Quartile rating: 6/10 · 1 rating
Mild-mannered dirt-poor hill-dweller Jed Clampett strikes it rich when oil is discovered on his property. At cousin Pearl's insistence, he moves his family to Beverly Hills to better enjoy his newfound wealth.
A straightforward TV-to-film adaptation of the classic 1960s sitcom that adds little new to the source material. The plot is essentially a feature-length rehash of the show's premise with no meaningful story development. Acting is broad and caricatured, serviceable for the comedy style but unremarkable. Cinematography is functional at best, typical early-90s studio comedy work. Novelty suffers as it's a by-the-numbers adaptation that recycles the fish-out-of-water concept without fresh angles. The ending wraps up predictably with no surprises. Competent but thoroughly average across all dimensions.
