What, I should have included It’s Pat! or The Ladies Man? Anyway, Coneheads is somewhat watchable, if only for the old “aliens trying to fit in with society” layup comedy that comes with the territory. With SNL sketches-turned-movies, the bar is set pretty low. Look, I never wrote that all of these movies were going to be good. Here are my top 5 movies based on SNL sketches, ranked in descending order. It’d be pretty easy to make a list of the worst movies based on SNL sketches, so I decided for the slightly more difficult route of ranking the best. As you’re probably aware, most movies based on Saturday Night Live sketches are pretty awful. Too often a sketch may seem to run on for too long when it’s just a few minutes, so stretching it all the way out to the length of a movie can prove to be disastrous.

Chazz Palminteri - Mr.With word that a MacGruber movie is set to be released in April of this year, I got to thinking that it’s been about 10 years since a movie based on a Saturday Night Live sketch has been in theaters.Too bad, because it clocks in at about 80 minutes and could have run on television as a pretty good episode of SNL, which has been known to get a bit lame itself. All gifted comedians, Kattan, Ferrell, and Shannon obviously feel comfortable around each other, and their love triangle (which prompts send-ups of Say Anything and Jerry Maguire) is the funniest joke in this mostly lame comedy.

Doug and Steve are pathetic but lovable, mostly due to the actors' talents for self-deprecating humor.

A fender-bender with Richard Grieco (playing himself) gets them into the popular club the Roxbury, but it's not all good news, as the brothers soon find themselves torn apart. By night they prowl the club scene after spraying on the cologne in their gauchely decorated bedroom. By day they work in their father's fake-plant store. What's funny in a three-minute piece doesn't always get funnier by expansion, but Kattan and Ferrell give it a go with fellow SNL member Molly Shannon as their ambitious neighbor. Expanding their one-joke skit from television's Saturday Night Live, Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell are Doug and Steve Butabi, the wearers of the rayon suits and Speedo trunks who bob their heads in unison to dance music while unsuccessfully preying on women in clubs.
