Was this sort of movie funny back in the 80's? I really don't remember. Basically a pair of yuppies want to lose themselves ala "Easy Rider" but instead whine and quibble about every possible thing in their lives. It tries to be a funny workplace humor piece, but fails miserably. It tries to be a road-trip film and fails there too.
No one will like the characters or the plot or anything. For funnier workplace humor, rent Mike Judge's masterpiece "Office Space." For the best road-trip humor, the classic "Vacation" and "European Vacation" can't be beat.
What distresses me most, is this film made the AFI's top 100 funniest movies (why we rented it in the first place). We have since stopped working through that list.
