7 on a scale of 10

Rating: 7/10 (27 November 1999)

This movie is not as funny as we are to supposed to assume. It has weaker special effects than we are led to believe. And, it has a story line that fails to hold up under scrutiny.
Nevertheless, it was entertaining. Not overly so, but for an hour and a half (Thank God it wasn't longer.), it was reasonably enjoyable. This is a classic movie that I'm glad I saw - so that I can say I saw it - but would never watch again, despite having it on tape.
