John Candy has one of his finest opportunities in this film by John Hughes (The Breakfast Club) about a perpetual screw-up (Candy) who gets his act together enough to watch over his brother's kids effectively. The late actor scores big points resurrecting elements of his more decadent persona from SCTV days, but he also has some persuasively touching, sentimental moments. Hughes's direction is not as focused as it was only a few years before, but there's no mistaking his touch. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, production notes, biographies, Dolby sound, optional Spanish and French soundtracks. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - Good old fashioned fun and morals!!
Uncle Buck. John Candy. Family fun and entertainment that doesn't contain profanity with every other word. How fantastic!! Loved it way back when and appreciate it even more now!!
Rating:  - Some of John's best work
Uncle Buck should be considered a classic. This is a very funny film and one that was done without a lot of swearing (not that I mind the occasional use of Colorful Metaphors).
