Summary: The (Dimwitted) Fugitive
Review: Ridiculous-looking city slicker Daniel Stern plays a commonplace idiot named Max who delivers mailings for Fed-Ex. As he struts through the streets chomping down dough balls and slim jims, while slurping on a giant Coke, there isn't a soul around him who can't admit that the man defines true stupidity. And when Max is greeted by a fire in a giant mansion, where he was sent to deliver a package on a foggy night, he quickly becomes the number one suspect when the fumes kill the man of the house.

Looking for a place to hide out, Max falsely identifies himself as a famed mountain climber and animal man to a group of elementary boy scouts and girl scouts. All the while, Daniel Stern avoids equally hapless police who simply try to match the face that was on the news. "Bushwhacked" never appears to be worthwhile until you sit down and take a look at Daniel Stern's Marty Stouffer imitation. It is one of those tapes with a plot that leaves you dissapointed, but countless one-timed gags and quips featuring everything from a grizzly bear to a police officer with his chin glued to his own steering wheel. It's no "Casanova", but Mr. Stern delivers a number of laughs...and packages.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great movie with a great cast
Review: Upon watching this, one has to ask themselves how this film compares to other standard Hollywood comedies. How does it compare? Very well indeed. The average comedy these days isn't as funny as this movie is. This movie is very creative and witty. This movie was so well cast and the characters are perfect for the film. Daniel Stern was hilarious as Max Grebelski and the scout troop was brilliant.

Aside from Stern, the scout troop makes the film a remarkable comedy. They work well together and have great chemistry. Ari Greenberg and Janna Michaels were my favorite scout troop characters. Ari played his role perfectly and Janna lights up the screen-she's a fantastic actress and should be in more films.

All in all, this film is a feel good comedy with great mountain scenery and is worth taking a look at.
