Summary: Very Funny
Review: Bruce Willis always plays a great part! This is no exception. He's great in any action flick he's ever done, and he won't let you down in this comedy. He's so serious, you just can't help but laugh!

Summary: The Whole Five Stars
Review: What can I say? I haven't enjoyed a humorous film in awhile until I got this DVD. I admit, I had heard it was pretty funny when it came out to theatres, but never bothered to see it. After growing on Matthew Perry's comic style, I decided to purchase it and wasn't disappointed!Although Perry's character is one of the main characters, all of the characters are well introduced and bring their humor into the move just as well. I found myself to be laughing out loud to some of the ridiculous things that happened. It's a pretty short movie, which surprised me, but it is just the right length where you wouldn't get bored with pointless scenes and are able to watch it again. One of my favorite movies. Definitely worth the purchase.

Summary: Great comedy
Review: I personally loved this movie and was surprised about the others who didnt like it. This is really black humor and if you like black humor, its at its best. Mathew Perry i thought was very good in this movie and also bruce willis who played his part really well. The story was really twisted but all that mattered was enjoying it and having fun watching it. If your looking for a good laugh, rent this movie. You'll love it!!!

Summary: Black "Comedy" Glorifies manipulative and sinister behavior.
Review: Comedy and Mafia are rarely two words that go well together. especially where villains are the good guys. There are exceptions of course like Steve Martin's wonderful "My Blue Heaven", and "The Freshman" starring Matthew Broderick but "The Whole Nine Yards" Seems to portray people who are manipulative, violent, coldhearted and cruel as "lovable wacky guys who just happen to live on the wrong side of the tracks". and to me this is rather alarming as there have been more of these portrayals in hollywood lately. Don't get me wrong, there are true lovable scoundrels abound in fiction but Bruce Willis is NOT one of them. Amanda Peet's 'sweet' assassin-wanabe character almost worked up until the very end of the film where she too, became infected with the filmwriters disturbing fascination for domination over their fellow man. True, you can't have a black comedy without people suffering horrible fates, sometimes worse than death, that's the black part. But good comedy relates to the viewer, black, white, or blue, that everything works out in the end, the villains get their just deserts for being villains, and the heroes get their just deserts for putting up with the villains. Instead, the villains through use of physical force, bullying, and manipulation, get the upper hand, and the wimpy character played by Matthew Perry gets true love and a meager slice of the mob money. Ok, so I may be your typical "American Moviegoer" who doesn't like to see a bad ending and want everything to be Disneyfied. Pardon my french but "Au Contrair", I was one of the very few who considered Aliens three to be a masterpiece BECAUSE everyone died, it was a fitting end for all the characters in that world because it was a dark world, and a HORROR movie and I would expect such a dismal point of view going into the film. At the end of "The whole nine yards" I was *REALLY* hoping that an FBI investigator tapped Bruce and Amanda's shoulder while they were celebrating their victory, but alas, I feel like I am being told that jerks who push people around CAN and DO win, even in movies. In short, if you're really itching for a good comedy, don't scratch it with this movie, you'll get infected with poisonous views, sick morals, and will end up with a turned stomach.

Summary: Downfall of Bruce Willis!
Review: The trailor of this movie made me believe that this movie is not to be missed..! But frankly the best of the movie is only what you see in the trailor and the remaining is very poor! The downfalls of this movie in my opinion are as follows: 1. Lack of action. 2. Lack of drama. 3. Weak story. 4. Lack of humor. 5. Lack entertainment! Bruce Willis had so many successful roles but not in this one... not because his acting was bad but the whole movie is weak. You cannot compare this movie to Robert De Niro's "Analyze This" at all. The idea of the story is fine but how the story develops and takes place makes the movie weak. If you are looking for a nice commedy, go and buy Robert De Niro's "Analyze This" instead!

Summary: Lightwieght but very entertaining comedy
Review: I thought this film was very well-made,nothing special,but a good diversion.Matthew Perry is an excellant physical comedian,and his talent shines here.He's basically playing the same character he does on "Friends",that of a foppishly likable guy who finds himself in rather absurd circumstances,and who uses his wit and charm to escape by the seat of his pants.The rest of the cast is great,too,especially Bruce Willis as an urbane hitman,and Amanda Peet as a sassy,lethal mafia-groupie.This isn't the best comedy ever,and the rather ponderous plot is unesessarily convoluted,but it makes for an entertaining way to kill an hour-and-a-half(plus there's one particular scene involving Amanda Peet that will give you a profound gratitude for yor DVD player's jitter-free freeze-frame feature-buy the DVD,and you'll see what I mean.)

Summary: Physical Comedy at its best!
Review: A movie where everybody wants to kill everybody, what could be funnier than that! This is one of the funniest movies of the year, and the cast is incredible together. Matthew Perry provides a calibur of physical comedy that is unlike any other. My brothers and I can watch the part where he runs into the door, over and over in slow motion and it is funnier every time. This movie isn't necessarily one that you need to own on DVD but, the DVD offers some cool special features. There are interviews with the cast members and the option for feature length audio commentary with Jonathan Lynn.

Summary: More than what you think
Review: There are movies that are not great compared to some of thegreat ones, but that are especial in their own way. Well, the WholeNine Yards is one of them. More than funny (which it is), this movieis likeable and highly entertaining. But more importantly, it is oneof those rare movies that puts you in a great mood when you watch it.That is actually the main reason why I like it. Picture this: youhave had a terrible day at work or school and need a movie pic-me-up.You pop The Whole Nine Yards into the DVD or VHS and watch it... well,about two hours later you are feeling ... a lot better... chippereven. Take my word for it... it works!!!! And not a lot of moviescan do this to me. I do want to point out Amanda Peet'sperformance... very funny, great acting... she nailed her character.
