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. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/03/24 Full Review Susan W I loved it! A well executed screwball comedy. Too many critics got stuck on Sylvester Stallone persona in type casting in out of type role. Comic timing of entire cast was perfect. A movie whose plot has to be closely followed to appreciate and better the second time around. Very underrated but watch with no preconceived attitude and you will not be sorry. Think Abbot and Costello 'Who's on First' but in movie length. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review Janelle S Ridiculous, tongue in cheek comedy. Imminently quotable. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/27/23 Full Review W B Worth a (re)watch. Stallone's natural sense of comedy and farce shines. Too summarily dismissed at the time by those prejudiced by the blinkers of Rocky and Rambo. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/23 Full Review Chris V Ignore the critics. Oscar is one of the great movies of our time. Sylvester Stallone, Marisa Tomei and Tim Curry team up for an absurd yet endearing 90's comedy that wonderfully meanders through a rickety storyline of a Depression-era mobster attempting to go straight. It's silly, and over-the-top, but will make you laugh, shelve it for a few years--maybe even a decade--then come back to it just so you can loathe yourself for enjoying it again.
