Celtic Pride

DIRECTED BY: Tom DeCerchio

REVIEWED: 04-25-96

We should know by now that any movie including any past or present member of the Saturday Night Live cast will be a grave mistake, and Celtic Pride is no exception. This relentlessly unfunny comedy is the story of two pathetic buddies (Dan Ackroyd and Daniel Stern) who are so obsessed with "their" team, the Boston Celtics, that they bumble into a plan to kidnap the star player of the opposing team. Damon Wayans' good looks and smooth, comedic charm don't even matter here; the whole film is such a sad document of immature men doing stupid things for hazy reasons that nothing can save it.
