Don't listen to the negative reviews

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Gutsycurene
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Humaira Grant
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Watching this picture in 2003 l didn't pay attention carefully as usually l do,but in this second look on DVD l found it really amuzing,all characters are dumb or at least unfortunate,this comedy is a sort of screwball,driven crazy every single multi colors and odds characters.all them has their fuuny moments although all mess it's a plenty of gags and jokes quote some famous previous movies,Sonnenfeld applying a smart non stoping speed since the beginning given us no chance to sleeping,just to consider the character Puggy was out of tune!!!ResumeFirst watch: 2003 / How many: 2 / Source: Cable TV-DVD / Rating: 7

i just love this movie, i laughed from the beginning till the end; i really don't understand why he made such a poor audience on the big screen! these Americans don't know to appreciate a good comedy! the cast was great, everyone of them; the script is good, the directing also; my favorite character was Dennis Farina's; as a matter of fact, i love Barry Sonnenfeld movies, in general, i really think that he is a great director and big trouble is one of the funniest comedy ever! i think that Zooey Deschanel was spot on and Tim Allen was very funny too; and the movie was also a very good start on their careers for Sofia Vergara and Ben Foster; LOVED IT!

Based on Dave Barry's novel, "Big Trouble," star Tim Allen (television's "Home Improvement") as a former Pulitzer Prize winning reporter on the Miami Herald (where Barry has been a reporter for years) who has seen his luck run dry. Now working for an advertising firm, Elliot Arnold (Allen) is having father-son problems with his offspring, Matt, (Ben Foster of "Get Over It"), is single, and having problems producing a successful advertising campaign.Just like an old Marx Brothers film, the plot is there only to set in motion the quick-witted dialogue and interaction between the characters. I have enjoyed both of Dave Barry's humor novels(this and "Tricky Business"). They made me laugh out loud as did this movie. I think it captures the spirit of the book perfectly. For those that have laughed at Dennis Farina from his roles in "Get Shorty and even "Snatch," he has never been funnier as a hit man who encounters unexpected roadblocks (literally) on his trip to do a quick sniper job. Tom Sizemore is also excellent as the dumbest crook you'll ever see. Sonnenfeld's touch and a good soundtrack contribute to this madcap misadventure where a hallucinogenic toad, a sub-compact car, and a 'garbage disposal' bomb make for an outrageous race to save a corporate embezzler's step-daughter. I find the film funny without being too silly (a common complaint for other Hollywood parodies) and although not a classic but an entertaining show.Overall rating: 7 out of 10.

This Tim Allen vehicle is a fun ride. If you're looking for Pearls of Wisdom, you're in the wrong place. If you're looking for a movie that pokes good clean fun at some of the issues of today, while making you laugh, you're in the right place.Grab a box of Goobers, a large popcorn with extra butter, a non-diet drink and set your slightly big butt in a comfortable seat. When you suspend your disbelief, also forget about your diet, cholesterol problems and life's little worries. Just let everything go and enjoy everything that is going on in this FUN movie!It didn't win any Academy Awards, there are no life-affecting truths, it won't solve your real-life problems. However, this movie will let you relax and laugh without care. Take a break from real-life and get Happy!
