Summary: Beyond a cult classic
Review: Before we knew Michael Richards as off-the-wall Kramer, he was the off-the-wall Stanley Spadowski in UHF. Before Fran Drescher was the whiny Nanny, she was whiny Pamela Finklestein in UHF.
UHF is a zany movie about two friends who can't keep 'normal' jobs, but hit the jackpot when George's (Weird Al) uncle wins a loser UHF station in a poker game. They turn the station around and make it the most popular station in town with the totally wacky shows like 'Strip Solitaire', 'Conan the Librarian' and 'Town Talk'(which was Springer before there was Springer). Their popularity makes the owner of the BIG station in town mad. I hate to reveal the ending, but "tomorrah is anothah day"!
The bonus features are somewhat interesting, although the outtakes grow tiresome. If you like physical comedy or spoofs, you'll like UHF - it was way ahead of its time. Buy it today and laugh

Summary: Great movie, great DVD extras
Review: Excellent work by Michael Richards and Billy Barty highlight this deserved cult classic. Great audio commentary with Al and a couple of surprise guests. Great outtakes video hosted by Al, who supplies the context. It's a lot better than sterile "missing scenes" from other DVDs. Al, interviewed recently on Billy Barty's A&E biography, said he watched Barty's kiddie show while growing up. That show looked a lot like the show Richards hosts in this movie. Buy this DVD, and prepare to drink from the fire hose!

Summary: THE FUNNIEST MOVIE EVER MADE!!
Review: This is the funniest movie I've ever seen, and I know some complain about it, but what do the critics know, they though Taken was a good t.v. mini-series. This movies has got it all! It's slapstick with a simple plot, likeable characters, a fun and carefree environment, and of coaurse WEIRD AL!! If you haven't seen it yet, do so or I'll show you how poodles can fly. Gotta love this movie. Diserves 10 STARS !! Funniest movie ever made!!

Summary: I'm gonna club a baby seal to make a better deal!!!
Review: Before The Simpsons... before South Park... before Family Guy... and every other bizarre and brilliant mesh of slapstick and pop-culture parody there was (and still is!) Wierd Al Yankovic and his one and only feature "UHF." Supported by a truly outstanding supporting comedy cast (Fran Drescher, Michael Richards, et all) UHF is a riot of irreverence, audacity, and fantastic irony. With highlights like "Spatual City", "Ghandi II", "Conan the Librarian", and "Stanley Spedowski's Playhouse" this one is sure to keep you rolling on the floor for ages!

Summary: Ah, Weird Al!
Review: For sheer goofiness, Weird Al, Monty Python, and Ab Fab cannot be beat! UHF spoofs such pop culture icons as Indiana Jones, Rambo, and the American mythos of little guy makes good. One cannot help but laugh at Weird Al's wonderful word play and his physical contortions. Buy it and view it every time you need a little "pick me up."

Summary: One of the all-time best comedies!
Review: Weird Al's feature movie totally bombed when it came out back in 1989. Since then, it's become a cult favorite. It's a wacky off-beat comedy - not really for mainstream; but I've never met anyone who didn't like it. As for the DVD version - there's a ton of extra's: bonus material, a music video, and commentary by Weird Al (plus some special guests like Emo Philips and Michael Richards). So for a good time, grab a loved-one and a spatula and watch Weird Al at his finest.

Summary: Just the BEST !!!!
Review: I LOVE this movie !!! But the DVD makes it even better. There is an option to listen to Al give a commentary while you are watching the movie. It's like having Al over to your place to watch a movie and eat doughnuts ;) I've really enjoyed all the special features. If you love Al, and who doesn't, this dvd is a must.

Summary: Hurray for surreal humour!
Review: I was pleasantly surprised by this movie - having first seen it in my teens, I was afraid that I would have grown out of it - but it's even more wonderfully bizarre than I remembered! To enjoy this film, it does help to have some memory of the 80s - there's a lot of pop culture parodies, and Weird Al's girlfriend gets dressed up in a marvelous 80s party dress with gigantic puffed sleeves. Extras include some deleted scenes with explanations from Weird Al about why they were deleted (egs. "boring!!!" and "this really sucks") and movie commentary. The menus are quite cute and have Weird Al "doing things" (the New Al (TM) - after his laser eye surgury.) It's a bit annoying to have it on a "flip the disk" DVD (allowing the widescreen and full screen versions to fit on oen disk) but I didn't find any technical problems with it. If you like Al's music you'll love this. Very Monty pythony.

Summary: Tune In To UHF
Review: "Weird" Al Yankovic is a popular musician who parodies songs and plays the accordion. He gained fame and acclaim for his parody of Michael Jackson's "Beat It", "Eat It". His videos were heavily played on MTV and Mr. Yankovic had a strong screen presence and it was only natural that he would make the jump to feature films. His first, and so far only, film is cult favorite UHF. Mr. Yankovic plays George Newman, who is a big dreamer that can't hold down a steady job. His uncle wins a small TV station in a poker game and lets George run it. This is where the film has its best moments. The station is fodder for shows such as Wheel of Fish and Stanley Spadowski's Playhouse. The film is essentially made up of little vignettes from the station and they are hilarious. The film gets bogged down a bit by the script outside the television station, but it is such great fun, you can overlook that. The film also features a couple of no names at the time, who would go onto big success on television, The Nanny's Fran Drescher and Seinfeld's Michael Richards whose Stanley is a goofy forerunner of Kramer.
