Customer Reviews of UHF
Hilarious! Al Yankovic is a comic genius. The plot is your standard underdog-becomes-a-success story, but it is handled with so many funny bits that it doesn't matter. Featuring a pre-Seinfeld Michael Richards and a pre-Nanny Fran Drescher, UHF tells the story of a misunderstood man (Yankovic) and his television station, which his uncle won in a poker game. He proceeds to come up with some creative programs and must stop the giant corporation from shutting them down to destroy the competition. The best part, however, is the clips of shows that air on UHF Channel 62. Favorites include "Wheel of Fish" and "Conan the Librarian." The fantasy sequences are also very funny. <

>The movie is rated PG-13 but it's probably appropriate for anyone old enough to understand that no poodles were harmed in the making of this film (watch and you'll understand). There are no sex jokes and no graphic violence. Young kids may not get the pop culture references, but anyone can laugh at "Spatula City" (just watch the movie!). <

>This DVD has some of the best special features I've ever seen. A great commentary track (featuring Al), deleted scenes, a short "making-of," and music video for "UHF" make this hilarious movie well worth the ten bucks.
Waste of $10
The first ten minutes of this film are funny and seem promising. It seems to set the stage for a Hot Shots/Part Deux or Naked Gun type of slapstick comedy. The rest of the film is extremely boring just telling a mundane story about Weird Al trying to make a UHF station profitable and make something of his life. Don't be fooled, this is not funny like Weird Al's songs or music videos.

Promises the ridiculous, and delivers!
With Weird Al, you know what you're going to get...irreverence. When you hear he's starring in a movie, you expect it to be stupid, but done with talent. In UHF, Al does not fall short of the cultish B-movie grail he seeks. The DVD has outtakes and deleted scenes that are funny too. When you're snowed-in with your kids and ready for an afternoon of laughs, pop this one in the player.
