Loads of fun. Aside from Griswold, this is probably Chase's best role. Just such a great send up and the perfect vehicle for his talents.

Fletch is a classic ‘80s comedy that’s outrageously fun and full of laughs. Chevy Chase stars as Irwin Fletcher, an investigative reporter whose exposé on L.A. drug smuggling takes a bizarre turn when he receives an unusual proposition from a wealthy businessman. The film is especially effective at using the type of SNL sketch comedy that Chase is so good at, and he gives a seminal performance that made Fletch into one of the most popular and beloved characters of his career. Additionally, the storytelling does an impressive job at building intrigue as Fletch’s investigation unfolds. Cleverly written and brilliantly executed, Fletch is a hilarious comedy that’s tremendously entertaining.

I am a total sucker for 1980's Chevy Chase movies. I really do love nearly all of them. He had a real nice decade with "Caddyshack", "Vacation", and the very funny "Fletch". Fletch is not quite the cartoon character that Clark Griswold or Ty Webb were, but Fletch himself plays a kind of master of disguises that gives Chase the ability to morph into a variety of characters, and that's what makes this movie a kick. There are so many subtle things that Chase does to get a laugh here. I am especially fond of his plane inspector disguise which I still quote with regularity.

This is probably the most dated of the 80's Chase flicks but I think that's largely due to the synth-heavy soundtrack. I'm at the age where my tastes in comedy were being formed by the Chase, Bill Murray, and Eddie Murphy vehicles that were so prevalent in the 80's. But I really think many younger and older people will still be able to find a lot to laugh at watching "Fletch".

Chevy Chase dreaming he has an Afro and is good at basketball. Definitely would be considered racist these days.
As fan of Beverly Hills Cop though. Seeing this film straight through, now. It’s nice that it has a similar musical score.
Chevy Chase is perfect in this role though. It’s a shame that due to a poorly reviewed sequel. That he didn’t make a ton of these movies.
The racist dream sequence was odd though and not necessary. Since it doesn’t fit the plot or anything. Otherwise this is a fun movie.
