Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times 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. Feb 4, 2023 Full Review Peter Stack San Francisco Chronicle This delightful romantic comedy, directed by Harold Ramis, is rich in fantasy and unexpectedly funny twists. Rated: 4/4 Jan 11, 2023 Full Review Joe Holleman St. Louis Post-Dispatch Groundhog Day is a charming and hilarious film. Or did I already say that? Anyway, it is worth repeating. Dec 21, 2022 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation Sublime Rated: 3.5/4 Apr 23, 2023 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness 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. Jan 20, 2023 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Nothing suggested that this would gather steam over time and emerge as one of the most respected comedies of the past 30 years. Rated: 3.5/4 Jan 14, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Tam W Not bad, but not great either. Worth watching at least once, but was over hyped IMO. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/15/24 Full Review Julian Rex M Far from vapid, but in no way meaningful, Groundhog Day spins a trailblazer in story structure while a truly compelling theme is content to take the backseat. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/09/24 Full Review Mark M Great Cast. Interesting Story. “Too early for flap jacks?” Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review Sharang L Loved it! Why don't they make such movies anymore? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review Audience Member A quintessential comedic classic with a wonderful script! The premise, setting, and Bill Murray’s marvelous performance classify Groundhog Day in the comedy top tier. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/19/24 Full Review Ray S Bill Murray excelente, una gran comedia que revela los matices de la humanidad. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Read all reviews
