I first caught sight of this at 1am, in the usual late night films that normally send you straight off to sleep. Not this film. I was still awake at 2.30 when it ended.

Richard Pryor deserves more credit for this role than he has received. By that I mean he's received no credit for a great performance and just shows that the man had more talent than was given credit. I urge any person thinking of a union career to watch this and then do the opposite of the characters.

A gritty union drama that you can't stop watching from beginning to end.

Please folks ignore Murphy 2's comments. The comedy of 2 1/2 men is as good as Frasier, Cheers and Friends if not better. The 1/2 a man is a good foil for Charlie Sheen and at last we have a funny child in a comedy show. Normally the children in comedies are smarmy, this child however is one for the future. Sheen is a great uncle and his brother makes as good a brother as Niles in Frasier. The comedy is slick and the one line gags are always catching you out as you can't see them coming. A laugh a minute from start to end. Even the theme tune makes you smile. I suggest you give it a chance and watch a couple of episodes your sides will split with laughter, once you've watched a few episodes you'll be hooked.
