I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

The acting in this movie is really good.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

There are not a lot of words to describe the strange, yet hilarious movie that is UHF. Weird Al is one of my favorite musical talents, and this movie feels like one of his songs with a beginning, a climax, and a conclusion. This movie knows it's cheesy so it goes full force on being a crazy, zany experience for the audience. My favorite scene in the movie is definitely "Town Talk with George Newman". Probably because of "Lesbian Nazi Hookers captured by UFO's and forced into weight-loss programs. This week on Town Talk." It's such a surreal scene because it just cuts from another scene to that like you should've expected it.In conclusion, if you a fan of the 80's or Weird Al, this movie is a must see!

Weird Al is funny. He's also smart and generally respectful to audiences of all ages. Yet he succeeds in light cynicism aimed at those things that annoy us-like commercials, cheesy TV shows and exaggerated scenes in movies. Back in those days, we still had two band selections on the TV and VHF was where all the good programming was. UHF had a lot of channels but only a few were used and people did not switch to UHF often unless they wanted to watch a community channel, church service, foreign language show or some other oddity. You need to understand this before you watch the movie so ask someone older if you are young. Given that, it is a pretty funny idea for a movie and the mock commercials and TV shows are a laugh. True to name, Al finds lots of weird people to play parts in the movie and work with him-some with a touch of late 80's nerdity about them as well. It had a few stretches-like I cannot see a whole bar captivated by a low IQ person lecturing the value of character over a mop. But heck, just like a bum who asks you for change and then gives you back an equal amount of dollars to the coins you gave him, UHF will return your money's worth.

Like a living, breathing Weird Al album, this has plenty of highs and lows. I can think of a dozen reasons to hate this movie, but it still inexplicably holds a warm place in my heart. The paper-thin plot, for example, is really only there to serve as a vehicle from one skit or song to the next, like the host of a feature-length variety show. Al must have mingled with the right circles on the comedy scene, though, because an odd blend of before-they-weres fill out UHF's cast: Fran Drescher, Victoria Jackson and an especially hyperactive, scene-stealing Michael Richards would all go on to bigger things later in life. It's a cult comedy in the same vein as The Kentucky Fried Movie, in that it does its thing without a care in the world, but outside of a few outstanding, timeless gags and a huge spoonful of heart, it's not really all that good.
