Member Rating:  
Yet another recurring character from Saturday Night Live makes the jump to the big screen in this comedy. Leon Phelps (Tim Meadows) is the host of a radio call-in show in which he dispenses advice on the fine art of seduction, for which he seems to have quite a talent -- rather surprising, seeing that he's usually broke, nearly everything he says sounds crass and obvious, and he possesses a fashion sense that would have been gauche in the mid-1970s but seems just plain freakish today. After finally going too far during a broadcast, Leon is fired, but he receives a note from one of his former flames who wants him to come back to her -- and is willing to support him in high style. This sounds just fine with Leon, except she hasn't signed her name, and now Leon has to backtrack through his numerous conquests of the past and figure out who wants him to work his love magic. Meanwhile, a group of husbands who've been cuckolded by Leon, led by Barney (Lee Evans) and Lance (Will Ferrell), are hot on his trail, eager to get revenge. The Ladies' Man also stars Tiffani Thiessen and Karyn Parsons as two of the ladies in Leon's life and Billy Dee Williams as the ultra-smooth proprietor of Lester's Straight-Up Lounge. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Another example of taking a short sketch that works on SNL, and trying to make a movie out of it. Trust me, your time is better spent watching something else . . . . anything else.

    Would you like a fish sandwich? Then show them the goods. Will Farrell is good in this movie and Tim Meadows is pretty good as well. It just wasn't that great of a movie. It was a much better skit on SNL then being made into a movie. Still it did have some funny parts. The ending was great with Will Farrell. I would still recommend it as a one time watch.

    What a funny movie. I am not normallya fan of Will Farrel type movies, but this is so much fun. I laughed my butt off. Tim Meadows so absurdley portrays "the typical ladies man of the 80's". He depicts many mens opinions of themselves if they are the least bit successful with women. Karyn Parsons is stunning in this movie as well. Great fun movie , not real deep, but I would imagine that is what you are looking for if you are checking this movie out. Enjoy!
