The Dream Team:
This movie is about four patients in a sanitarium who go on a field trip in a van with each other, their group therapy buds, and their doctor to a Yankees game. On their way they have to stop because a patient has to go to the bathroom. The doctor ends up having to take the patient into the alley to pee, but gets attacked by two murderers and sent to a hospital as a John Doe. The patients are left all alone in New York, and to make things worse, they are framed for the murder. The theme of this movie is to always trust and believe in yourself and your friends, and that change can happen. This movie is an old comedy and the theme isn’t all too deep. The main characters are the four patients, Billy played by Michael Keaton, Henry played by Christopher Lloyd, Jack played by Peter Boyle, and Albert played by Stephen Furst. Billy has anger problems and makes up crazy stories, Henry has OCD so needs everything super organized and neat, Jack thinks he is the son of God, and Albert didn’t talk but now only talks in TV baseball lingo. The plot idea sets up for an ok comedy, but is still weak and the lack of real theme behind the film and the weird unrealistic characters make it a bad film. Not only are their conditions a little unrealistic, but also the previous connections they somehow made before having the conditions are outrageous. For example, Henry has a daughter, Jack used to be a VP of an advertising company, and Billy has a girlfriend. Bottom line is this film isn’t worth your time or money, so don’t buy it or even watch it.Quote: Billy says, “Restaurant security. Just a minor utensil violation. Go ahead, enjoy your dinner.”
