A very bad movie

Posted : 13 years, 3 months ago on 13 January 2011 01:57

To be honest, it has been a while since I have watched this movie but since it is probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen, I don’t think I will ever re-watch it ever again. In fact, if I recall it correctly, I’m pretty sure I even saw the damned thing in the movie theater when it was released… I mean, back then, I must have been 12 or 13 years old, I was just a kid when I saw this one and, after seeing the trailer, I was rather oblivious and I thought it could be a fun watch. Well, it was a huge mistake, that’s for sure. Basically, thanks to this movie, I discovered that you could watch a comedy without a single laugh throughout the whole thing and it was quite an experience. Anyway, I believe that Sylvester Stallone has made some bad movies in his career but it is easily the worst one (even Stallone himself went on record saying that it was the worst film he has ever done). To conclude, I don’t see any reasons why you should watch this flick and you should just avoid it instead of wasting you time with this crap.

Pathetically entertaining.

"It was so cute, when he was 6 years old he walked into the kitchen and said "Mommy! My peepee's stuck in my zipper!""

It completely pains me to say this, but Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot is nowhere near as horrible as some people made it out to be. I saw it for Stallone's presence in the cast and didn't expect much from the tame PG rating and...well...the title as well as the sickening poster.

Stallone plays a police sergeant named Joe Bromowski; he's tough, cool and enjoys his insignificant existence. But his mother Tutti (Getty) arrives in town to visit her only son Joe. For Joe, this is a true nightmare; he unknowingly embarrasses him at every opportunity, interferes with his life as a bachelor, starts tidying up his house and doing the laundry.

When Tutti witnesses a murder she wants to use all her knowledge to the advantage of her son, hoping to get him promoted.

Stallone's performance (which earned a Razzie award for 'Worst Actor') contains more lines of dialogue than you're ever likely to hear in one sitting. And here's the weird part: he's actually understandable to an extent. Comedy isn't his thing, nor will it ever be, but his performance isn't too bad. As for Estelle Getty...well, she's just playing an overprotective mother. Do you expect this to be Oscar material? Her facial expressions at times are enough to warrant a Razzie.

The violence is tame throughout, which is a real shame because with some 'tough guy' scenes mixed in there it could've made an okay action flick. Instead we're stuck with this.

There are a few scenes that are very funny, but other scenes are embarrassing and could make one cringe (especially when the mother blows the smoke from the barrel of a gun after firing). Stallone's mum should've shot...the screenwriter, that is.

I have to ask the question, is this Sly Stallone's answer to Arnold Schwarzenegger's Kindergarten Cop? If not for Golden Girl Estelle Getty's humor, this movie would have tanked.
