Plot Summary
SCTV alum Rick Moranis ("The Little Shop of Horrors," "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids") and Dave Thomas portray the classic Canadian beer-guzzling duo, the MacKenzie Brothers, as they try to stop a mad beer brewer from gaining control of the world. Co-starring Oscar and Golden Globe-nominee Max von Sydow ("The Exorcist") and Paul Dooley ("Breaking Away," "Runaway Bride"). Outrageous fun loosely based on Shakespeare's "Hamlet."

Rotten: The price of a ticket could buy enough beer for an experience at least as memorable as this one.
Customer Reviews
Take Off You Hoser!
That just says it all. This is one of the greatest movies to explore the bizarre world of Canadian culture. Hockey, beer, hockey, beer.......and so on. Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas give command preformances worthy of the Genie Awards's for Best Actors and Best Movie. Get it or take off eh!
A Classic Comedy
This movie is one of my all time favorite guilty pleasures. Makes no sense - but who cares. "The Power of the Force shall stop you Hosers!"
An 80's classic
This a true classic of the 80's. The search for beer has never been so serious.
