Editorial Review:
Proving that a little success can be a dangerous thing, Emilio Estevez parlayed his early-'80s "brat-pack" fame into a dubious directorial career, beginning with 1986's Wisdom (in which Estevez costarred with then-fiancée Demi Moore), and resuming with this sophomore-effort 1990 comedy that benefits most from Emilio's teaming with brother Charlie Sheen. (Close your eyes and listen: their voices sound like their dad Martin Sheen after inhaling helium.) The brothers play a pair of garbage collectors who discover a body on their daily rounds, and the corpse draws them into a scheme involving corrupt politics, illegal hazardous-waste dumping, and a lovely neighbor (Leslie Hope) with connections to the dead guy. Add a wacko Vietnam vet (Keith David), an unsuspecting pizza deliverer (Dean Cameron), and a pair of overzealous cops, and you've got a comedy that lazily rambles from one lightweight scene to another. It's way too loose to have any noteworthy quality, but that's also part of the movie's low-brow appeal: Estevez and Sheen play well together, and this is just their way of goofing off with Hollywood money. With a sharper script and an experienced director, Men at Work could have paid off handsomely. As it is, these sibling antics are amiable enough, and the early-'90s fashion crimes (like Charlie's "dork knob" ponytail) offer an amusing diversion from the lamest gags. --Jeff Shannon
Men at Work [Region 2] Reviews:
1990 Charlie Sheen/Emilio Estevez FILM. 
2009-09-24 - If you like the TV SHOW, Two and a Half Men, starring Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer, then you should check out this film, which stars the "real" brothers comedy duo, from the 90's. The plot is kind of goofy, but that's okay, because it's a comedy. Stewart Copeland (Rumble Fish, The First Power) performed the film soundtrack as well.

Waht do you get?? 
2008-10-25 - What do you get when you have two real life brothers that play brothers who are garbage men, who are under the authority of a deranged war veteran, a sexy advertiser, two uptight cops, a toxic waste tycoon, an innocent pizza boy, two b-rated killers and a dead politician? A heck of a movie that will make you laugh! You just have to see it.
OMG, This is HYSTERICAL 
2008-09-29 - We had never seen this movie, but my kids were telling us how funny it is. We watched it and were doubled over half the movie!! Of course now my kids have the movie to watch. It really is hysterical, and we are glad that we got it. As soon as we get it back from them, we will have to see it again.
