Meet the Deedles Movie Review 1998

The answer to the question, "What would happen if Bill and Ted or Wayne and Garth were even dumber?" Hard to believe? No, just hard to watch. Phil and Stew Deedle (Walker and Van Wormer) are two rich surfer airheads who just wanna have fun, dude. Facing expulsion from school, the twins are forced to attend the bogus Camp Broken Spirit by their father. The boys slip and fall on a plot device and wake up in the hospital, mistaken for rookie Yellowstone park rangers there to fight a mounting prarie dog problem. It seems that bitter ex-ranger Slater (Hopper, phoning in his patented mondo-weirdo) has enslaved the rodents and is trying to redirect the geyser Old Faithful. Features heinous dialogue and stunts lifted from Mountain Dew commercials.
