What takes this film from a good comedy to a borderline all time classic is Christopher McDonald’s larger than life villain Shooter McGavin, every time he’s on screen the film just comes alive.
Great comedic performance
Also, Apollo Creed and Ben Stiller's weirdo character.
shareYes...my brother and I still quote some of Shooter's lines almost 30 years later! 😃
Someone else who helped make the movie was Richard Kiel as Mr. Larson. He's really not in the movie all that much, but he steals every single scene he's in. I still crack up at his lines as well.
I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast!
shareHe'll get that jacket one day.
shareWhat is funny is I thought Shooter McGavin was a pretty tame villain who didn't seem to be all that bad, at least compared to many other villains in comedy films, I agree he was great in every scene he was in, you never know what to expect out of him.
