Wissenswertes
Rob Lowe played the supporting role of Tommy's stepbrother and is uncredited. The reason for this is because he wanted to be a "happy surprise" after the script shifted focus (the film was originally centered around the relationship between Tommy and Paul). Rob was playing tennis with Lorne Michaels, and Lorne told him that he was about to start "Tommy Boy" and that he was considering him to play Chris Farley's brother. He ended up taking the part as a favor for Lorne, since he was previously in Wayne's World (1992).

Patzer
Near the beginning of the movie, when Tommy Sr. takes the men onto the factory floor, he makes everyone put on a hard hat for safety. But as they walk through the factory, most of the employees are not even wearing hard hats.

Zitate
[saying it correctly]
Tommy: I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull's ass, but I'd rather take a butcher's word for it.

Crazy Credits
Rob Lowe is mentioned on video covers, but remains uncredited on-screen.

Alternative Versionen
The UK cinema version was cut by 9 secs for a PG certificate to edit shots of a woman pulling down her bikini and the sound of a man unzipping his flies. Later releases were uncut and upgraded to a 12 certificate.

8/10

One of the best comedies of the '90's

I saw this film knowing absolutely nothing about both it and its stars, Chris Farley and David Spade, and I have to say that this film is a comic classic. It is so stupid at times that it can only be hilarious. Farley is brilliant as the bumbling idiot who takes to the road with his dad's right hand man (the equally excellent Spade) to find the funding to save the families 'auto parts' business. Relax, put your brain on auto-pilot and soak up the fun. A great supporting cast features film favourites such as Brian Dennehy (Cocoon), Rob Lowe (Wayne's World) and Bo Derek ("10"). Highly recommended for a good laugh.
