I don't understand why this is lauded as such a classic. I don't deny that there are a couple of short segments that made me chuckle, but they were few and far between. It's supposed to be a movie, but it feels like a clip show. The many subplots everyone goes on about are incoherent and go nowhere, the main character is unengaging, supporting characters kind of show up and then disappear or switch personalities, and too many of the gags are recycled jokes. Even Ramis, the directer, has said he "can barely watch it. All I see are a bunch of compromises and things that could have been better". It's not the worst movie i've seen, but i'm getting really sick of seeing it on top 10 lists.
