TV CHILD STAR OF THE '70S, DICKIE ROBERTS IS NOW 35 AND PARKING CARS. CRAVING TO REGAIN THE SPOTLIGHT, HE AUDITIONS FOR A ROLEOF A NORMAL GUY, BUT THE DIRECTOR QUICKLY SEES HE IS ANYTHING BUT NORMAL. DESPERATE TO WIN THE PART, DICKIE HIRES A FAMILY TO HELP HIM REPLAY HIS CHILDHOOD AND ASSUME THE IDENTITY OF A KID.David Spade embodies Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star with the snide, glib, and bored attitude for which he is loved by his fans. Dickie, whose mother abandoned him in his youth when his TV show was canceled, yearns to regain the spotlight. But he can't get a promising role because the director believes that Dickie isn't a real person; so, to find his real self, Dickie hires a family to give him! the childhood he never had. Dickie Roberts has some scattered laughs, but the writers have no better grasp of reality than Dickie himself; the "normal family" Dickie hires is as warm and glossy as any TV clan. A busload of real former child stars play exaggerated versions of themselves, but the result is more uncomfortable than satirical. However, if you want to see David Spade imitate a jet-ski, this is your movie. --Bret FetzerTV CHILD STAR OF THE '70S, DICKIE ROBERTS IS NOW 35 AND PARKING CARS.

Now the only keys Dickie holds are the ones that start the customer's cars that he parks as a valet attendant for a Hollywood restaurant.

Desperate to revive his acting career, Dickie tries to audition for a role in Rob Reiner's new mov! ie but the director doesn't believe Dickie is normal enough to play the part. Determined to get the role, Dickie hires a "typical" family to give him the real-life upbringing he never had. But once Dickie moves in, the family's life becomes anything but normal, as Dickie unleashes his wild inner child . . . and learns in the process some unforgettable lessons about fame, fortune and true family values.
