The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)

The fast-paced and often seamy world of rock 'n' roll is his beat, but even detective Ford Fairlane (Andrew Dice Clay) is stunned when the king of shock-jocks, Johnny Crunch (Gilbert Gottfried), is electrocuted on the air. After all, Crunch was his only paying client! Crunch had hired Ford to track down a mysterious teenage groupie name Zuzu Petals - a search which quickly finds Ford tangled up, and trading insults, with a ruthless record executive (Wayne Newton) and merciless hit man (Robert Englund).

The Dice Definitely Rolled A Seven With This One

Not just a lame storyline that is easy to figure out with low budget, bad actors - or high budget, bad actors - and your typical sophomoric humor. This movie ROCKS. Well, maybe it does have your typical sophomoric humor, but it is very funny, no matter how many time you watch it. A lot of big name actors have big and not so big parts which add to the movie.

For Ford, being a rock and roll detective is not just a job, it is an adventure. Fun for the whole family. Just joking. June 30, 2008

B0OTY TlME! B0OTY TlME! ACROSS THE USA!!!

They should have called this movie, ''The Adventures 0f Ford Failure''. This movie stunk to high heaven. The only redeeming value this movie had was Gilbert Gottrfied's cameo. Why he wasn't nominated for an 0scar is a crime that not even Ford Fairlane himself can solve. But l'm sure those who want that crime solved would avoid hiring Ford Fairlane.

Booty time! Booty time! Across the USA!!! April 28, 2008

We've seen this movie a number of times before - I just didn't think I could get it in DVD. It's a riot! Typical Dice! A lot of fun. December 28, 2007

pretty entertaining

This is a pretty entertaining movie, as I recall, but not exactly super hilarious or super clever. At this point in his career, the Diceman had become very well known, and I get the feeling that this was somewhat of a standard movie to cash in on that notoriety. Not necessarily as funny or as shocking as some of his stand-up material, but still worth a look, partly because it's a slice of American pop culture history.
