Product Description:
What matters most in life eh? Hockey donuts and beer? A slab of back bacon? And did we mention beer? At least that's what matters most to Bob (Rick Moranis) and Doug (Dave Thomas) McKenzie when they bring the goofy lunacy of SCTV's 'The Great White North' to the great wide movie indoors.Running Time: 90 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/SLAPSTICK UPC: 012569519923 Manufacturer No: 65199
Amazon.com:
Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis created their popular toque-wearing, beer-swigging 'Great White North' hosers Bob and Doug McKenzie on the great TV comedy show SCTV to fulfill a Canadian broadcasting regulation that required Canadian shows to have a certain amount of 'Canadian content.' Bob and Doug became so popular that they made a hit record (Take Off, with Geddy Lee, nasalist with the Canadian rock band Rush) and this Major Motion Picture--filmed in 'Hoserama.' Bob and Doug are the Cheech and Chong of beer, so the plot involves the boys's attempt to scam a free case of Elsinore beer from the brewery, which is run by a mad scientist Brewmeister Smith (Max von Sydow), who wants to rule the world, like all mad scientists do. Strange Brew's intoxicating blend of hops and malt--er ... cleverness and silliness--earned it a loyal and well-deserved cult following. --Jim Emerson

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Funny!
A classic! We laugh so much every time we watch this movie!! These guys are so funny!
Rating: - Funny Movie
I have always loved this movie so I am glad it came out in DVD format.
Rating: - Only the Greatest Movie of ALL time. Even better than Charelton Heston in The Omega Man!
I can't say enough about this movie. Move over Citizen Kane, Casablanca and Escape from New York. This film has it all. A must have classic that I have watched with my son every year during the holidays since he was one. Granted my wife and daughters don't quite get it, but that's their own problem. If you are a knot-head this is for you. Grab a jelly, a square of beer and enjoy.
Rating:  - Love this movie
It's corny, but a really fun movie. Warning, it may have you saying "eh" and "take off hoser."
Rating: - Stupid humor at its best
Awesome 80's stupidity from Bob and Doug. The story line of Hamlet amidst a sea of beer!
Enjoy it for what it is.
