What it's about
Meet Arlo Pear. He's a family man with a loving wife, a rebellious daughter, twin sons, a half-dead dog, and a nice job with the city in New Jersey as a mass transit engineer. But one day Arlo is fired so he must try to get another job. He finds a similar one to his old one, except that it's in Boise, Idaho. Sounds good to Arlo, so he can finally get away from his insane neighbor who has a lawn mower the size of Pennsylvania. Only problem: how to break it to the family? The decision is soon made: they're moving. Now they've got to sell their house which has hilarious results, so now they need to get movers. Two former cons, now movers, show up with King Kong Bundy. Now to find a new house in Idaho. They soon find their dream house, so they return to New Jersey and head off to Boise. Arlo hires a charming man (Dana Carvey) to drive his SAAB to Idaho, unaware of the man's multiple personalities. If that's not bad enough, their new house is far from what they expected, and their New Jersey neighbor's twin brother lives next door and he's got a gigantic mower also. When things couldn't get any worse--they do: Arlo loses his new job and the movers never show up. Now it's time for Arlo to kick some serious A$$.
