Summary: A laugh out loud video!!
Review: The first time i saw this movie i was in a movie theater and i couldn't stop laughing! I knew that i had to get the tape so i did. It is a little confusing in the very begining but once you see it a second time it makes a lot more sense. It's about Bill Murray's character who is brother's with Peter Gallagher's character. Bill goes to England(where his brother lives)for Bill's birthday. Peter gives him a ticket to "the theater of life"- a performance you play as the main character. In the performance, it takes you around town acting as if it were real life only there are actors everywhere to help you along the way. It sounds confusing but you'll understand when you see it. Anyway, Bill loves the present but somethng goes wrong. Bill get's mixed up with the wrong people who think he's a killer but Bill thinks it's all part of "the theater of life". but it's not the performance, it's real life! Bill get's close to dying so many times but he doesn't even realize how much danger he's in. All throughout the movie Bill thinks it's just a performance. In the end everything turns out fine and he even get's the girl! The only thing i didn't like was that Peter Gallagher was Bill Murray's brother, they don't look anything alike and Peter's really ugly! But other than that it was a hilarious movie and you're really missing out if you haven't seen it! go see it now before it's too late!

Summary: Halarious!
Review: No, it's not the classic Hitchcock film, but a halarious comedy of errors starring the genius Bill Murray (Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day). In one of his less offbeat roles, Murray does the not-too-bright guy shtick, providing for some great laughs. The simple plot finds Murray's character mistake real life antics for a pre-planned reality game show, full with high-speed chases, explosions and the mafia! I rented this from the video store and I cracked up watching it, it's just so funny! I just HAD to buy it! Sure, it's silly, but it's got enough wild humour to satisfy comedy fans. Watch it, and find yourself laughing away at the insane gags and brilliant comedic style. Fantastic stuff!

Summary: A COMEDY OF ERRORS IN LONDON. FUNNY ACTION YARN!
Review: Wally Ritchie (Murray) flies from America to visit his brother James in London for his birthday. However James has a business meeting and needs Wally out of the way for the evening. He books Wally onto a new an audience participation TV show where actual people get to be a part of a real enactment. Wally answers the wrong phone call and is mistaken for hitman Spenser. Following the instructions of the call, Wally becomes involved in a plot to start the cold war again by killing a mix of Ambassadors. Blissfully unaware Wally sets out to foil the plot.If you were reading above, you'd know that the plot is mush and ludicrous, and even if you take it seriously, all the pieces don't fit together and the plot doesn't make a lot of sense. However once you learn to overlook the nonsense -- and the humor helps you (e.g., Murray asks at the airport: "Which door leads to England?") â€" this is all about Wally stumbling from one misunderstanding to another lucky occurrence. We're not in the realms of classic comedy here and it certainly isn't hilarious. Rather it's funny and enjoyable if you suspend disbelief. Murray is the film's saving grace. He stumbles around so very well and makes even the most basic misunderstanding funny. Gallagher is a passable straightman and Walley-Kilmer is decent but really suffers from having to share a screen with Murray. A fleet of British faces make up the rest of the cast â€" from Molina, Wilson, Woodeson to the sublime John Thomson and faces like Dexter Fletcher. Overall this isn't the funniest thing you'll ever see, but it is enjoyable and will make you smile for 90 minutes, even if the belly laughs are less often than you'd like. Murray runs the show and brings laughs out of the least inspired routines. Well worth a watch if you're in a silly, undemanding mood.

Summary: First of all...I loved it.
Review: First of all....I loved it. Simply put, this film was great. Talk about a story that could have been based upon true life incidents is not what this film is about. This is comedy at its best. Bill Murray's character is a man who manages a Blockbuster-video store someplace in Iowa. Murray decides to take a vacation and visit his brother in London. His brother (Peter Gallagher) is entertaining some important clients that same evening and sends his brother (Murray) out to participate in this audience-interaction play involving spies called the `Theater of Life'. Well, as the play begins, Murray accidentally stumbles into a real-life spy drama and takes everything that happens next as if he is just acting in a play. The result is non-stop humor which leaves the audience busting up outloud. You don't have to love Bill Murray to love this film...he brings to the screen the best parts of his roles in "Scrooged", "Stripes", "Ground Hog Day" and "What About Bob"...you just have to be ready to experience Bill Murray at his best. Bottom line, what might even be funnier than the film, is being part of an uninhibited audience, because once some people begin laughing, they will be at it for the next two hours.

Summary: Delicious Desert for Bill Murray Fans
Review: This is an enjoyable, lightweight Blake Edwards-style farce that gave me plenty of belly laughs. Bill Murray is such a good comic actor that he takes what ought to be a one-joke pastiche and milks it for every last drop of comedy. I've seen bumbling detectives and secret agent spoofs before, but Murray turns this into something special. I wouldn't rate it as highly as "Ghostbusters" or "Groundhog Day" but "The Man Who Knew Too Little" is enough of an overlooked gem for me to recommend it.

Summary: Funny, but not that Funny!
Review: This was an okay comedy that I caught for the first time on HBO the other day. It had it's funny moments, but they could have done so much more with interesting plot and situations that they had to use. I liked the idea of the movie and I'm a pretty big Bill Murray fan, so I was a little let down by the overall outcome. Check it out for free on T.V.

Summary: Hilarious, plain and simple
Review: There's really no other way to describe this movie. It's a very well written, humorous comedy about a man who thinks he's gone to a play where normal people can take part in the drama. He doesn't realize, though, that he is actually taking part in a very real, very literal conflict which could get him killed. Oblivious to all the danger, he wanders through what he believes to be scenes from the play, nearly killing others - and almost himself - throughout the film. I laughed almost all the way through this funny drama. It has a great mix of action and laughs. I'd recommend it to anyone who has a love for comedy.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: This is, hands down, one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Starring Bill Murray and Peter Ghallagher (a very underrated actor) this movie is laughs from beginning to end. Bill Murray is an American who gets mixed up in a secret assasination plot while on vacation in England. But he doesn't even know anything's going on!
Hardcore laughs from beginning to end, this is one of Bill Murray's best. And I really like the soundtrack, too. The love theme is beautiful.
The only downfall is the complete lack of special features. Oh well.
