Trailer Unavailable













     A Night at the Roxbury
1998  PG-13  COMEDY  1h 22min
CAST— Will Ferrell, Chris Kattan, Molly Shannon, Dan Hadaya, Loni Anderson, Elisa Donovan, Gigi Rice, Richard Grieco, Dwayne Hickman, Colin Quinn, Michael Clark Duncan
MUSIC— David Kitay  DIRECTOR— John Fortenberry  BASED ON— Characters appearing on Saturday Night Live (television)

     The Butabi brothers, those clueless head-bopping club-hoppers from Saturday Night Live have actually starred in their own movie. Seriously. Yeah, the ones who do exactly the same thing in every single SNL sketch: dance at the bar and try to pick up women who have the good sense to stay away from them. In the film, the brothers desperately want to get into the hottest club in LA, The Roxbury. After achieving this goal they soon make plans to open their own club, but they have no money. So they lay their plans on the owner of The Roxbury in hopes of becoming partners. The film has very little to recommend it, other than a few minimal laughs. Honestly, it feels like an SNL sketch that never ends.
OUR RATING— * ½
