Rating: 2/5 -- Tedious and unfocused...the contrivance in this forgettable comedy is inexplicably unbearable

In its worst moments, Houseguest becomes a struggle in which a very human comedian fights to project his personality over the director's technological muddle. But the good news is that Sinbad wins.

Rating: 1/5 -- A film that lacks solid construction from the ground up, something that can't be "fixed in the editing," I'm afraid. Full Review

Product Description:

A charming ghetto guy on the run from loan sharks poses as a long-lost friend of a suburban lawyer in this wacky comic romp. After scamming his way into the house, he turns the WASP family upside down, and teaches them how to have fun again.

Description by Buena Vista Home Entertainment.:

Houseguest
Get ready for riotous laughs as funnymen Sinbad (THE SINBAD SHOW) and Phil Hartman (SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, NEWSRADIO) team up in this outrageous comedy hit! Sinbad is Kevin Franklin, a get-rich-quick con man who escapes the mob by impersonating the long-lost friend of an uptight businessman (Hartman) -- and moving in with his family! Soon this wily con artist is struggling to find out who he's pretending to be ... a wine expert, a golfer, or even a dentist! But when the family starts to see through his act, and the mob catches on to his scam, Kevin finds his escapade as a "houseguest" is suddenly much more than he bargained for!
