A pathetic comedy where the highlight is an inside joke that Richard Pryor's character flips the bird with the wrong finger.

Sitcom-style silliness about (get this!) the hazards of MOVING.

What an outrageous story of a family's move across the country, and Pryor is hilarious, as is the rest of the cast, which includes Randy Quaid and Dana Carvey! I highly recommend this movie, it's hilarious.
