A potentially amusing comic premise -- dropping a pair of anarchic stoners into the spaced-out, sanctimonious world of New Age bio-dome enthusiasts -- gets submerged in a shower of witless gags and the feeble one-joke persona of MTV
celebrity Pauly Shore. In an attempt to reproduce the ENCINO MAN formula (nerd plus hunk equals boffo teen appeal), the movie pairs Shore with Stephen Baldwin, who's not much of a comedian but is (as every CLUELESS fan knows) irreproachably
Baldwin. All told, it's precisely what you'd expect --
which means you'd be well-advised to wait for the video.
