«Underrated movie - one for the collection»
There are so few 'Thanksgiving movies' available. This is one that was overlooked in the theaters. The critics bad mouthed it. It did not fair well at the box office overall. The problem is - all the bad press wasn't deserved.
The movie is funny. Ed O-Neill is not Al Bundy in this movie. He is still something of a bumbler, but he is definitely a different character overall. Ethan Randall, in one of his earliest appearances, is convincing as the rich brat that is ticked off at the world. Put the two of them together - you get 'Dutch'.
As with most John Hughes movies of the era, it has a touchy ending, but it plays in well with the story. For the low price of the movie, you can't go wrong. You will end up with a great Thanksgiving themed movie that deserves to be in your holiday (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas) movie collection.

«Dutch»
I love this movie! A young boy living at a Prep School does not want to go home to his Mother for Thanksgiving, so Dutch..the Mother's boyfriend goes to get the kid. The laughs are frequent as the two try to get along and make it home for Thanksgiving.
