 Hidden Gem February 9, 2010
David Horowitz (Hazlet, NJ)
This is one of those movies that when you find out someone else enjoys it, you know you like them. Randy Quaid is hysterical. A great Bill Murray flick. If you love Bill Murray, if you love heist movies, if you love to laugh, you will love this movie. Another noteworthy cast member would be Tony Shalhoub. Two thumbs up. To buy it is to enjoy it.
Great Comedy September 12, 2009
Mark A. Wachdorf (Sacramento, CA USA)
if you like What about Bob and Groundhog day then you'll like this film to. This is a tab bit more intellegent but still funny.
 Good service June 27, 2009

My shipment arrived sooner than expected and I paid a very reasonable price. Couldn't be happier in finding a 'hard to find' item.
Good Mix Of Clever and Silly April 13, 2009
Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
This is a clever and entertaining comedy that has some dramatic and romantic touches as well. It's almost two movies-in-one: a dramatic holdup and a comic getaway. The holdup scene does has comedy but is more dramatic. It reminded me of the '70s classic "Dog Day Afternoon" in which the hostages are kept by a couple of robbers and the crooks demand the normal assortment of getaway vehicles. Except in here, ringleader Bill Murray wants a "monster truck" along with everything else. You know with Murray you are going to get outrageous humor and satire.
****spoilers alert**** Anyway, the bulk of the film concerns what happens after the trio - Murray, Randy Quaid and Geena Davis -escape from the holdup scene. The bottom line is that they just can't get out of New York City. One disaster after another keeps happening, and it's all kind funny (and frustrating!). The ending I won't spoil.
Murray plays his normal wise-guy role and Quaid is good as the emotional slapstick-type buffoon. Davis complements the two with her coolness and eye candy for the male audience. Veteran Jason Robards plays the chief detective on the case, and shows comedic touches of his own.
What also is fun to watch nowadays is Tony Shalhoub. When this film came out, hardly anyone knew him. Now he's famous as "Monk" on the television series of the same name. In this film, he plays an Arabic cab driver and you have to see this performance to believe it! A couple of other familiar faces also show up in here, including Bob Elliot from the old radio duo of "Bob and Ray."
There is no sex, no bloodshed, just a lot of jokes but the "R" rating ought to tell you something about the language in here.

I was hoping for an overlooked gem but found a well deserved overlooked film. They kept wandering around town after a bank heist and had stuff happen to them in different situations. This never changed for the better. It had potential.
