Mouse Hunt (1997, comedy and slapstick)

When their workaholic father dies, luckless brothers Ernie ( Nathan Lane ) and Lars (Lee Evans) Smuntz are surprised to learn that their inheritance is not only the money-losing string factory Pop founded, but also an old Victorian mansion that turns out to be worth a fortune. The rundown manor is an architectural masterpiece known as " The Lost LaRue " . Ernie and Lars - one fired from his job and the other thrown out by his wife - decide to live in the house, fix it up, and cash in by selling it at a private auction. They soon find out they have a roommate in the form of a resolute rodent who has no intention of vacating the premises. Think "The Roadrunner" as you watch this seemingly indestructible mouse go from one extreme escape to another.
