DVD Reviews of Carpool
DVD Review: Top-notch Silliness
Summary: 4 Stars
Yes, it's a Tom Arnold movie, yes, it's 14 years old, but it holds up in its silliness. A fun family movie with strong kid characters who stand by the "bad" guy, the Tom Arnold character, who ends up carjacking a van with the kids and their strait-laced father (David Paymer), after stealing a bag of money from some bank robbers. There are many car chases -- the best is IN a shopping mall. Arnold is at his best in niceness as a carnival owner who needs money. This was also one of Rod Steiger's last movies, who really shines toward the end as a grumpy, wealthy store owner (who loves chocolate donuts -- is that a product link?). Above all this is one silly, silly-movie -- and that is good! (Oh, a good running joke for adults -- we keep hearing the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated" playing on the van's tape (!) deck.)

Description of Carpool
When a harried businessman and a hapless crook collide on the biggest day of both their careers the only road seems to lead straight to comic disaster. A workaholic advertising executive (David Paymer) is stuck driving the neighborhood carpool on the day of a make-or-break presentation. A down-on-his luck carnival owner (Tom Arnold) fleeing a bungled robbery takes the exec and his vanful of kids hostage and begins a comic day-long chase through the city streets where the two men learn some unexpected lessons and forge an unlikely friendship.Running Time: 93 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 085393183226Bestsellers in DVD
