One of the characters spends half the movie running around wearing a burger costume with a bikini strapped on top.
Even if you haven't seen the TV show, they've done a good job of making the movie accessible for newcomers. Certainly there are some cameos and references that won't be
as funny but they're all extras. Production quality is a noticeable step up from the show.
Ultimately it's about a family trying to save their restaurant from the bank and hilarity ensues. The movie quickly crescendos into a fast-paced chaotic free-for-all with the occasional musical number for good measure and finishes with a happy ending for all.
Gary Cole and Zach Galifianakis both provide hilarious supporting roles, plus Kevin Kline as the eccentric landlord complete with cape and eye patch.
