Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times 02/04/2023
Chicago connections are many for the Bill Murray classic that’s funny, poignant and way better than sweet vermouth on the rocks, with a twist. Go to Full Review

Groundhog Day is a charming and hilarious film. Or did I already say that? Anyway, it is worth repeating. Go to Full Review
Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness 01/20/2023
As home releases and re-releases start to fall into a bit of an endless cycle, it makes a weird bit of sense that Groundhog Day would lack a certain excitement and feel like more of what we’ve seen, yet still bring about a little bit of joy. Go to Full Review
Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 01/14/2023
3.5/4
Nothing suggested that this would gather steam over time and emerge as one of the most respected comedies of the past 30 years. Go to Full Review

3/4
Groundhog Day is a Scrooge-like comedy that's surprisingly delightful. It poses a very interesting question: What would happen if every day were the same? Go to Full Review

Susan D Feb 2 Whats not to like about this classic?! Bill Murray progresses through all of the stages of becoming a truly wonderful human being with a comedic timing that is unsurpassed. From the arrogant star, through finding ways to get selfishly what he wants from anyone, to finding what it takes to be genuine with his feelings to make his best selfand finding out that his humble self has finally found love, peace, and happiness. Its a lesson we all can benefit from while memorizing the most hilarious lines you will find yourself using in your own life. We have seen it hundreds of times, but the line is always that weve only seen it once.over and over again!! See more Anthony H. @Hardy 4d Groundhog Day was a surprising film that caught me off guard in more ways than one. What starts off as a weird comedy slowly turns into a beautiful love story. This film has you invested as Phil tries just about everything and slowly realizes that life should not be taken for granted. This film is a fun movie and just goes to show you that movies made back in the day just have a magic you can’t capture today.

A true classic. See more Sarah M. Oct 26 Unreal. I cannot express how beautiful this film is. See more Kleber d Oct 1 Mais um daqueles clássicos da Sessão da Tarde. Lembro-me de tantas vezes sentar no sofá para assistir, e agora, mais de 30 anos após seu lançamento, me deparo com este filme pipoca novamente. Bill Murray (Phil) e Andie MacDowell (Rita) formam aquele casal de extremos opostos: ele, arrogante, egocêntrico, sem dar muito valor a qualquer coisa em sua vida além de si mesmo; ela, doce, gentil, empática, valorizando o simples da vida e as pessoas ao seu redor. Embarcamos na jornada de Phil, revivendo com ele o mesmo dia repetidamente até que ele perceba o que o levou a uma vida solitária e narcisista. As atuações são impecáveis e talentosas. Bill Murray, com suas mudanças drásticas de humor, nos faz acreditar em cada uma das facetas de Phil: do mal-humorado ao incrédulo, passando pelo desesperado, dramático e, finalmente, romântico. Andie MacDowell não fica atrás, trazendo uma mulher genuinamente boa, como a musa descrita nos poemas mais apaixonantes. A direção entrega takes envolventes, aproveitando a paisagem soturna de neve e ambientes luminosos quando convém. Além disso, escapa da monotonia comum em enredos de loop temporal, com cortes inteligentes e cruciais que evitam repetir o dia desde o primeiro minuto. Feitiço do Tempo é aquele passatempo gostoso, como um café com biscoitos na casa da vó, um dia de chuva deitado na cama, um casal abraçado sem ver o tempo passar. Tudo isso de forma apaixonante, com uma mensagem poderosa sobre empatia e sobre como as coisas simples da vida podem ser incríveis, basta deixarmos nossa vaidade de lado. See more Read all reviews
