Black Sheep tells the story of a political contest in which a candidate for Governor of Washington hires a wormy special assistant only to make sure unwanted, incompetent, and publicly embarrassing help from his brother doesn't ruin the election.
Yeah, I giggled a couple of times. But I suspect you will giggle more if you are male, age 15-27ish.

It's nice to see the two together, practicing their easy screen rapport--and no doubt more so given Farley's untimely passing--but Black Sheep is still a clunker. [Blu-ray]

Black Sheep is bleatingly awful as it reteams Chris Farley and David Spade, the poor idiot's Abbott and Costello, in a comedy so desperately inept it makes their previous effort, Tommy Boy, look like a minefield of high wit.

They're certainly no Aykroyd and Belushi, or even Myers and Carvey, but Farley and Spade manage to wring humor from a series of juvenile setups and predictable pratfalls.
