Meanwhile, his evil double is busy taking his place at the bank and in his girlfriend's life! While visiting the local prison during jury duty, Ernest unwillingly switches places with a look-alike crime boss, Mr. Nash, who is doing time there. Will Ernest survive prison life and find a way to prevent Nash's planned crime spree? Only Ernest P. Worrell could show up for jury duty and wind up serving time in the slammer. When a crooked lawyer spots him and realizes that he is a dead ringer for his crime-boss client, the switch is on before you can say "here comes the judge."

Another Ernest classic!
Ernest is tricked into jail to replace a man who looks just like him. This is a stretch of Ernest's ability to act in two roles, one clumsy, and one in ernest, but beautifully portrayed. As always, Ernest wins the kind-hearted to himself and outdoes the villains by accident, of course, but with hilarious finesse. This is excellent Ernest, Vern. Be sure to get it.

DYSFUNKTIONAL FAMILY takes place at the crossroads of Eddie Griffin's stand-up comedy routine and his actual life. As the title of the film suggests, Griffin frequently exploits his family experiences for stage material, much to the alternating delight or chagrin of his mother, uncles, and friends. On stage, Griffin recalls meeting his father for the first time, his school days in Kansas City, and numerous beatings he received from his mother. Spliced between these dramatic moments are shots of Griffin walking around his old elementary school and the house in which he grew up. These biographical landscapes make Griffin's performance feel poignant, providing the viewer with the actual settings and characters from which he draws his material. When the film cuts between Griffin onstage and his mother at home relaying the same story--the two versions are often so completely in synch, it suggests Griffin's "act" is no act at all, just a presentation of his life itself. Most of Griffin's performance provides commentary on sex or race relations in the United States, and his exhibitionistic ...

A cavalcade of stars line up to pay tribute to American actor/comedian Don Rickles in this documentary feature. Director John Landis (AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON) splices excerpts from Rickles's movie career into the footage as celebrities such as Jay Leno, Sarah Silverman, Whoopi Goldberg, and Chris Rock all heap generous praise on the often-controversial star. Landis's film is based around Rickles's stand-up act at the Stardust in Las Vegas, which shows that he's lost none of his rapier wit despite the advancing years.
This terrific feature film comedy reveals the background of one of the legends of ...
