I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I remember years ago, when I was a pimply faced teenager, that my peers absolutely loved this movie, and a part of me went along with them. I had seen it advertised on the back of a comic book and since it was named after a car, and I wasn't all that interested in cars, I expected that this film was going to be boring and thought no more of it. However, of late it had been sitting at the back of my mind, and I managed to track it down and watch it again, if only for old times sake. Well, in short, it is really, really bad. Basically it is just one long Andrew Dice Clay comedy sketch. I can sort of understand why my peers may have liked the movie, particularly with the number of scantily clad women, and Fairlane's numerous sex jokes (including giving it a name), but sometimes we simply grow out of that phase of life. The other thing was that the acting was pretty atrocious, and really seemed to be stilted at times. Anyway, the film begins with the lead singer of a heavy metal band (which sounds a lot like Van Halen) dies on stage of an alleged drug overdose, while Ford, who happens to be a 'Rock and Roll Detective', in that his clients, and cases, all involve the music industry, is finishing off another case involving a stalker. Anyway, he is approached by an old friend to find a woman that he claims to be his daughter (but in reality is just a groupy), and proceeds to meet an untimely end. This film has all the typical tropes that you would expect from such a film, including the detective who is jealous because he is stuck with his dead-end job while Ford gets into all the cool clubs. However, the jokes end up wearing pretty thin after a while, and the ending has everything wound up quite conveniently, including bringing Ford and the girl that does like him together. Oh, and there is this kid that keeps on popping up, and it is only at the end that you find out why he seems to be always hanging around. As I mentioned, I'd never heard of Andrew Dice Clay before this film, and really didn't think much about him afterwards. It was only after digging up this film from the dusty archives that I realised that they were making a really big deal about the guy. It turned out that he happens to be a stand-up comedian, but since I'd never seen any of his acts, or heard any of his jokes, the name really went over my head. In fact I've noticed that he hasn't seemed to have made all that many other films either. I guess that really says everything about this film, and that it is basically just some crude excuse for a bunch of buys to giggle at jokes that aren't all that funny.

Ford "Mr. Rock n' Roll Detective" Fairlane is experiencing problems, and it's not with the opposite sex.All his clients pay him with drum sticks, koala bears, food processors and bicycle shorts, but not money. Another one of them is that all his employers that want him to find a girl named Zuzu Petals, are killed soon after speaking with Ford....Ever since hearing about this film twenty three years ago, I knew what to expect, and I always knew I'd enjoy it for its absurdity. But here in the UK, it vanished when it bombed in the US.It's never been on TV, and I trawled for years to get the DVD, and after finally seeing it, I got exactly what I expected from Renny Harlingen, and the biggest producer of the era, Joel Silver.Its loud, flashy, full of sporadic characters and big bangs, and even bigger hair, and then there's the star.He's the heart and soul of the film, and you really have to take to him, because he just tiptoes on that thin line between endearing or risible. Luckily for me, and the rest of the world, the trailer emphasises this so much, that it's not really a trailer, rather more of a warm up.Plot wise, it's your standard gumshoe fare, missing girl, suspect characters, and special guest stars as the villains. But the supporting characters are just so brilliant, they elevate an average story into something a little bonkers.Jokes are old, predictable, but still funny, and its your typical late eighties, early nineties actioner, big dumb, but lots of fun.Would make a great double bill with Hudson Hawk.

Lets be honest Renny Harlin is a rubbish director. I don't like any of his films, even his Die Hard sequel is the worst in the series. Cut throat Island gets him the most scorn ( its horrible) but that is only because so many of his other projects are more obscure. I suppose its possible that Harlin has a worse movie than the Adventures of Ford Fairlane because I haven't seen all of his work. I shudder at the thought that something could be worse than this.The acting is atrocious, Andrew Dice Clay's leading man is utterly unlikable and Harlin is at his worst. Worse than even the dreadful Twelve Rounds. I can't see anyone enjoying this. A well deserved flop.

i love the movie i watch it 20 times threw out the year i was growing up before digital cable became a icon on TV.i love ford fair lane only because he was play a detective in a comedy try to pay his debt to satiate just like and cop on the beat. i alway wondered if he would make a squeal and find another director to make another movie if he could make the time also the actor that played ford fair lane was one of a thousand male or female actor to play the role of good cop bad cop and up hold the law. getting to the point would ford fair lane be able to compete or star as a stand in on law and order s v unit to come and be able to follow a script like Benson and stabler and maybe investigate sex crimes or be there for new york finest and make a difference. anyway i don't remember to much about the movie but i no that close to the end just like new year eve ford fair lane blow es up a building because it was the type of seen they wore shooting for him. anyway i don't no if ford fair lane would go on law and order but maybe one day people will remember him for what he was like when he finish high school and went his own way and took get a job to pay bills and make a living like anybody else in and on this planet earth. also i would like to add i would like if it was possible to get ford fair lane auto graft and share cooking recipe and maybe ask him to be a friend on face-book or twitter.
