𝘋𝘶𝘦 𝘋𝘢𝘵𝘦 still did it significantly better imo (Downey Jr. >> Martin, but Candy >> Galifianakis) but that doesn't at all hinder this from being a damn good comedy on the whole. Definitely a lighter affair for Hughes (99% of the comedy here is simply homespun "how can my day *possibly* get any worse??" histrionics done really, really superbly) but nonetheless sports a huge, pulsating heart in its chest. Was surprised with how well this skewers overt-masculinity and the usual reductive formula of these anti-buddy comedies considering its age (and even moreso fresh off the heels of the repugnant excrement that was 𝘚𝘪𝘹𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘊𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘭𝘦𝘴). Even if it isn't always seamless (i.e. the almost comedic abruptness of the ending reveal), it delves within both of its lead characters and gives us a good look where most movies of the genre would reduce them to the sum of their quirks. Rightfully earns its place as one of the definitive Thanksgiving movies.
