Reviews for Almost Heroes
A forgettable farce with no flavor...utterly flaccid and foolish. It wastes the comedic capabilities of Farley and Perry who deserve much better
It's clear, his death notwithstanding, that Farley is the funniest thing about this silly piece of celluloid.
It's not the funniest film I've ever seen, but Chris Farley sure cracked me up often in this flick.
