEE CLASIC!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Uncle Buck is one of the movies I grew up watching. When I watch it nowadays it gives me a great feeling. The movie is unique and is great for solid laughter! When you watch this movie you can't help but laugh. I really like how the movie ends. After all the horrible situations Uncle Buck finds himself in (along with all the kids) the family tie is so close at the end and you can't help but tear up. I love it and it definitely gets a FIVE STAR rating from me!

Summary of Uncle Buck

John Candy stars in this John Hughes comedy as an idle good-natured bachelor who is left in charge of his nephew and nieces during a family crisis. Unaccustomed to suburban life fun-loving Uncle Buck soon charms his younger relatives Miles and Maizy with his hefty cooking and his new way of doing the laundry. But his carefree style doesnt impress everyone including Tia (Jean Kelly) his rebellious teenage niece and Chanice (Amy Madigan) his impatient girlfriend. Uncle Buck is the last person you would think of to watch the kids. But with a little luck and a lot of love he manages to surprise everyone in this heartwarming family comedy.

John Candy has one of his finest opportunities in this film by John Hughes (The Breakfast Club) about a perpetual screw-up (Candy) who gets his act together enough to watch over his brother's kids effectively. The late actor scores big points resurrecting elements of his more decadent persona from SCTV days, but he also has some persuasively touching, sentimental moments. Hughes's direction is not as focused as it was only a few years before, but there's no mistaking his touch. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, production notes, biographies, Dolby sound, optional Spanish and French soundtracks. --Tom Keogh
