Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

callmemrbwana Did you ever see a comedy that is realistic? Comedy is usually an exaggeration of a situation that makes us laugh. When critics call it stupid, watch out. Most likely they did not get paid under the payola system. Here is another one movie that was killed by the critics that was sabotaged,,,,"Trapped in Paradise"If all comedy have to make sense, then from good Bob Hope movies up to the best ones in the last 30 years are all bad.People have your own freedom of thinking. IF YOU REALLY HATE IT on your own that's OK and better than listening to the so called experts or critics.

lawnmowermantx The thing that stood out in my mind, is the pool scene between Marty and the new buyer of the house. Marty was in therapy, groping the wife's leg, only to find she is in therapy too, asks if it hurts, then she returns the favor. ;) How dumb was the husband? HA HA. Then 'hubby breaks the pool' like it was hubby's fault. ;) The struggling of Mary Gross's character (of the attention she was getting) as she fell for Marty's ploy and her groping his thigh, wish I find a woman like that. It was my favorite classic scene of the whole movie. This movie did help Catherine O'Hara in being picked for the "Home Alone" movies. Jeff Daniels character proved himself in love for a woman to be betrayed by his girlfriend, only to be with Ms. O'Hara. :) Good love ending. P.D. or Penelopy Diane sweet blond wife wanting a man with money vs good girl Catherine O'Hara and Jeff Daniels wanting happiness with or without the money. (Which proves love wins out over ill gotten wealth.) I think I want to be a real estate agent! ha ha. :)

Thomas Robinson (bayernfussball) I'd give this movie an 8 for an original story, good acting, and some funny moments. The movie is certainly not a classic, but Jeff Daniels and Catherine O'Hara are both excellent and the movie has some genuinely funny moments.The thing that really makes this movie, though, is the supporting cast. Jeremy Piven has a funny, albeit small role. Hector Elizondo is funny as a scheming husband. Chazz Palminteri shows off some comedy chops and has some funny moments. While the gangsters are stereotypical, it does result in some laughs.Overall, this movie won't be among the all time greats nor will it necessarily make your top 10, but it is a good, funny movie to watch and worth the price of a rental.

noefresh This is one they roll out when there is absolutely nothing else to show on Cinemax daytime. You know a movie is bad when you can easily recognize a near total ripoff of the opening music from Beetlejuice during the opening credits along with a similar looking font and the appearance of Catherine O'hara. Tim Burton this aint. Avoid at all costs.
