Car dealer Joey O'Brien (Robin Williams) is spread as thin financially as he is in his love life. He's dating more women than he can remember, and the local toughs he's borrowed money from want it back. In a last-ditch effort to get out of debt, Joey struggles to sell a dozen cars in two days -- a task that becomes difficult when the husband (Tim Robbins) of Joey's secretary (Annabella Sciorra) barges into the dealership with a semi-automatic weapon and takes everyone hostage.

Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: B- Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times My problems with Cadillac Man were probably inspired more by false expectations than by anything on the screen, and maybe if Robbins had come crashing in through the window in the first scene I would have liked it more. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Entertainment Weekly Rated: B- May 18, 1990 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a briskly-paced comedy that benefits substantially from Williams’ compelling, entertaining work as the motor-mouthed protagonist... Rated: 3/4 Jan 6, 2025 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) I had a lot of fun... [Full review in Spanish] Oct 28, 2022 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Jul 26, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

nick s Lots of chaos, people talking rapid fire and nonstop yelling. Gets a bit tedious. All the characters are exaggerated to caricatures. Waste of a good cast. Robin Williams was good but should have skipped this one. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Stephen C Funny in 1 hour and 37 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The USA grossed over $26,900,000.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/14/25 Full Review Dave C Not funny at all, so comedy seems a stretch. Not even sardonic or ironic. It is a solid example of how well RW held a cast together, and showed himself as a stalwart actor Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review alan g Robin Williams at his smarmy best. He acts like a real life used car dealer. Real acting. Tim Robbins playing his usual clueless stupid self. Other actors pass. The poster says it all. Tim Robbins looks and act clueless as usual. Fantasy ending. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/16/25 Full Review KB B I watched this again after about 30 years. This was such an amazing movie displaying Robin Williams' acting skills. It's definitely worth the watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/18/23 Full Review Carlos I It really is like a comedic Dog Day Afternoon. I mean, I don't really buy Robin Williams as a philandering car salesman, but it's still a good bunch of fun. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
