Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. I love getting in the "way back machine" and seeing Rick Moranis movies, and I'm not a big fan of Tom Arnold, but he nails this big dumb bully role. There is a lot of establishing information, and they work really hard to express a parallel in ... parents vs children and projecting a "break the cycle" morale on the story, but most of the movie is just Tom being a jerk to Rick. It's almost a Tom and Jerry movie. I honestly spent a lot of the movie trying understand why Tom wasn't under arrest. It's not the best movie, but it's reliably good. If you're feeling an urge for a late 90's movie and this looks interesting, give it a shot.
