I know I remember bits and pieces from when I was a kid and my dad was watching it, but I never actually sat and watched it all the way through. Great movie, and I loved the scene with John Candy in the car jamming to Mess Around by Ray Charles as well as the ending. Don't think there is any John Candy movie I don't like. Also think I will make this a Thanksgiving week tradition since there aren't that many Thanksgiving themed movies.

Pretty much on point why i dropped it. Tried it months ago and it just felt bad.
Honestly surprised I’ve never seen this. I get why it went a box office hit
