- Synopsis
- John Candy is Harry Crumb, the last in large family of private eyes. Unfortunately, big-hearted Harry's bumbling nature has led to his exile from the family for ten years while the family business was turned over to snakelike Eliot Draisen (Jeffrey Jones). Draisen plans on capitalizing on portly Harry's ineptitude when he puts Crumb on the case after kidnapping his own best client's daughter so that he can run away with the client's wife (Annie Potts). But this time, Harry, with a bizarre array of disguises, just might crack the case and prove he's one Crumb that won't be swept under the rug!

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Candy manages to squeeze a few laughs from the crude and cliche-ridden script, but Paul Flaherty directs broadly and obviously, with little feeling for comic pacing"
-
"The result is little more than a weak comedy, one that suggests Mr. Candy is potentially a great deal better than his material"
-
"'Who's Harry Crumb?' has a beginning bright enough to make you hope that John Candy might at last have his first good movie role since Splash. But no."
