Faced with the task of rescuing their missing doctor from a pair of crooked cops, the group takes to the streets in a series of hilarious misadventures. ...The Dream Team

What more can be said about this film but brilliant, four mental patients go on a field trip with their doctor to a baseball game. Only when the doctor goes missing they must go on the run and rescue him from a pair of crooked cops.
Billy (Michael Keaton) is a patient that is a pathological liar with a violent streak. Henry (Christopher Lloyd) a neat freak, Jack (Peter Boyle) a former advertising executive who thinks he's Christ. and Albert (Stephen Furst) a near catatonic couch potato.
A great movie and certainly worth sitting through an 1 hour and 48 mins for. Great comedy a real classic a movie which shows how a comedy is meant to be done.

This is comedy at its best, and also has that 80's feel,a good story, specific to comedies until the 90's when they started to rarely have an interesting one.Four mental patients suddenly find themselves alone on the run in the Big Apple and "better get sane real goddamn fast" , as they are being accused of attacking their psychiatrist -what a great premise for a comedy.Michael Keaton was born for this part, the "mental patient with a history of violence".Peter Boyle is also great as an ad executive who believes Jesus is speaking to him, Lloyd and Furst are also great.Combined with the great dialog, delivers one of the best comedies made in the 80's.
Memorable quote:"Ah, it's great to be young and insane!"

Michael Keaton has a very noteable achievement if you can call it that he is in two of the most underated movies ever in my opinion. one is The Paper and the other is this one the dream team. its the movie if you saw the box in blockbusters you would pick up because you counldnt get the movie you really wanted. but when you see it you will love it. the comedy is what comedy should be, its a saturday night live long sketch. the story is decribed so need to go there, but its the 4 main actors who work so well.
watch it buy it or try to rent it its really good movie.
