John Candy vs. Dom DeLuise

Posted on May 16, 2017 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

I grew up with John Candy and Dom DeLuise movies. Their silly performances appealed to me as a kid on a very rudimentary level. They’re big, fat comedians who managed to get a laugh through their awkward yet charming comedic … Continue reading →

The Wisdom of Montgomery Brewster’s Great-Uncle

Posted on May 2, 2017 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Pleasant Surprises: Swiss Family Robinson

Posted on April 11, 2017 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

As a kid, I wasn’t a huge fan of Disney’s old live-action movies. They were so boring and quaint, like The Parent Trap (1960) and Freaky Friday (1976). I probably would have had a whole different perspective on the matter … Continue reading →
