Overview
The escaped mental patient and delinquent John W. Burns Jr. replaces Dr. Maitlin on a radio show, saying he's the psychiatrist Lawrence Baird.
“The Couch Trip” should be a new way to say that something really sucks. “Boy, you really Couch Tripped that one”. The only thing worse than this script is seeing Akroyd (can we all acknowledge he is a side man?) try to do his best Bill Murray imitation while trying to get through this utter piece of shite. How did they get so many good actors to be in this movie? I had it on in the background in a hotel while I packed, and it was difficult to get through it with the movie on in the background. I can’t imagine seeing this in a theater on a saturday night. Woof.
