I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Expected more

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Chris Farley's last film, a great western adventure. I finished today, it was funny and full of laughs and the score is beautiful. Made me look up more on what the Lewis & Clark Expedition was all about. Because its the middle of August here, I like seeing summer movies with the weather I'm in, I don't know why. Anyways I wasn't sure how Chris Farley and Matthew Perry would hold up as a team compared to Chris being with David Spade. But actually, they did well, I like them along with Kevin Dunn and other actors. This was a funny and spirited movie, some parts I wouldn't have put in there like the ear scene. But if I had to pick a favorite scene, I'd say the egg part with Chris's character haha. Also the part where Chris's character Hunter has to climb a cliff and let's just say there are other ways to get down. Check this movie out yourself its worth the watch. And as always, RIP Chris Farley you are always missed!

I'm not saying that Chris Farley was crap in the movie, it just concentrated too much for Matthew Perry. I honestly thought Perry wasn't the best as the leading role. Maybe for a comedy television show series like 'Friends' but definitely not a western comedy film.I didn't really like his narrative accent or his accent, it sounded really dull and boring to hear. Why couldn't they get David Spade back for just once chance to be involved with Farley again?! I thought the men joining them were a joke because they shouldn't appear thick in the head. They should appear as brave men risking for their entire lives to be at sea. Didn't the film crew ever think of this?The movie may have been the worst Farley took a big risk with, but he was still a legend as always and that he still is remained on peace on this very day. RIP

I first caught this movie when it aired on CW a few months ago. It's a real thrill that's full of amusing moments. The basis of this 19th century story is that two explorers named Bartholomew Hunt (Chris Farley) and Leslie Edwards (Matthew Perry), among and along with several, other allies go on an expedition and they're in a competition of sorts against Lewis and Clark. Which make both duos counterparts and rivals to each other. This is a fun spin on what could've nearly been historically had the former duo's group beaten the latter's to the punch. The meeting between comedy and history makes for a much more engaging and compelling subject matter. It's a fine outing as the grand finale of the late, former SNL alumnus Farley's film performances. One of the highlights for me and among my favorite parts is when Bart gets carried away by the eagle before falling into the ocean (or was it the sand dune/beach? I'm not sure). Hopefully, for those who aren't very into crude humor, it's few and far between, so y'all should be able to get past those moments and check it out, if y'all haven't already. I think I've seen some or most of Farley's films and I still haven't even settled on a favorite (most and least) yet. And he did it again, having another hit with this one. I'm with those who disagree with the others who could be known as the haters of this movie, it's as great, if not better, than the other movies in one of the lead actors' filmographies. This comical adventure flick is a rollicking, grand old time y'all will neither regret nor forget.

There are many unanswered questions that surround this TBS Superstation staple. Questions like: Who greenlit a picture of two incompetent explorers (played by Chris Farley and Matthew Perry, no less) who "compete" with Lewis and Clark in traveling across the country? Why did Christopher Guest (yeah, the one who specializes in mockumentaries) decide to make this mostly gross-out flick for teens? Exactly how spooky is that scene where Farley out-drinks an entire conquistador fleet? And why, oh why, was there a butt-shot of Eugene Levy? Maybe these questions are partly why I like this film far more than I should. Another reason may be that it showcases Farley the best of his final given films (the eagle's egg scene shows why fans adored him; flawless slapstick, all by himself... and a prop eagle). Another may be Perry's hilarious performance (he's at the height of his Chandler wit, which is all I really want to see him do). No matter how ridiculous the premise is, there actually are some genuinely funny ideas and moments in Almost Heroes, like old but nimble braves and a fellow traveler who, ignorantly and unwillingly, is dished out almost all of the group's natural suffering. My favorite scene is really more just a gag: The team of sweetly dumb pioneers gives in to fear of animals and take fire at one squirrel. My main question after watching Almost Heroes: How many more laughs could Farley have given us had he not passed away so early? My guess: Way more than Adam Sandler.
