The Wrong Guy (1997)
7/10
Canned ham, anyone?

For the first couple of minutes of this movie I thought it was going to be just a little too silly. Actually, it's just silly enough. Dave Foley is hysterical! His character, Nelson Hibbert, is a lot like Mr. Bean--not very bright, and not very nice, but charming in his own way. It's really a lot like a cartoon--situations and character traits are absurdly exaggerated. Great cameos by the Barenaked Ladies as a group of do-wop singing cops and Enrico Colantoni as a paranoid, conspiracy freak ("I could kill you right now with two teabags and a piece of waxed paper!"). A really fun film for anyone with a warped sense of humour!
