The film's appeal will depend largely on whether you feel like laughing at senile dementia and automobile accidents. May 4, 2014 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

[Director Kotcheff] treats material that might have been effective as dark, nightmare comedy as something bright, bouncy and frivolous, an approach that kills all the laughs and turns shock into mere tastelessness. May 4, 2014 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

Klane has written this one as less of a slow burn, going instead for obnoxiously stunt-filled, madcap farce, all the way to the high-concept-reinforcing title exclamation point. May 4, 2014 | Full Review…

Marking severe career setbacks for Ameche and Selleck, Folks! represents an obvious miscalculation as to the low intelligence of the mass audience. Mar 26, 2009 | Full Review…

Masquerading as a commentary on the greedy '80s, this is clearly the sort of moronic comedy beloved of the Weekend at Bernie's team of Kotcheff and writer Robert Klane. Jan 26, 2006 | Full Review…

It's not easy to fathom how Mr. Selleck or any other actor could have read this far in Robert Klane's screenplay and still decided to go full steam ahead. May 20, 2003

Folks! stinks! But Robert Klane's screenplay for this fatally flawed, off-beat, black-humored comedy does have some almost redeeming values. Apr 17, 2018 | Full Review…

Senility and attempted suicide are used to supposed comic effect as Selleck wanders around in various states of disarray, probably wondering what on earth he did to end up in this dreadful film. May 4, 2014 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

It is an unnecessarily cruel little film that attempts to evoke humor from the afflictions of old age, while using the bungling of an elderly parent to thrash a younger man into submission. May 4, 2014 | Full Review…

For the final third, we don't know whether to laugh at or be appalled by Selleck's attempts to murder a couple of old people by such methods as pushing them onto the highway in a gas-drenched Ford Pinto. May 4, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

A horribly cheesy, cliche "comedy" that asks us to find humor in a mean-spirited, depressing story about an elderly couple begging their son to murder them on a count of the fact that they just can't stand living in pain anymore.
Super Reviewer
While it had it's shares of laughs, the rest of the film kind of just passed on by like unwanted in-laws during Christmas vacation.
Good disaster comedy of Tom Selleck, sans moustache, loses not only his sanity, but also one ear, one eye, a couple of toes and a testicle.
