Summary: Let's have more laughter!
Review: In an age where there is so much rotten stuff going on in the world it is refreshing to see a good comedy that makes you laugh, no matter what the story line may be or if it makes sense. Bill Murray plays this part like it is an award winner, making the most out of a situation that is, at best, impossible. That is what makes it entertainment - slashings and murders and people with horrid lives is not entertainment in my book. I can get that from the newspapers or evening news every day. Hurrah for Bill Murray and his talent for making me laugh. The movie is a Repeat Watch at my house.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must buy this "Classic"
Review: I was browsing the "comedy section" at a video store and saw the movie "The Man Who Knew Too Little". Being that Bill Murray was in it, I couldn't resist. I also couldn't recall that this movie was a hit at all at the box office - probably due to the fact that the title sucks. I watched this movie with my wife and found it to be one of the best comedy flicks of all time. The situations that Bill Murray was in as an unsuspecting tourist in the middle of a spy ring was believable (in a laid back-comedic way). This movie contains great lines and acting that totals up to a powerful combination to make this movie, in my opinion, an automatic classic movie. The next day, by the way, I bought the movie. Excellent!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bill Murray at his best
Review: This show is hilarious. It is a perfect family show because there is little or no vulgarity. Bill Murray is hysterical as an unsuspecting mid westerner who has stumbled onto a major assassination plot in London. He has no idea what is really going on and yet plays the part beautifully to the end. We laughed so hard during one part we had tears in our eyes. He is one of the great comedic men and according to my friend who has actually met him, he's this funny in real life too.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Terrible. Don't waste your time.
Review: Bill Murray can be very funny if the material is good. This is the only comedy I have ever seen that was so bad that, towards the end, I just closed my eyes and hoped and prayed that it would just end. (I saw it with some friends, and couldn't just walk out, and go home.) People who laugh at this stuff probably also think the phone book is hilarious.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Murray does it again
Review: Buy and see the movie first, then read the reviews. You will not be disappointed! It is Bill at his best. Am puzzled that it was never given any real publicity. The pic ranks with his top flics and deserves to be on your shelf or in your cabinet. DVD is the way to go, 'cause this is a keeper. Get out the popcorn and have fun time. Cheers

Summary: amazon review is wrong
Review: I don't know why this movie wasn't bigger than "Something About Mary." It is so funny and clever. I hardly ever buy movies, but I want this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Movie Rocks!
Review: This show is hillarious. It is textbook Murray. I plan on seeing a thousand times.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bill Murray lights up the screen in this "classic" movie
Review: Personally I love this movie! Bill Murray is so good in this comedy. It is about this guy who thinks he is in this play but he encounters this evil plot against the ambasadors that will be visiting.

I am thirteen years old and consider this a hilarious movie. However, through all the laughter, in the introductary scene of the leading lady you see her in a low cut dress that may be offending for some (see cover). Also in this scene when she thinks she is trying to keep from getting shot, she implies she will do things for him to get out of getting killed. That is ended quick though when Bill Murray doesn't catch her drift. Also there are some frightening scenes when Bill (as he thinks he's being the hero for some play) shoots his gun thinking it isn't real. I also want to say that there is a doctor of torture but no torture is really shown, just implied (electricity...). That is pretty much all that is questionable. This movie really is worth it though. It is a laugh-out-loud comedy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 96 minutes of movie
Review: This is the funniest movie of all time! Chock full o' Murray-isms (if you know Murray, than you know what I mean.) On a more personal note I'd like to give a shout out to all of my lobsters at Wal-Mart (you know who you are)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The plot is Murray's weapon
Review: Although generally people would expect Bill Murray to come again with the type of caricatured commedy like the one he presented in King Pin, his performance in this movie is underrated. He did not rely on his old repertoire of funny faces and ridiculous gestures to be funny (although during the Cossack dance he gives plenty of that). Rather, the story was the main weapon of this movie, in which one just could not easily find any other comedian to better fit the part. He is funny, his punch lines are more subtle and the remaining cast is very supportive. In my opinion, this is one of Murray's best comedies ever.
