Meaning to thwart the advances of a hometown boy, a college student takes her California surfer roomie to her Midwestern home for Thanksgiving and passes him off as her husband-to-be. After a few complications, the visiting couple falls for each other, the family finally accepts him and the suitor-hopeful is no longer a threat. Pauly Shore and Carla Gugino star in this light comedy. ~ Kristie Hassen, Rovi

Medium-funny culture clash humor contrasting California with the rural south.
It stars Pauly Shore. 'Nuf said.
One of the better Pauly movies, not saying much!
An excellent comedy. You'll laugh til the cows come home!
Totally stupid, but works ... if you're drunk!
Alternately stupid and offensive.
