"Oh, this your wife, huh? A lovely lady. Hey baby, you must've been something before electricity." – Al Czervik

Why watch this? It's an all-star cast, but Mr. Dangerfield steals every scene.

Plot Summary: At its center is a feud between two rich fellows: One an uptight snob, the other an easy-going slob. Their dislike for one another comes to a head, with all to be settled in a single round of golf at the country club. Meanwhile, the club's deranged groundskeeper prepares to finally blow up a pesky gopher who has been destroying the course.

Dad's Preview: This raunchy comedy launched the movie careers of Chase and Murray, and it made Rodney Dangerfield a household name. Every scene is a mini-SNL-skit about golf. The rest is horny teens, Chevy's dry wit and a water-logged Baby Ruth bar. This iconic comedy classic sets the course record for laughs.
