''Good Burger'' is a 1997 comedy film produced by {{Nickelodeon}} Movies and released by Creator/{{Paramount}} Pictures, directed by BrianRobbins and produced by DanSchneider and starring [[KenanAndKel Kenan Thompson, Kel Mitchell]], {{Sinbad}}, SharJackson, AbeVigoda, and JanSchweiterman. The film was based on a popular recurring sketch on {{Nickelodeon}}'s sketch show ''Series/AllThat'', with Mitchell reprising his role as an airheaded fast food cashier.

The film is noteworthy for being the first theatrical-released film based on a Nickelodeon show. It is also the only film that fits that criteria that is based on a live-action Nickelodeon show.

The plot of the film centers on the rivalry between the eponymous burger joint and a slick new competitor owned by a [[CorruptCorporateExecutive crooked restaurateur]].

CarmenElectra, ShaquilleONeal, and Music/GeorgeClinton make brief [[TheCameo cameo]] appearances.

Good Burger was the second film to be produced by {{Nickelodeon}} Movies.

The film was released on July 25, 1997 and, unfortunately, had a budget. It opened at #5 with $7,058,333 and in total, the film earned $23,712,993 in the US & Canada. It was the 82nd most commercially successful film of its year.

Reviews for the film were mostly negative, garnering a 31% "rotten" rating at RottenTomatoes.

!!Tropes this movie follows:

* AllJustADream: Ed dreams of burgers talking to him at the beginning of the movie.
* ArtisticLicenseChemistry: Mondo Burger's "triamphethol" is an additive that somehow causes hamburger meat to increase in mass during cooking. Kurt admits that it is "way illegal"--indeed, it violates not only the health code, but also the law of conservation of mass.
* AvoidTheDreadedGRating: Abe Vigoda's line "I think I broke my ass".
* BadBoss / MeanBoss: Kurt, who runs Mondo Burger like a Nazi boot camp.
* BedlamHouse: The main characters are sent there by the BigBad after learning the secret behind Mondo Burger's...well, mondo burgers.
* BenevolentBoss: Mr. Bailey.
* BiggerIsBetter: Apparently Mondo Burger's philosophy. Kurt's attempted solution to getting customers? Make their "already twice as big as Good Burger's" burgers bigger!
-->'''Employee:''' But they're already--\\
'''Kurt:''' Bigger! ''[[UpToEleven BIGGER!!]]''
* BigNo: Ed, when he stops the old lady from eating a poisoned good burger.
* BookEnds: The movie begins and ends with Ed saying his customary Good Burger greeting.
* TheBrute: Spatch (although a benevolent example) and "Mr. Big Huge Scary Man" at the BedlamHouse.
* BurgerFool: Subverted for Ed, but applies for Dexter.
* ButtMonkey: Mr. Wheat, Dexter's accident-prone teacher.
** Otis counts as an IronButtMonkey. It's incredibly impressive to watch Abe Vigoda take that many prat falls, seeing as by now he ''must'' be in his early 200's.
* TheCameo: The Burgermobile is the Mirthmobile from ''Film/WaynesWorld'' with fast food-themed attachments.
* CatapultNightmare: Ed, after dreaming about talking burgers and then falls down a hole.
-->'''Ed:''' ''(waking up)'' WELCOME TO GOOD BURGER, HOME OF THE GOOD BURGER. CAN I TAKE-- huh?
* CatchPhrase: "Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?"
** "Mess with Kurt, and you go into the grinder".
* CanonForeigner: Not counting anyone not connected to Good Burger in which the sketches took place, Dexter, Otis and most of the supporting staff never appeared in the sketches, although Kenan Thompson often did appear in the sketches as various customers.
* ChaseScene
* TheChewToy: Roxanne, an extremely hot Mondo Burger employee, who ends up getting torn to pieces in an attempt to [[HoneyTrap seduce Ed into revealing his sauce recipe]] during a double date with Dexter and Monique.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
-->'''Otis:''' I caught those Mondo brats dumping shark poison in our sauce.

