Skrunkly T @RT93861586 Mar 20, 2025 its so bad it was good. I only watched it for Ralph macchio tho so worth it not to mention the little lesbian bit of calling each other daddy and mommy is pretty funny See more Jun 14, 2018 Sometimes there are movies that can take a stupid premise and make something amazing out of it. Too Much Sun is the opposite effect. It has a somewhat promising comedic premise, but the execution is not good. They try hard, and I did laugh a couple of times because they have some great comedy actors in the cast who made lemonade out of this lemon of a script. The premise is that a multimillionaire is about to die. On his deathbed a priest who wants all that money convinces him to sign a new will that stipulates the estate will go to the church unless one of his children bears him a grandchild within a year of his death. The problem being...both of his children are gay. It feels like something that could work, particularly with Eric Idle and Andrea Martin playing his children, but it falls apart quickly because they don’t seem to know what to do with this idea. It jumps straight to one of them having sex in a very short amount of time, so the roadblock they built into the story becomes a non-issue within minutes. Then they get distracted with these other kids who may or may not be grandchildren that were already born prior to the old man’s death. It is chaotic, random, and loses all the comedy that was built up in the first act. There are relationships that come out of nowhere, and at one point it felt like they completely forgot what the plot of the movie was supposed to be. I got a little bit of enjoyment from Too Much Sun, but I couldn’t help feeling like it was a whole bunch of wasted potential.
