Intelligent comments, eh? What about intelligent questions?

"Canadian Bacon was filmed in fall 1993. Candy died of a heart attack four months after shooting ended."
Obviously the filming for "Wagons East" was done during or after the filming of Canadian Bacon. And he died during that filming.
Films are usually filmed before they're released, you know. Sometimes by several months, even several years. -

Knowing Michael Moore's politics ruined the film for me. I knew exactly what he'd target and he did. What a waste of a really great cast!
Does anyone who DOESN'T like Michael Moore like this movie? I'd be very surprised to find a non-Michael Moore fan who does

I enjoyed this film as a kid, I was oblivious to politics as a kid and enjoyed this movie mainly because of John Candy and the cast. Michael Moore is about as big a tool you can get but I would never let that hurt the memories of watching John Candy movies or in this case Canadian Bacon just because Michael Moore turned out to be a future jackass.

I'm from Grand Island, NY (which is this itty bitty Island between Niagara Falls and Buffalo, NY) and I have a whole whack of Canadian relatives being from well and island in the middle of the Niagara River and able to slingshot a golfball into Canada. The scene where they launch the boat into Canada? Filmed a quarter mile from my house, on my island. Michael Moore is an ass I think he's a total tool. I won't watch any of his other drivel. But for us locals, this movie is friggin fabulous cuz it's right on with local stuff!!!

How could you possibly dis John Candy? And then top it off with your love for Carlos Mencia's day- to- day garbage? Then top it off by saying this movie sucked?
It wasn't the greatest movie, but there is no way this sucks, and to say John Candy produced bad comedy?? Jeeeesus, Mary and Joseph.
Typical bubblegummin', ignorant comment. I weap for the future of the film industry when punks like this are all over the place putting down what once were the good, classic actors. -

starman15317, who the hell is Michel Moore? Speaking of sad. When you come on a board to dis someone, have the decency to spell their name right! You're obviously American, and this post makes the point of the whole movie.

Incorrect, it's a good movie. Not great, and I could understand you not liking it but you lost all credibility when you called John candy a horrible actor/comedian.
Canadian Bacon - 7/10
Beneath the Planet of the Apes - 7/10 -

I absolutely loved this movie wonderful cast and funny as hell. Just thinking about the scene where the guys are driving the snow plow in Canada only to be pulled over by Ontario cop Dan Ackroyd still makes me laugh out loud. I can still hear the guys "singing" Oklahoma and Born in the USA to keep themselves pumped up, but the only words they knew were the titles of the songs you know like a lot of Americans do. Too bad I'm having trouble finding it on DVD or Netflix the only time I get to see it is when a network like TBS or AMC runs the edited version interrupted with a ton of commercials.
c'mon Americans, relax and laugh at(?) yourselves
