Summary: Wish I could give it 5...
Review: First of all, I have to say that Bruce Willis is my absolute favorite actor. I own just about every movie he's been in. But I don't think I will be buying this one! "The Whole Nine Yards" has a very strange plot. Basically, everyone wants to kill Matthew Perry, but he doesn't know it. Bruce Willis' and Matthew Perry's acting are great as usual, but for some reason this movie just doesn't "take-off" very well. The plot moved WAY too fast for me - one minute I had it figured out, the next minute it was changing again. I also did not care at all for Amanda Peet. While I think she is a good actress, her character in the movie is terrible! She is actually hired by Rosanna Arquette to pose as Matthew Perry's secretary so she will have a chance to kill him! And she has this sick infatuation with mob hitmen. Personally, I think that's a little on the weird side! There are funny moments - Perry's physical comedy being the best. Michael Clarke Duncan is good, too. In short, the acting is good, but the story goes nowhere.

Summary: Low brow, but good
Review: Some comedies have universal appeal. This isn't one of them. That is not to say it isn't funny and entertaining, because it is. However, it takes a certain sense of humor to enjoy it. There are two facets to the humor. The first is the physical comedy of Matthew Perry, which is mostly pratfall humor. I enjoy such slapstick if it doesn't go overboard (like when he bangs his head on the steering wheel; the first time was funny the second time was overkill) but mostly Perry stays on the funny side of fatuous.The second facet was situational comedy where everyone was put in peculiar situations and forced to make decisions about how to behave. This was the stronger element of the film and though the dialogue was often weak, the situations were droll and often produced hysterical results. The directing by Jonathan Lynn was straightforward, giving Perry wide latitude on shaping his character and much of the comedy. From what I understand, Perry was improvising about half the time, which clearly gave the film a comedic boost. The acting was generally good. Bruce Willis plays the straight man as a contract killer with a sense of humor. Willis is always understated in his comedy roles, which was perfect considering Perry's antics. Mostly Bruce just looked tough and smirked a lot. Matthew Perry was full of energy and spontaneity. He tended to go overboard at times, but he produced a lot of great sight gags and frenetic humor, which more than compensated for his excesses. Michael Clarke Duncan once again makes a tough guy affable. I always enjoy his work. Natasha Henstridge took her role far too seriously, playing it more like a gangland drama than the comedy it was. Amanda Peet's main purpose in this film was to take her top off and create a distraction. In that regard, she succeeded nicely. Rounding out the cast was Rosanna Arquette, whose French accent was terrible, but she was amusingly nasty in the villain role. Overall, this was a good comedy for people who enjoy inane low brow humor. I am one of those people so I gave it a 7/10. However, for those looking for a snappy plot and intelligent dialogue, this film will probably disappoint.

Summary: Absolutely miserable.
Review: This is the first movie I have rented in many years that I had to stop watching mid-way through because it was so bad. It just wasn't funny. Matthew Perry is a very tiresome individual to watch at the best of times and this was no exception. Not one of the characters was remotely appealing, I couldn't have cared less what happened to any of them. The humor seemed to be targeted at people who would enjoy a movie like Goonies. Boring, childish rubbish. If Amazon offered a "zero stars" rating, I'd have given it that.

Summary: Rent before you buy
Review: This is one of those films that you have to rent before you buy. The movie would have gotten three stars if they had not made a few bad casting decisions. Perry's character should have been named Chandler. He should just stick to Friends. When the show goes off the air he should too. It's one thing to be type-cast, but it's another to only be able to play one character regardless of what the script calls for. He made this film painful to watch. Arquette's character was also incredibly annoying in this film. Her accent was enough to make you want to mute the scenes that she was in. On a brighter note, the hitmen were all very well cast and were the only thing that saved this movie from a single star rating. Peet's character was great - very sexy and very funny. Pollack's character was wery vonderful.

Summary: One laugh after another in an unbelievably funny film!
Review: The Whole Nine Yards proved to be one of the funniest films I've ever seen. There are lines that keep you constantly laughing. Matthew Perry easily steals the film from Bruce Willis and Academy Award nominee Michael Clarke Duncan. Solid cast with clever writing & great directing. A definite must own for any comedy fan!

Summary: GOOD, FUNNY MOVIE!
Review: I thought that, as with Matthew Perrys' other movie outing that I've seen,( The ABISMAL 'Fools Rush In') that all this movie would end up being is another 'Matthew Perry, playing Chandler in a movie' with a bad script. I was pleasantly surprised. Although Perry DOES ham it up a bit but not in 'Chandler' mode! There are a couple of genuinely hilairious moments, look out for when he leaves for work on the first day - its a masterpiece! The story is not the strongest, ever, but it has its moments. It is very basic story formula: Matt Perrys' character is hated by his wife Bruce willis' character moves in next door( he is a hitman) Matt Perry gets thrown around. A lot. Thats all you really need to know. This film is quite predictable, but on a whole, a good evenings' entertainment. If you like Friends, youll LOVE this movie.

Summary: Enjoyable
Review: "The Whole Nine Yards" is a good film, it's just not as funny as it could have been. The actors in the film (including Bruce Willis, Mathew Perry, etc.) seem to have had a lot of fun making this film, and it's fun to watch as well, but a lot of the humor seems forced and a bit unoriginal. Some scenes, however, are hilarious, and Amanda Peet's over-the-top performance alone makes this film worth seeing. It's not the funniest film you'll see (or even get close for that matter), but it's a good film worth seeing.

Summary: Entertaining Comedy Caper!
Review: This movie has its funny moments and likable characters. While it doesn't start off well, it get better. Bruce Willis is a little off beat playing the hitman, he isn't used to comedy, but when jokes are built around him, instead of by him, they almost always work. Mathew Perry is OK as the bumbling dentist, and he does deliver some heavy laughs. The rest of the cast is OK, but Amanda Peete almost steals the movie as the hitman-wannabe, once she's onscreen, the movie takes up it's charm. Patricia Arquette and Kevin Pollack seem to be competing on who does the phoniest accent or who creates the unfunniest character. Michael Clark Duncan and Natasha Henstridge are also good in support. While the pace drags at times, it ultimately delivers the laughs. From a scale of 1-10 I give this film a 6!
