Movie Plot

Kevin Franklin (Sinbad) has a dream, but he's having trouble finding the on- ramp to the fast lane of his first million. Borrowing from loan sharks to finance a new business, Kevin finds himself in debt to the Gasperini Brothers. Seizing an opportunity to escape, Kevin passes himself off as a prominent Baltimore dentist to an unsuspecting Pittsburgh family, The Youngs, becoming their houseguest for a weekend. He has to shake the mobsters as well as make sure he does not blow his cover.

Trivia

The McDonald's that Kevin Franklin is seen visiting in Sewickley is actually a hardware store. The small town of Sewickley, in which most of this movie was filmed, does not have a McDonald's, so they had to build a fake front.

How do we recommend titles?

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
