Growing up, I was a huge fan of John Candy. I watched this film several times, along with other gems like Canadian Bacon, Uncle Buck and the under-rated Delirious. This is one of his worst films, yet I kept watching it repeatedly.
John Candy plays the bumbling, Clouseau-esque private eye, Harry Crumb. I hope that did not spoil the movie for you, as it answers the titular question. Harry Crumb is a "master of disguise." He is hired by the child molester Jeffrey Jones to solve a case.
There are a few laughs, although I am very embarrassed about it. This movie is very bad and anybody who likes it in 2011 should not be allowed to watch movies. It is okay to watch it, but it is not okay to like it.

4/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
