I've always enjoyed "Armed and Dangerous", it's one of my favorite John Candy films.
Dooley (John Candy) looses his job on the police force. He ends up getting a job with Guard Dog security. He's teamed up with a former lawyer Norman Kane (Eugene Levy). During their first night on the job, the warehouse that they are guarding gets robbed and both men get fined for the robbery happening on their watch. Dooley convinces Kane to work with him to investigate what is actually going on at Guard Dog security.
There's all kinds of interesting characters in this Police Academy style action comedy. Character actor Larry Hankin provides a lot of laughs. James Tolkien (Masters of the Universe, Back to the Future 1-3), Robert Loggia (Innocent Blood), Biron James, and Meg Ryan (Sleepless in Seattle, When Harry Met Sally) fill out the cast.
Armed and Dangerous is a good combination of silly comedy and action. The adult bookstore scene is a hoot! Fans of John Candy and Eugene Levy will find much to like about this film.
