Spies like us - Dan Akroyd / Chevy Chase - little seen 80s comedy which has some hilarious bits , great cameos and whip fast dialogue.
Doctor
Doctor.
If I recall, that was a huge hit when it came out. I wouldn’t call it an uncommon film.
That's nice. I'd still consider it more of a cult film for anyone not of that generation compared to the other films by these two.
Common if you grew up with HBO in the 80s and 90s, otherwise maybe not so much.
Yeah, but half the people here weren't even born when it came out.
So for that matter, one could respond with Cleopatra, or Ben Hur?
Huh. I’ve never really thought of Ben Hur as a comedy.
What type of movie it is is irrelevant. The point remains that old and outdated, doesn’t mean uncommon.
Oooo...yeahhhh, ummm...I'm gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. Yeah, uh, this is a thread about comedies, and I'm just not sure that this is the caliber movie that we would want for an uncommon comedy.
Replace Ben Hur with ANY Jerry Lewis film then. The point remains.

I loved the theme song for this when it came out.
