Please don't spend money on this.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Men At Work is a buddy comedy classic starring the Estesvez brothers. This was also written and directed by Emilio Estevez as well. Emilio and Charlie have great chemistry here and are garbage men who have aspirations of retiring and opening up a surf shop. The film is outrageous and filled with hilarious antics and great quotable one liners. Keith David was great in this and had great chemistry with Charlie and Emilio. A series of strange events unfold having our sanitation workers become heroes to the community. Men At Work is a great comedy and is great entertainment that holds up well and has a positive message about protecting the environment as well. Men At Work totally rocks and is a classic that I absolutely recommend, great movie!
i loved this movie this movie was different then some of the movie released on Zune and napster net-flex also it not that often you see a movie on TV with Charlie an Emilio beside other actor from previous movie like K2 with Mikael Behan and others great movie also Charlie sheen was raise a family on two an half men and he was taking a break form other movie type because it was long day on set just like any other actor and he needed it. also men at work even if it was old brought out the best in Charlie and Emilio and other cast members because they got payed and they were committee service to the movie bisnus and they were supporting there family's and created a legacy also most of the actor must have been diagnosed with a Diversability at one time at life in early childhood like me. also i wish Charlie and Emilio good luck in there next movie together and i love squeal's just like any other fan in the world. but those thing don't come easy but forgiveness's and positive walking and judgement is the key. also the government is alway make changes the effects others even family actor two and it with them the rest of there lifes and Charlie and Emilio base this on there move take steps back and forward in different part of men at work.
I found this movie to be very funny and very entertaining, then again if we are talking comedies I usually like stuff that is off the beaten track rather than the more popular mainstream fare. This movie follows the mundane lives of two trash pick up men trying to make their jobs a bit more interesting by doing stuff to get them selves in trouble and having to be placed under the watchful eye of a Vietnam vet. Well their lives are about to get more interesting as our two heroes as it were witness a man being a tad abusive to an attractive girl, well the two guys armed with a pellet gun take aim and fire, they later discover his dead body and must now try to figure out the mystery. Well it will not be a mystery to you or me as it is shown who is responsible. During their adventure they must infiltrate the beautiful girls place, deal with the crazy vet, kidnap a pizza guy and finally have a showdown at the dump. Great movie, very funny for me anyway. I like Charlie Sheen in comedies and he is very good and funny here as is Estevez though I will say Charlie had me laughing more. Though the Vietnam vet got the most laughs out of me when he started having flashbacks.
Two garbage men with dreams of opening a surf shop (Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez) stumble upon the dead body of a local politician in a drum -- a man who Sheen coincidentally shot the night before with a pellet gun. Not wanting to get blamed for the murder, the two men (along with another co-worker, played by Keith David) kidnap a pizza man, capture a girlfriend's heart and unravel corruption.When you watch this movie, it screams that it's from the cusp of the 80s and 90s. The poofy hair, the jeans and everything... and especially the women's outfits. That's a look that was hard to pull off much beyond the 1980s (and thankfully so). So if you like 80s films, especially ones with Charlie Sheen, this is one you'll like.There's not much more to say than that -- there's not a deep plot, huge jokes or intense action. It really relies on Sheen and Estevez (with Estevez's writing and directing) to make you interested. For some, like myself, that works. If not, you're going to think this is just another stupid movie that you see on a Saturday afternoon flipping through channels. I admit, it's not nearly as good as "The Chase".But hey, you have Keith David ("They Live"), one of the weirdest looking tough guys in Hollywood. You have two white rastafarians who have a running theme of encountering fecal matter in their locker. And you have the mysterious love affair between Sheen and the politician's girlfriend. Let me go on about that a moment.So this chick's boyfriend is murdered. She doesn't know he's dead yet, just thinks he's not home, but begins to be romantic with Sheen anyway (who she's just met under false pretenses). I understand the powers of the Sheen, but this chick really has loyalty issues. Kissing some dude you don't know when you're currently dating a powerful politician? Not much later, when she finds out who Sheen really is and finds out her boyfriend is a corpse, she has only minor issues with this (overcome in 30 seconds). I know it's a movie, but my goodness -- I know who not to trust.But yeah, that's it -- Sheen, Estevez and Keith David in an early 1990s movie. You may find that worthwhile. There's also a really good message in there about fighting corruption and pollution, as the politician is something like Paul Wellstone, but Estevez never wrote that deep of a script so it's really only a marginal issue and almost becomes more of a joke than anything.
