This is How Movies Should Be Made
Dreadfully Boring
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
View MoreOkay, so this is not The Dick Van Dyke Show, but it is a decent sitcom. And that's what I loved most, this was a real sitcom. No drama or social commentary in any of the Dave's World episodes. They were just funny and stupid. This is far overdue for DVD.... As for the Dave Barry comparison. Dave's an excellent writer, I have all of his books. But, that doesn't mean his story on film would be very entertaining. Harry Anderson and Patrick Warburton gave standout performances - enough so that I remember them in roles other than Night Court and Seinfeld, respectively. Harry captured Dave probably better than anyone else could. I was very disappointed when this was canceled.
View MoreWith some good guffaws tossed in here and there, "Dave's World" just doesn't hold a candle to real-life Barry's words of wisdom. Harry Anderson does the best with what he's got, but even that couldn't save this sinking ship.Worth a view or two, but I'd rather read Dave Barry's real columns.Grade: C
View More"Dave's World" didn't have much to do with its source material, the work of Pulitzer-winning columnist Dave Barry, whose columns, unlike the series, rarely contain so much sap that people have to blow their noses with a pancake. The poker-table banter between Shel, Kenny and Dave and Patrick Warburton's occasional appearances usually provided a chuckle. Generally speaking, this show strained to stay within its family-fare pretext. Maybe this had to do with the show being broadcast on CBS, which targets an older viewer demographic. Still, it suffices for killing a spare half hour.
View MoreDave is a man that likes to take it easy, so his weekly sport column is always handed in late. Mostly they sit in the livingroom drinking beer and playing cards. Dave, his wife, their kids, Sheldon and Kenny. Kenny is Daves boss, and he is always thinking about women. Sheldon is a successfull doctor who is divorced, and a bit tense. Harry Anderson is ok, and Patrick Warburton drops by from time to time. He is just like he is in Seinfeld. This show is great when you have just woke up Sunday morning. Senseless.
