rating: 5 QuoteAnother Childhood Favorite!!!Quote
I always thought this was a really funny movie. It's cool how just a delivery man named Max gets mixed up by kids thinking he's a great scout leader and the F.B.I. think he killed someone. I always thought the part on the bridge was cool when Max is cutting the rope and he doesn't know there is a kid still on it! If you love comedy, you'll love BUSHWACKED!!! September 9, 2008

That this DVD rules. haha. It is so cheesey and so 90's style quality family cinema. Very "Home Alone"ish style (not just because of Stern) movie, and super predictable! Get into it! January 17, 2007

rating: 4 QuoteRandom CampingQuote
If I were to compare this movie to any other movie it would be to the more recent "Without A Paddle." Although the plots are quite different, both involve a wacky portrayal of camping in the wilderness... so wacky as to seem almost completely random or incoherent in terms of how people actually deal with real outdoor situations. Both movies are ridiculous in this regards, but they are comedies and so it's possible, although at times difficult, to forgive their extravagence in this regards. What holds the movies together are the characters, plots, and, most of all, the humor. "Bushwacked" wins out over "Without A Paddle" in the humor department. There are several routines that are over-the-top (almost reminiscent of something you might see in a "South Park" episode), and which might be considered inappropriate by some since child actors are involved, but I say to heck with the prudes. "Bushwacked" is a fun movie with lots of good gags and very nearly worth each and every one of the four stars I rated it at! September 9, 2006

A manic Daniel Stern stars in this entertaining, if derivative, "family" comedy. Stern stars as a delivery man who is set up for the murder of banker and while on the lam manages to be mistaken for a scout leader for a misguided troop of ranger scouts. The movie--and Stern---sometimes strain to make us laugh, but the movie does have some humorous moments, and Stern while certainly not in the league of such actors as Jim Carrey or Steve Martin, struggles hard to make us care about him and his predicament. Should entertain the family on a chilly autumn night. October 15, 2005

rating: 2 QuotePG at it's worstQuote
This movie though rated PG is full of sexual comments and profanity. Daniel Stern even says Fu------dge. Unless you want your children to be taught the birds and the bees from a deviant loser I would steer clear of this Movie. In one scene all the boys are peeing on a man below for an extended amount of time. The children in it are entertaining overall, but Stern is an overboard actor. He is obviously acting the whole time, nothing about it is natural. The children do a decent job acting.
If you are getting this for children, I would pick a different movie. I pitched my copy in the trash
