Terrific Movie with fantastic entertaining character

Created: 26/04/08
Great Movie and if you like Dan's Movies you will love this one.
Dan is Professor Clifford and jogging one day a Pimp name Smooth along with his four beautiful prostitutes are stop at a stop signal as Clifford continues to jog in place. This Pimp in trouble with Big Mama and owe her a grand sum of money. Smooth need a sucker/a fall guy; you guess it it's Clifford. Accidently Smooth and the girl see Cliffford at a fancy resturant and invite him over. Between all the drinkings, drugs (which Clifford had no ideal what is happening)and the girls to distract him; Smooth makes him a partner. Of course Smooth the character he is skip town leaving Clifford to hold the fort down.

Clifford's father's University is broke and waiting for a large donation to help the nearly bankrupt school. Clifford must protect the business both the girls and obtain the donation for the school. Dan run amok in a disguise and his character requires a change of vocal sound; add the right touch to conceal his true identity. Clifford's new friends (the girls) including Fran Drescher (from the TV Program The Nanny) all manages to escapes Big Mom and Clifford gets the Donation for the University and married the Nanny Fran all well ends well.

This movie is silly, entertaining, whimsical movie with great characters and a terrific story to tell. I saw this movies many, many years ago and it still gives me the same reaction of laughter and enjoyment. A must see so either purchase (you can see it over and over again, each time the same enjoyment) or rent it. I rather buy it here on Ebay!!!
