2.In this whopper of a fish tale, a pair of bumbling best friends on a doomed fishing trip in the Everglades manage not to catch a single one of the swamp's lunker bass--but in their angling escapades they do accidentally land a dangerous criminal! Willie Nelson cameos as the boys' fishing pro guru.

3.The disastrous Gone Fishin' has been called "the Ishtar of the 90s", but that's giving it too much credit. Danny Glover and Joe Pesci (who could have used their Lethal Weapon series buddy Mel Gibson in here) star as slow-witted friends who take their dream fishing vacation in the Florida Everglades and end up having a series of disasters. Trouble is, director Christopher Cain can't get a handle on any of the comedy essentials for a project such as this. The result is a badly timed, badly toned, unfunny movie wasting a lot of great talent across the board. --Tom Keogh
