Good One!

This is one of my wife and I's favorites. This is one of those movies that when you move and you pack up all of your stuff, you make sure you can find it so that you've got a "safe one" to watch when you can't find anything.
I saw this for the first time as a second run movie and my parents kept raving about it. I reluctantly agreed to watch it and I wasn't disappointed at all. All you had to do is say it was the same guys that put together Raising Arizona and I would have been on board, sheesh! Having only visited the Midwest and never lived there I cannot personally vouch for all of the clichÃ©s in this film but some of it was so funny. I always get a laugh out of the "Ya's" in this movie when the two ladies are being interviewed.
William H Macy was very convincing as a corrupt auto salesman. I've met too many like his character and it's just funny to see that on the big screen, especially the "I'm just gonna go check with my boss" bit. Funny stuff!
