Marybeth M I remember seeing this in the theater as a free preview. I think I was one of a handful of viewers who laughed all the way through this movie. I just watched it again tonight & laughed just as hard as I did the first time. This was just so unexpected from Sly Stallone, and the rest of the cast was outstanding. The direction was snappy & the score was spot on. Of course, anything w/ Peter Riegert, Chazz Palminteri, Marisa Tomei & Tim Curry is 'must watch.' The Finnucci Brothers are so freaking hilarious. I really believe that most moviegoers weren't really prepared to see gung-ho full-out action hero Stallone in such a vastly different roll, so the reception of the movie was really low. It is a damn shame b/c this gem of a movie is ridiculously underrated. Sure, there is some serious overacting as well as a healthy amount of slapstick & farce. The way the various threads of the story are woven is actually quite masterful. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Nicholas K I think this was one of stallones best and funniest movies of all time, this is a movie I have watched to the point in which I know every line word for word from beginning to end, that's how much I love this movie because no matter how many times I watch it I always laugh till my ribs hurt. In my opinion this is the best movie ever and I have seen hundreds of films Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/25 Full Review Ted B I've never understood the derision that this movie is given, I've always stepped away from it smiling and find it delightful. I don’t expect high art just entertainment, and this succeeds. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/27/24 Full Review Ragu S I don't know what's wrong with the critics, this is one of the funniest movies and my whole family enjoys this movie and we frequently quote dialogs from this movie. We re-watch it every couple of years. No slap stick, all comedy only based in dialog. Kirk Douglas in one scene but makes a very memorable performance. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Naveen L To me, Stallone did a magnificent job portraying Snaps Provolone. The cast is stellar, and the audience is bounced from gag to gag at a decent pace. I understand that most top critics were not impressed, but at the time I’m posting this review, I can see only 18 critics have reviewed it. So, not enough critics have seen this film, which has resulted in an overall low score. The director, the cast, and the writers have put in amazing work to make this masterpiece. Give it a shot, will ya? And decide for yourself. I loved it. It’ll always remain one of my favorites, and I’ll keep coming back to it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/18/24 Full Review Janet S I don’t know what’s wrong with people; this movie is hilarious. The first 10 minutes are pretty bad, with echoes of the Three Stooges at their worst, but it soon picks up. It’s a great comedy of errors, a screwball comedy in tune with the era in which it is set.
