Surprisingly incoherent and boring

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Blistering performances.

Even when I first saw "Roll, Freddy, Roll" as an 11-year-old fan of anything starring Tim Conway, something puzzled me. Sure, I enjoyed Tim as always. And the climax where he's rolling through the streets like "Bullitt" on roller skates is amazing. But I just couldn't figure out the ex-wife and kid. I mean, Freddy's rival for his son's attention is a car dealer during an oil crisis ... while Freddy designs mainframe computers before anyone even knows what they are! So it's pretty obvious who the cool dad really is. If the ex and the kid are really that shallow, we need a sequel to set things straight - one where Freddy's a billionaire with a half-dozen IPOs under his belt, preferably roller blading with his third trophy wife.

This was one of the funniest movies my family has ever been privileged to see. My husband and kids literally laughed so hard that they fell on the floor. My jaw and stomach muscles ached for days afterward. I have tried for years to find information about this made-for-TV film to no avail. Most of the time there was simply NO information to be had. It was as if the media moguls just let this hilarious piece fall through the cracks into some sort of limbo. It did my heart good to see other folks so interested in seeing this film again. Laughter cures so many ills and the world sure could use some laugh medicine about now. Come on Disney, give us a smile, give us a DVD.

This movie had my husband and I "rolling" on the floor in laughter. I have been searching for years for "Roll Freddy Roll". This the the first time I have even seen it come up on a website, THANK YOU. Now to get Disney to bring it out on DVD or even VHS would make me very happy.Tim is one of my favorite actors and everyone should see this hilarious film. We were newly married when we watched this on TV and I have never forgotten it. I have searched the web over and over and was beginning to think I had the wrong title, I knew that Tim Conway was the main actor so continued to search. I will be using this site to search for movies that I would love to buy. Please stress that this movie needs to be brought back for my children and my grandchildren to see. Come on Disney, bring it back!

This is a funny movie about a man trying to get his son's approval. He decides to get in the Guinness Book of records by wearing roller skates longer than anyone. He ends up being a pall bearer on roller skates and whipping out of control down a parking ramp--all silly fun that's a perfect vehicle for Conway type physical humor and a good movie for kids to watch.
