MAN OF THE HOUSE

title: MAN OF THE HOUSE
year: 1995
cast: Chevy Chase, Farrah Fawcett, Jonathan Taylor Thomas
rating: *1/2

If there's ever a debate on the most annoying kid in a live-action Disney film, it would be Jonathan Taylor Thomas as a whining, politically-correct punk making his new step-dad... Or rather, his mother's newly moved-in boyfriend's life a complete hell. Chevy Chase, stiff and unfunny, is a lawyer trying his best to deal with this insufferable jerk by learning the right ways to recycle, not sleeping with girlfriend Farrah Fawcett, and last but not least, joining The Indian Guides: becoming a complete ass and still not winning-over his hopeful future son. There's a side-story about mobster's trying to kill Chase, which eventually connects on a weekend camping trip where predictable bonding occurs. If you don't mind cringing for ninety-minutes straight, this is for you.
