Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star

i got this movie for my birthday and watched it tonight it was hilarious its about former childsar dickie roberts (david spade) he wants to reach high fame again as he did as a child but he's washed up and isint real enough when he additions for a part in a rob renermovie but rob says he isint a real human he never got to live a real childhood so he hires a family to take him on to live his childhood now. He joins a family with a mother grace, 2 kids sam and sally and a father who pays little attention to his kids and only hires dickie for his pleasure to be in a commercial. The kids call him stranger danger but they grow to really like him. He does some crazy things dye his nautrally blonde hair brown, make himself a water bed, ride in a baby stroler and offer the kids beer but it pays off the family puts on a fake christmas for him so he can pretend to get a bike he gets to be in the film. But also he falls in love with grace cuz her husbend ran off with dickie's ex girlfriend. When grace has no money at christmas for gifts there dickie is and he bought a lot of gifts. A really good movie and dont shut it off to fast before the credits cuz former childstars sing durring the credits. One of the funniest movies ever seen!

Just as I remembered

There's something about David Spade's quirky personality that makes me laugh the entire movie. My wife laughs more at me than at the movie because of how ridiculous I act during this movie, but I like to pull it out a few times a year for a good laugh.

I had to use that for the title. OMG I saw this the first time I beyond loved it! I had to buy it. It is such a nice come back for all the child actors that are left out there. It is a very sweet and touching story. The ending of the movie is a must watch. A lesson he learns can apply to all. The extra video song with the former child actors is hilarious! I am not much of a David Spade fan, but he blows me away with his Dickie character. Really Really Worth Watching

Funny , Happy with

This is one of my go-to feel-good movies. Whenever I want to laugh and be uplifted I watch this movie. There are so many great one-liners in here and awesome cameo appearances by so many stars.

David Spade is so funny! LOVE this movie!!! Dickie Roberts such a great character and tells the gritty story of how child stars might not always get the happy ending after their show or stardom ends when they reach adulthood.

Great movie, the dvd was in good shape but the ad and the box said full screen and when i sent it my bff it was widescreen....but she was ok with that or i would have sent it back

This movie was my life when I was a kid. I’ve been meaning to buy it for a long while and finally did. It was in perfect condition and a great price!

perfect condition exactly how it was described

The delivery was extremely quick. Totally happy with the purchase. This is a Christmas gift so we haven't watched the movie although I expect it will be good quality.
