I loved watching these comic geniuses when I was growing up and I made it a point to watch all of their movies. I don\u2019t recall the pair making a movie together, so I was that much more excited to see them working together for the first time. Also, I don\u2019t think either actor has starred in anything big in quite some time. I started <em>The Last Laugh<\/em> with the anticipation of laughing throughout, but the laughs only came in spurts. At least I got to laugh from time to time, though.<\/p>\n<p>The story is about a former talent manager named Al Hart (Chase) who dreads retirement and living in a retirement community. Al\u2019s well-meaning granddaughter Jeannie (Micucci) talks him into it because she doesn\u2019t want him to be alone. Al gives it a chance, but only to satisfy her. Upon arrival, Al sees that his old buddy (aptly named Buddy [Dreyfuss]) is living there too. Al and Buddy go way back \u2013 Al was Buddy\u2019s manager when Buddy was a stand-up comedian. You would think Al would be right at home with an old friend. Unfortunately, this feeling doesn\u2019t last long. An ambulance pulling up to the front doors becomes a nightly occurrence when the other residents have medical emergencies or injure themselves in a fall. All of this serves only to remind Al that he is getting older, which just makes him more miserable.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_929\">\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_929\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-929\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/decider.com\/2019\/01\/11\/the-last-laugh-on-netflix-stream-it-or-skip-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"929\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/home\/the-last-laugh\/the-last-laugh-pic-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?fit=646%2C431&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"646,431\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"The Last Laugh pic 1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Chevy Chase and Richard Dreyfuss in &amp;#8220;The Last Laugh.&amp;#8221; Source: Decider.com&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?fit=646%2C431&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-929\" title=\"the last laugh\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?resize=630%2C420&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"the last laugh\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?resize=270%2C180&amp;ssl=1 270w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-1.jpg?w=646&amp;ssl=1 646w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-929\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Netflix. Image from IMDb.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/figure>\n<p>When Al sees that Buddy has some comedic spark left in him, whether he\u2019s making wisecracks or giving a humorous color commentary on life, Al wants to get Buddy back on stage. Al books a few gigs through old connections and the two go on a road trip. The real hilarity of the movie lies in the stand-up jokes that Buddy makes and the unexpected obstacles the pair encounters. Whether it\u2019s Buddy\u2019s marijuana supply running short, or the two spending a night in jail, these unfortunate, yet hilarious events are the meat and potatoes of this comedy.<\/p>\n<p>However, one subplot that didn\u2019t make much sense to me was the relationship between Al and Doris (MacDowell). I\u2019ve always loved Andie MacDowell in everything, but she just didn\u2019t belong in this film. Her character Doris is a free-spirited woman Al picks up from their stop in Kansas. She introduces Al to drugs, which is funny after Al\u2019s repeated refusals of Buddy\u2019s drug of choice.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_930\">\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_930\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-930\" style=\"width: 689px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/review\/last-laugh-review-1175158\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"930\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/home\/the-last-laugh\/the-last-laugh-4\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;6.3&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Patti Perret\/Netflix&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 5D Mark III&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Chevy Chase as Al Hart, Andie MacDowell as Doris Lovejoy, and Richard Dreyfuss as Buddy Green in The Last Laugh, written and directed by Greg Pritikin.\\nPatti Perret\/Netflix&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1506690858&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;The Last Laugh, LLC&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;75&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;320&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;The Last Laugh&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"The Last Laugh\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Richard Dreyfuss, Andie MacDowell, and Chevy Chase in &amp;#8220;The Last Laugh.&amp;#8221; Source: The Hollywood Reporter.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-930\" title=\"the last laugh\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?resize=689%2C388&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"the last laugh\" width=\"689\" height=\"388\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?resize=710%2C399&amp;ssl=1 710w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/The-Last-Laugh-pic-2.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 689px) 100vw, 689px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-930\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Netflix.

Al finds himself on stage with Doris, who is dressed like she is performing in Chicago. This prolonged sequence just didn\u2019t make much sense to me. It didn\u2019t belong in the film like the drug sequences did in <a href=\"https:\/\/ryansmoviecorner.com\/home\/10-funniest-movies-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><em>The Big Lebowski<\/em> (1998)<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. At least those had a purpose. Since Al said before that he hates musicals, it had the potential to be a funny scene, but it flopped.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 I am not shaming the film entirely because of that sequence. It still had its laughs and heart. The relationship between Al and Buddy was fun to watch because they fed off each other so well. It would be great to see them together again. I know they\u2019re starting to get up there in age, but better late than never, right? <em>The Last Laugh<\/em> had the potential to be a great comedy, but it fell short.
