Video Review

Son-In-Law (1994)

EW's GRADE
F

Details Movie Rated: PG-13; Genre: Comedy; With: Pauly Shore

So deeply lame is Pauly Shore's whiny baby-freak shtick that he doesn't qualify as a ''comedian'' — he's merely that bane of the Television Age, a ''personality.'' Even if he doesn't make your flesh shimmy in revulsion, Shore's latest feature, Son-In-Law, is a mirthless embarrassment in which he follows college girlfriend Carla Gugino back to the farm and wins her family over to the cause of his mewling, unfocused idiocy. God, I miss Pee-wee Herman.
