Kingpin (1996)
Funny movies are good for these trying times. Kingpin is a really funny movie. It’s from The guys who made Dumb and Dumber, yet it has more in common with Airplane! The Farrelly Bros. didn’t just bring their all with this, they threw in the kitchen sink. Kingpin is a laugh a minute kind of movie, and though so much time has gone by, the laughs still stick. It’s high caliber, low-brow comedy, as the Farrelly Bros. so wonderfully mastered. It’s also home to one of the all time greatest Bill Murray performances. Ernie McCracken is the Ron Burgundy of bowling, and i wouldn’t have mind seeing his spin-off. It would have been a lot better than what they just recently did with The Jesus from The Big Lebowski. Yikes. 4 out of 5 Stars.
