Rating: Summary: Silly Billy! Review: Bill Murray is his silliest as Bob Wiley in WHAT ABOUT BOB?. Wiley has a few mental handicaps. He has what is called Tourette's Syndrome which is when a person exclaims angrily or frustratedly. He has a phobia of touching things previously handled by other people with bare hands so he uses handkerchiefs,gloves,napkins or paper towels. Wiley's psychiatrist quits his paractice and Wiley is referred to another psychiatrist,Leo Marvin(Richard Dreyfuss). Dr. Marvin wrote a book called Baby Steps and gives a copy to Wiley when visiting Dr. Marvin. "That should give you a lot to digest while I'm on vacation." says Marvin. After Dr. Marvin,his wife Faye(Julie Hagerty),and their two kids retreat to their vacation home in Lake Winnipesaukee,Wiley shows up at the retreat,shockingly surprising Leo. Leo was told that Wiley committed suicide,but Wiley's arrival proved that untrue. Wiley endears himself to Faye and the Marvins' children Sigmund(or Siggy) and Anna. Leo was scheduled to make an appearance on TV's Good Morning America. Joan Lunden has a cameo. Wiley and Leo were not supposed to meet again until after Labor Day when Leo resumes his practice. Leo increasingly becomes upset with Wiley that Leo kicks Wiley out of the house(Wiley was sworn in as a house guest at the suggestion of Faye). Wiley appeared with Leo on GMA. Leo was raving about the success of his book. He was asked how Baby Steps made a sudden,wonderful impact on Bob. Bob quipps,"Mashed potatoes and gravy". Leo's family commended Leo on a wonderful job he did. This is where Leo kicks Bob out. Leo said Bob was a disaster. Leo drives Bob to a mental hospital managed by a friend of his. Bob is sworn in as a patient and then telling the other patients jokes and making them laugh. Bob is discharged and is driven back to the Marvins' house. Leo returns home to a surprise birthday party,one of the guests being his sister Lili from Chicago. When Leo spots Bob,Leo jumps on Bob and the two roll around and wrestle. Bob then undergoes a "death therapy" session. That was Leo ties Bob up,surrounded by loose gunpowder. Leo promises to take care of Gil,Bob's pet fish."I'll feed him 'til he's big and fat! Then I'll eat him!".Bob wonderfully beat the explosion untying himself before the "kaboom",but,some of the gunpowder ended up in the Marvins' house,destroying it upon the explosion. Leo is in a mental hospital,the same one he committed Bob to in an earlier scene,in a wheelchair! He is hardly attentive even at the wedding in the last scene. Bob and Lili become husband and wife making Bob and Leo brothers-in-law. When the reverend asked if there was any reason why this couple should not be united in holy matrimony,Leo emerged from his "coma",dressed in pajamas and robe and still in the wheelchair. Sigmund exclaimed,"Dad's back!". The film-end notes claim that Bob went back to school and became a psychiatrist. He also wrote a huge best-seller entitled "Death Therapy". Leo planned to sue him for the rights. The film was directed by Frank Oz who previously directed DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS and would after this film,direct HOUSESITTER.
Rating: Summary: A great comedy Review: If you're looking for a funny movie to sit down and watch some evening, here it is! This has got to be one of my favorite comedies. Thank goodness I didn't take the advice of a friend, who told me there was only one funny scene in the movie ("I'm a sailor!"). That was his opinion. My opinion is practically every scene is funny.The story is about a man named Bob who has a fear of nearly everything. After wading through gobs of psychiatrists, he finally finds one that he thinks can help him - but the man is going on vacation for a month! Fearing to be alone without the guidance of his newfound teacher, Bob embarks on a wild quest to find the shrink and continue to seek help. Unfortunately, when Bob succeeds, he ends up driving his doctor a little...crazy. This is a great movie that I plan on watching again in the future. While I realize the DVD isn't loaded with special features like many others are, I think the story alone is worth the cheap price that Amazon's currently selling the movie for.
Rating: Summary: Rolled over Laughing Review: I think this is the funnist movie I ever seen Bill Murray in it sure beat's ground hog's day which i thought just draged along but i can't depute that Bill Murray is one great actor and i think he's underrated at times but anyways if you want a funny movie you have to see this it rank's up there with Tommy Boy and me myself and Iren with Jim Carry im my opion
Rating: Summary: Hilarious Review: I thought this film was hilarious, my two friends watching with me said it was pants. Bill Murray is very funny as seriously neurotic Bob and Richard Dreyfuss also very good as the increasingly desperate shrink.
Rating: Summary: Great Movie, Disappointing DVD Review: As "What About Bob" is one of my favorite films of all time, I was excited that it finally was released on DVD. But what I wasn't expecting was how little there is on the DVD besides the actual movie. Maybe I'm spoiled by added features on movies like "Star Wars: Attack of the Clones" documentaries, or my funny commentary tracks as in "Two Weeks Notice" with Hugh Grant and Sandy Bullock. But I really was hoping to see an option on this DVD to have Bill Murray give commentary. *sigh*
Rating: Summary: This is just a great Bill Murray Movie Review: Bill Murray plays the lovable obsessive compulsive Bob and Richard Dreyfuss portrays the dangerous psychiatrist Dr. Leo Marvin too well. They make a great duo onscreen and an even better film. This is one of Bill Murray's best movies and I would definitely recommend it.
Rating: Summary: "Its Death thearopy Bob!" "Oh should i put my hands up?" Review: IT was VERY, funny keep your children away from the torrets syndrome scene=) Really!
