Nothing but Trouble Audience Reviews

VividSimon Simply Perfect
Dotbankey A lot of fun.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
crass_tha_fly_one Not often do I watch a movie I can't say one good thing about. This is that movie. I saw this on cable a few weeks back and at first wondered why I'd never heard of this movie as I like so bad they're good movies and the cast. This one is just bad though nothing here to like even the sfx make up is terrible even for the time. It plays as if they drive the movie but maybe giving them the credit of thinking about anything was too kind. Tupac is a random non threatening back up singer which may be the only interesting thing about this very horrible movie.
Claudio Carvalho In New York, the arrogant financial publisher Chris Thorne (Chevy Chase) travels in his BMW with his hot neighbor, the lawyer Diane Lightson (Demi Moore), and the inconvenient siblings Fausto Squiriniszu (Taylor Negron) and Renalda Squiriniszu (Bertila Damas) to Atlantic City for a lecture. The siblings asks to sight-see an old mining area and Chris makes a detour in New Jersey to the village of Valkenvania, Chris does not stop the car at a sign and are chased and arrested by officers Dennis Valkenheise (John Candy) and Miss Purdah (Valri Bromfield). They are brought to a bizarre mansion in a junkyard to the presence of Judge Alvin 'J.P' Valkenheise (Dan Aykroyd) that takes their IDs and locks them in a cell to be judged later. Then they are invited to have dinner with the judge and his family. The group tries to flee irritating the judge that imprisons Chris and Diane, while Fausto and Renalda are hunted down by Miss Purdah and Dennis. What will happen to Chris, Diane and the siblings?"Nothing But Trouble" is a bizarre black comedy by Dan Aykroyd that does not work very well despite the cast. The non-sense story is unpleasant and not funny and the unknown Taylor Negron is awful. In addition, the Aykroyd Brothers should have made research before writing bullshit. They would learn that Brazilians speak Portuguese, and not Spanish; the stereotyped typical Brazilian rhythm is "Samba" and not "Mambo" (from Cuba); Christ and Corcovado is the same place and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Nada Além de Problemas" ("Nothing but Trouble")
Michael Gosser I hadn't seen this movie for probably 20 years. I'm a big fan of John Candy and Chevy Chase from the late 80s/early 90s. I'm not sure what triggered my brain to think about this specific movie, but something did, so i went online and bought the DVD. After the impulse purchase, I was having a little buyer's remorse from reading the overwhelming negative reviews on here. I was questioning my choice and asking myself "Was it not as funny as i remembered?!?" I just finished watching it and my post-purchase trepidation was a waste of time and energy. Was it the funniest thing on the planet? No. Did it entertain and make me chuckle. Yes. Was it worth the four bucks I paid for the DVD? HELL YES! The frequent Chevy Chase comments throughout the film alone are worth that. If you don't like it, God bless your little heart - and find something better to do than post negativity where none is needed :)
richspenc I'd give this horrible movie a zero if the rating numbers allowed me to. This movie was sickening, perverse, evil, and was total putrescense. I cannot believe the terrific, rave reviews for this movie. I also saw a number of other awful reviews too, so I guess my thoughts on this film are not alone."Nothing but trouble" was awful and sickening. It star Chevy Chase and Demi Moore who decide to go to Atlantic city for the weekend. Two other Spanish colleagues of thiers, but not quite friends, invite themselves againced Cheve's will to tag along last minute. On route, the guy colleague Randy, an arrogant jerk, persuades Cheve to take a shortcut and also to speed. Randy gets pressuring about it. "Come on man, you have a BMW, act like it!" Then they drive through a mysterious dusty looking ghost town. While passing through it, Cheve unknowingly runs a stop sign. Cop John Candy sees this and starts pursuing them. When he stops them, he orders them to follow him. They follow him into a very strange and erie area and up to an ancient looking dilapidated creepy old house. Inside the house is even creepier. It's filthy, cluttered, and mothball eaten with bizarre looking gadgets and accessories.Then they meet the judge. From this point onward in the film is nightmarishly horrible. The part of the film leading up to this point was not too good itself, but now the film turned dreadful, disgusting, and scary. But not scary in a good horror movie way. Scary in a sick, vomit inducing, mentally traumatizing way. The judge, played by Dan Aykroyd, is one sick, evil, disgusting thing. He sends many of his "defendants" onto a conveyor belt which carries them into a flesh stripping, murderous machine called bonestripper. The machine even shows bones being shot out of it after people were sucked into it. There are other freaky, scary traps in the house too. Then there's the creatures of the house itself. The Judge's nose looks very much like something you really don't want to see on a man's face, and that image itself has giving me nightmares and literally made me vomit, literally! Then the judge can also pull parts of his body off and on again. Then there's these two hideous freak fat creatures that live right outside the house in the dumpyard. Then there's the moat which is literally raw sewage. Then there's the hotdogs the judge forces his guests to eat for dinner. And the hot dogs are made of, well I'll just say too words. Bonestripper. Cannibalism. This was the most sickning, evil, revolting, perverse, horrible, dreadful movie I've ever seen.
