What a classic. Rick Gassko (Tom Hanks), a catholic school bus driver, is ready to marry his upper crust girlfriend, thus his friends throw him a raging bachelor party. Her father disagrees with the whole marriage and is set to destroy the couple’s happy existence by throwing in the stereotypical blonde 1980’s exboyfriend to woo her back. Luckily, though, this movie goes easy on the love and heavy on the party, and we even get to see a donkey overdose.
It also goes light on the law.
1. The police shut the party down due to a noise complaint. This sends everyone on a wild chase through the city.
2. The movie ends with a wedding ceremony in which a “lawful wife” is declared by the officiant, who has “powers vested” in him by the state.
