 Black Sheep (1996)
Black Sheep Quote: Black Sheep is a 1996 comedy film directed by Penelope Spheeris, written by Fred Wolf and starring comic duo Chris Farley and David Spade. The film portrays a political contest in which the candidate deals with unwanted, incompetent and publicly embarrassing help from his brother. The film also stars Tim Matheson, Christine Ebersole, and Gary Busey. Chris Owen and Wolf have cameo appearances, and Farley's real-life brothers Kevin and John appear as two security guards at an MTV Rock the Vote concert. The film grossed $32.3 million during its U.S. theatrical run.

 Re: Black Sheep (1996)
Agreed, Tommy Boy is obviously better, but that film in general had a better plot. This is still pretty funny at times and Gary Busey is hilarious. I'd give it a solid B, and I consider this the farewell film to Chris Farley. Didn't like anything he did after this except his cameo in Dirty Work.

Too bad we never got to enjoy any more Spade/Farley comedies.

 Re: Black Sheep (1996)
I just watched a video featuring some of Farley's best moments last night. I don't think anybody can make me laugh out loud as much as that man could.