* DumbassHasAPoint:
-->'''Ed:''' See, I knew that if I took the can, there was a good chance I'd get caught. Then I thought that even if I did take the triambythal to the proper authorities, Kurt would hire some high-powered attorney who dispute any charges brought against him or Mondo Burger, by manipulating the legal system. And the way that America's court system is congested these days, it would have taken months to convict him of anything. So then I thought, I just take the matter into my own hands and pour the triambythal into the meat supply and let Mondo Burger [[HoistByHisOwnPetard be a victim of its own foul play]].
* EvilDetectingDog: Ed gives a hungry dog a Mondo Burger patty, but the dog won't eat it for some reason. So Ed gives him a Good Burger patty instead and it immediately eats it. This begins to make Dexter and Ed suspicious about Mondo Burger.

* FanDisservice: Ed wearing Victoria's Secret.
* FemmeFatale: Roxanne.
* FoodPorn: Considering it's about burgers, occurs, particularly the pre-title opening.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: "If anyone can get the sauce out of Ed, she can!"
** When being drilled on Mondo Burger protocol, Kurt mentions that his employees should forget their families, because he is both their mother and father. Dexter tells one of his fellow trainees, "Kurt must look awfully strange naked."
** When Ed is about to tell the contents of the secret good burger sauce and is tackled to the ground by Dexter "I like you as a friend and all but..."

* {{Mooks}}: Troy and Griffin (the Greek guy and the tough black guy at Mondo Burger).
* MotorMouth: A customer (none other than Connie Muldoon) with a ridiculously long and complicated order, who causes Ed's brain (what little there is of it) to blow a fuse.
** Dexter, when he tries to explain why he was sloppy making a Mondo Burger. And when he got caught making a snidey remark and laughing. This is what got him thrown out.
* MsFanservice: Carmen Electra, aka [[HoneyTrap Roxanne]].
* NeverMyFault: Dexter, who just recognizing where he's seen Ed, blames him for the car accident that forced him to get a summer job to pay for it. He also blames him for his parents finding out he was ''driving without a license'', which he shouldn't have been doing in the first place.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Ed explains that he poured the bottles of acid into the meat on purpose because he knew that Kurt would manipulate the legal system to his favor unless the cops discover the acid themselves as they did when the restaurant imploded; Ed then goes on to say "I'm not stupid," despite his blatant idiocy throughout the movie (as well as the ''All That'' sketch that the film is based on).
* OhCrap: Dexter when he's standing on top of a delivery van that's about to drive off. Actually, Dexter has these moments throughout the movie.
** Kurt when Dexter informs him that Ed is on his way to the police with evidence of Mondo Burger's criminal practices.

* PopStarComposer: The movie score was composed by the fantastic Stewart Copeland, drummer for Music/ThePolice. The score contains numerous moments of guitar shredding, heavy rock riffs, synthesizers, and R&B vocal samples.

** Which leads to a wonderful GettingCrapPastTheRadar line:
-->'''Dexter''': Kurt must look awfully strange naked.
* SkewedPriorities: Dexter's upset because he has to get a summer job? Dude, you're lucky you didn't go to ''prison for driving without a license!''
* SmugSnake: Kurt, again.
* StraightMan: Dexter
* StormingTheCastle: Dexter and Ed's infiltration of Mondo Burger at the end.
* ThirdPersonPerson[=/=]WhosOnFirst: Kurt
-->'''Ed:''' Who's Kurt?\\
'''Kurt:''' I'm Kurt.\\
'''Ed:''' I'm Ed.\\
'''Kurt:''' I'm aware!\\
'''Ed:''' You said you were Kurt.
** [[DumbassHasAPoint He is]] [[{{Pun}} curt]].
* TimmyInAWell: A Subversion with a dog running up to Ed, who reads his barkings as "A bunch of clowns are stranded on the highway with a broken radiator".
