Summary: "Hi Morty", "My name is Muerte!!"
Review: The Amazon critic who reviewed this film called it "unfortunate." I think the only unfortunate thing about this movie is that critic's didn't seem to enjoy it. I've seen it many times and it always leaves me laughing. Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid are such a great pairing for a film of this type, and though the shenanigans they engage in with their baby may be questionable in these very protective and "Never allow anyone their own chance for personal responsibility" times - it is still a cute and entertaining movie.

Summary: Surprising, Suspenseful and Funny
Review: Undercover Blues is one of the funniest movies
we've ever seen. We've watched it so much, the tape is wearing out. There is action without gore, funny situations and unexpected twists and turns. It is worth watching just to see Stanley Tucci as "Muerte,'" the bumbling criminal who is a hilarious thorn in the side of the Blues (played by Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid). I just wish it would come out on DVD! It's a great movie to buy now, too, because it's so inexpensive. See It!

Summary: A movie that seemed to have a script
Review: UNDERCOVER BLUES was a movie that seemed to have a script; flawed script as it was. I bought this movie to watch the likes of Bacalique Kathleen Turner and that movie star, Quaid. I saw them--with a baby to tend-- try to stage a spy-comedy story, but strangely the outcome reminded me of 101 Dalmations. REALLY! Lucky for an audience was this comic character, Stanley Tucci, who stole the show. Otherwise, Turner and Quaid--CIA Undercover--were too, too suave for spy characters. Their James Bond quip comedy lines just didn't work. Here is another movie that couldn't make up its' mind: is it a comedy, drama, suspense, mystery, n'importe quoi kind of story. Nevertheless, for all of its' flaws, UNDERCOVER moves along and keeps your attention. You are going to laugh somewhere along the line. And keep your eye out for Cruella. She's there with her sort of funny bad guys.

Summary: Poor!
Review: I couldn't even get through the first 1/3 of this movie. The jokes are not here. The acting is poor. For an action comedy, where is the comedy?The worst part is the script. So hackneyed and formulaic, one has to wonder, where did this guy learn how to write?

Summary: One of the funniest movies ever!
Review: This is without doubt my favorite comedy-espionage movie, much funnier than either Austin Powers film. Dennis Quaid and Kathleen Turner are terrific and the supporting cast is hilarious, too. Morty/Muerte is a riot and the ending is perfect. With the exception of one use of the f-word, there's nothing objectionable since most of the violence is somewhat light-hearted, from the stroller self-defense right down to the mud-fight at the end. It's too bad the critics blasted it and the box office was small or I could look forward to a sequel.

Summary: Comedy & Action Can't Get Any Better
Review: ... Most movies these days find themselves stuck in a single genre. Action films are one explosion and gun fight after another. Comedies are becoming dry with many punch lines, but a lack of setup. I'm sorry but it seems like Hollywood is running out of ideas... "Undercover Blues" is a espionage comedy like no other. It blends action and adventure with the class and wit of a truly great comedy. Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid (Jane and Jeff Blue) are a hilariously unstoppable duo trying to stop an eccentric international criminal mastermind and recover the world's most dangerous plastic explosives, C-22. While at the same time, trying to raise their year old daughter. Along with the couple's wit and charm, Stanley Tucci plays a "feared" street thug who is constantly stopped by the Blues with little effort and plenty of laughs. "Undercover Blues" may not be the greatest film of all time, but it is a fantastically fun movie, and defiantly a great film to own and treasure for years to come.

Summary: Great entertainment -- top notch humor and action
Review: Watch "Undercover Blues" and meet an amiable husband and wife spy team (played by Turner and Quaid) who are on leave in New Orleans soon after the birth of their first child. Turner is a crack shot and master of disguise, and Quaid is, well, he's just a bit cracked. Along the way Quaid meets up with a local wanna-be bad guy (played by Tucci - the hidden jewel of the movie!) who calls himself "Muerte," and their paths continue to cross throughout the movie. The scenes with Muerte provide laugh-out loud comic relief. You'll love their first meeting -- including the knife fight. Well, it's not long before Quaid and Turner are called back into service to take care of a potential international incident involving former eastern block intelligence agents and smuggled military secrets, among other things. This part of the story is pretty ho-hum, but Muerte keeps things hopping. You'll also enjoy the good old time that they have with the New Orleans Police! Great fun. This movie is definitely worth 5-stars for fun, but other aspects of the storyline drop the overall score to around 4 stars. My favorite line is when a police lt. says to Quaid, "You think you're smarter than us don't you!?" Quaid responds, "Oh, not much." Have a great day....

Summary: Good, good fun
Review: Is this great art? Will this film be remembered in 100 years as one of the best works of cinematography of the 20th Century? Will Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid identify this as the high points of their careers? No, on all counts. On the other hand, is this good, solid fun? Is it suitable for all audiences? Does it have a high degree of rewatchability? Can you throw it in the VCR at any time and get some smiles, some laughs, and a giggle or two? Absolutely. This is a steal on VHS. So when's the DVD coming out?

Summary: Comedy the Way it Should Be
Review: Can't say enough about this movie. Should be in every collection. Would love to see it make it to DVD (soon?). Quaid and Turner are a great team and the laughs are nonstop. We have to stop and rewind the tape because we're laughing so hard we can't hear it! Made for those of us who don't find the "new breed" of comic very comical and love wise cracking humour.

Summary: One of my All-Time Favorite Movies
Review: "My name is Muerte!" "Nice to meet you Morty, my name is Jeff." Somthing tells me that the Amazon Editorial Reviewer didn't pay much attention to this gem of a movie. For one thing, the baby is an 11 month old girl, not a year old boy. In fact, one of the running gags is the parents' inability to agree on a name for their precious daughter (Jane Louise or Louise Jane). The action is anything but formulaic. How often do we see a man holding a baby successfully defend himself against two knife-wielding muggers? The cast is wonderful. Dennis and Kathleen are perfectly matched as quick-witted, devoted spouses. Their on-screen chemistry is delightful. Stanley Tucci's inspired performace is hilarious and scene-stealing. Tom Arnold turns in a funny and understated supporting part, and Larry Miller has quite a bit of fun as the bumbling Sgt. Halsey. Herbert Ross deserves a special Oscar for helming this movie! There are few movies that I can watch over and over again and still adore. The Princess Pride, Pride & Prejudice, Speechless, and Undercover Blues top a very short list. I've recommended Undercover Blues to all sorts of different people and every single person has adored it. Ignore the critics and see it for yourself!
