Disorderlies (1987)

This 1987 comedy stars The Fat Boys, Ralph Bellamy and Anthony Geary. This focuses on Mark, Kool and Buffy (The Fat Boys), 3 pals from Brooklyn who have fun and get into mischief. Soon, they're hired to be the new orderlies of wealthy, ill man, Albert (Bellamy) by his despicable nephew, Winslow (Geary) who seeks his fortune. The boys get off to a bit of rough start, but Albert eventually befriends them and learns of Winslow's plans. I grew up watching this and always thought it was amusing. The Fat Boys are aren't bad in it, but somewhat cheesy and were basically like "The 3 Stooges" with their slapstick humor. I recommend this.

As you may know, comedy is the most difficult art form of all. To make people laugh, all people, young, old, white, Asian or black, male and female, is truly the finest art form. This movie pulls it off. You have some over weight young black orderlies who can not only laugh at themselves, but make you laugh with every line, every nuance and subtle gesture they conjure up in this movie. Ralph Bellamy plays the consummate straight guy and doesn't miss a beat, esp. at his age. My 15 year old son watched it once and we split our sides laughing. My son is 30 now and he asked me if I wanted to watch that movie with him again. "Yeah" I said. We could use more laughs. We could use more young actor/comedians, especially ones from our own minority groups here in the good ol' USA. This is a funny movie and its probably more hilarious the second time around.

This movie was okay. It was kind of a slapstick feature. There wasn't any good acting, because, remember, these were the fat boys. Not real actors. So it was an okay movie, but just remember to dumb it down... This movie was okay. It was kind of a slapstick feature. There wasn't any good acting, because, remember, these were the fat boys.

As the Fat Boys hip-hop career was nearly coming to an end they decide to star in a silly movie,about being a care-taker of a rich elderly white man. The movie was slapstick and remind you of a modern day Three Stooges. Some parts of this movie was romantic and the rest was downright stupid. I don't know what was Michael Schultz thinking when he created this movie. He did a whole lot better in recent years before this one with "Berry Gordy's Last Dragon and Krush Groove." This movie was a waste of time and I guess this movie was suppose to create some promising actors in the Fat Boys. But their talent didn't appeal to many audiences and they just vanished away from the entertainment seen all together.
