Misleading title--no scouts in it
Added 4/24/2009
There are no Scouts in this movie. It is simply a movie about a man who thinks all outdoor activities (and those who enjoy them) are stupid. Bob Saget goes through the movie making snide remarks about everything, only to be proved that he is just a jerk. This film is titled incorrectly--the boy is not involved in Scouting, and the camp is not a Boy Scout (or any other kind of Scout) camp. This is typical of the smug view that anyone who enjoys boating, hiking, camping or fishing must be some type of backwoods redneck. Bought it used, tossed it in the trash after one viewing.

I'll NEVER watch this garbage again!
Added 9/12/2005
Four years ago, I received this movie for Christmas. Boy, was it a piece of crap! It should've never been made. The acting was terrible, it didn't have a good plot, and all of FAS's characters made absolutely no sense. I threw it away because it was so bad. I don't regret trashing it because I'm 100% happier without it. Do NOT buy this movie unless you enjoy watching garbage.

Funny And Sweet...
Added 2/24/2003
I love this movie. I've watched it several times already and I'm eagerly awaiting a DVD version for my collection. I've generally found Bob Saget to be far more aggravating than humorous in the past, given his inane and incessant rambling on America's Funniest Home Videos. But he really surprised me in this movie, by being extraordinarily funny. This movie alone, has almost made me a fan of his. Saget plays the part of a somewhat inept father, when it comes to the more physical, outdoorsy things. The hilarity ensues, when Saget feels compelled to take his young son on a camping trip. Brian Bonsall does a wonderful job playing Saget's son and to boot he is absolutely one of the cutest young boy actors to ever grace the screen. An entertaining movie that all can enjoy, but perhaps especially great for fathers and sons.
