Gone Fishin' (1997)

Synopsis: Two childhood friends go out every year fishing together on their vacation. This year they are competing in a tournament. The problem is that they are chronically disaster-prone. They cross paths with a criminal who marries widows and robs them (and has committed one murder). He steals their car and from then on the vacationing duo and the criminal will alternately chase each other.

Appraisal: I have watched this without subtitles and thus missed a few lines of dialog. It is a comedy of modest ambitions which delivers a bland yet congenial humor and some good performances (especially the central pair and the boat salesman).

Rating: 39
