Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This show is just silly. So very silly.It has a great cast, some silly action AND clowning around aside, this is seriously funny.There's just not much else to say about this flick. It is 100% about the interaction between Belushi and Ritter. However, being that limited in scope, it is only watchable every 5 - 7 years.

Well, this was the 2nd time I saw "Real men" (2015) and I still remembered some scenes since 25 years ago.This is a movie with a naive ridiculous feel. Not so much as let's say "Airplane!" but you can still ...shoot people with your bare fingers! The premise is not so naive though. It poses a legitimate question that all the governments out there should consider. Do you want the Good package or the Big gun? Unfortunately they answer that, always with the latter. No one truly cares about the environment and the well being of people. They all want the Big gun. The raw power to control things.James Belushi and the late John Ritter are really good in this. There are some unexpected laughs (like in the "Dad" scene) but overall the scripted jokes are somehow weak with todays standards.It is a cheap looking movie. Nothing to write home about, but the 2 leads who aren't break character throughout the movie are make it worth watching.

James Belushi and John Ritter star in this 1987 action-comedy. A CIA agent, Nick (Belushi) is sent on a dangerous mission to work with insurance agent, Bob (Ritter) who looks exactly like an agent that was killed. They have to get to Washington D.C. by Friday for an exchange with UFOs. They have a map guiding them and a glass to fill with water for the space men. Along the way they meet weird women, face Russian agents and other agents dressed as clowns. Nick and Bob get off on a bit of a rough start, but become friends who work well with each other. I've always liked this film and James and John were great together. I recommend this good 80's action-comedy.

I am not sure this movie made it to the theaters or not back in the day, I only know it used to come on quite often on HBO and I would usually watch it when it did come on. It was not super great or anything, but it was a rather funny comedy that passed the time quite nicely. The story has a man that is an everyday kind of fellow, thrust into the middle of a very strange government plot involving aliens and spies. The reason he is thrust into this role is that he looks like the man that was supposed to receive a package from aliens, and he is the only one they would apparently give it to. That man is shot at the beginning of the film, thus this replacement is recruited against his will. A super type spy is sent in to use him to get the package from the aliens and he is also told to encourage the guy and make him feel he is doing great. There are chases and stuff like that, attacks of clowns and during the course of the film the bumbling everyman does get good. He is played by the late John Ritter, and though I am not really much of a fan of his, he does a particularly good job as the everyman being a bit of a unwilling participant at first, but getting better as time goes on. Jim Belushi plays the super spy, he does not look the part, but he does an okay job with the role. I am not going to blame him for being cast in a role more fitting for someone more polished looking. As for the rest of the cast, a treasure trove of virtual unknown stars, thankfully though the movie focuses on Ritter and Belushi's characters and the carry the film quite well.
