Knotts is an unfunny protagonist in an annoying film, much like the Ernest films. Almost no one seems to be able to talk normally, everyone (with the protagonist as the apex) shouts or talks at best, oink oink, constantly raising their voice in a particularly annoying way.

Roy Fleming is a child attraction employee and has a fear of heights. When his domineering father has a job for him on a space project, he reluctantly travels to Houston. When he gets there, it turns out he has been hired as a janitor and not as an astronaut. Until things take an unexpected turn.
at times amusing but generally a somewhat childish comedy about a nobody who tries to hide from his father and the entire village where he comes from that he is only a cleaner on the Cape Kennedy grounds, until he is finally unmasked.
With a lot of luck, he will eventually get a unique opportunity to go into space.
A lot of lame Disney-level jokes, but all in all a funny comedy.
