It's A Happy Memory For Alot of Baby Boomers, 9 DECEMBER 2003
Author: westegg from New York

Sure, I know this film is not a great comedy, or even a good one. But for alot of us aging boomers this film is a sweet memory. It recalls a more innocent time in movies, and an appreciation for the Stooges in their autumnal years. And what's wrong with dancing Martians?
