Dangerfield and Pesci are amazing in this a real highlight of this film If I had to choose one was the browsing scene. The shot in the ass sequence at the end is also very funny. Dangerfields comedic struggle to pass through the test given from his mother is also very well done

Monty went from taking pictures of babies to owning a $10 million company… easy money.

typical silly goofy 80s movie where the humor is questionable and crosses a lot of moral and feminist lines, featuring a random boob shot for literally no reason! oh and joe pesci!
