Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

invisibleunicornninja Maybe this movie gets better after the 20 minute mark, but somehow I doubt that. This movie is very boring. The acting is bad, and nothing happens. I didn't finish watching this movie, but there is nothing that made me even remotely interested in this movie. I would not recommend this movie.

grantss A criminal gang, made up of George, his girlfriend Wanda and their associate Ken, are planning a massive diamond heist. Wanda brings in a fourth member, Otto, who she claims is her brother. In reality, Otto is her lover and the two are planning to double-cross George and Ken.Brilliantly clever and funny. Written by John Cleese, and you can see the Pythonesque touches in the script. Helps too that John Cleese and Michael Palin have prominent roles in the cast.Solid plot, so works pretty well as a crime-caper and not just as a comedy.Good performances from a star-studded cast: John Cleese, Jamie-Lee Curtis (as Wanda), Michael Palin (as Ken). However, it is Kevin Kline, as Otto, who steals the show. Incredibly funny and well deserved his Best Supporting Actor Oscar.

SimonJack Please note that this review definitely has spoilers. "A Fish Called Wanda" is one of the funniest films ever made. If ever there were a perfect match of a perfect cast and perfect plot, this would have to be it, or close to it. The four leads are hilarious in painfully funny (as in gut-splitting) roles. The film would be considerably less with any one of them missing. Kevin Kline won an Oscar for his best supporting actor role as Otto. It is one of the funniest roles ever concocted, and Kline plays it perfectly. But, very close to him is Michael Palin and his role as Ken Pile. The horror on his face after each mishap in which he "knocks off" one of the lady witness's dogs is too much. John Cleese plays Archie Leach, a hen-pecked husband who married into the upper class of England. He's a barrister who has never known anything exciting in life. His is a different humor, and he is hilarious as the somewhat naïve barrister who's slow to catch on to things. Of course, it is Cleese's comic genius that created the story and screenplay, with some help. Jamie Lee Curtis, as Wanda Gershwitz, may be the brains behind the whole caper and story as it evolves. She's also little more than an opportunist who will use any guy to get her millions. She's not cold- hearted, but cunning and conniving. She sells out her boyfriend who was the mastermind of the big robbery caper. And, she is aroused by men who speak in foreign tongues. Otto and Archie accommodate her accordingly, in Italian and Russian, respectively. The scenes are terribly funny. But this film doesn't end with those leads. Some minor characters add considerably to the humor. Maria Aitken's role as Wendy, Archie's wife, is quite funny. Tom Georgeson is very funny as the robbery plotter George Thomason, especially when he realizes that Wanda has sold him out. Geoffrey Palmer is the judge in Thomason's trial. Some of the funniest scenes in the film are between Otto and Ken. These are side-splitting scenes. Make no mistake about it – this film is adult. But it's not raunchy, vulgar or because of explicit sex scenes. The movie takes on political correctness, and has scenes that may offend some people who take things far too seriously and can't laugh at foibles in areas that are important to them. So, humorless dog and animal lovers probably shouldn't watch this film. That's also part of the reason it's not a good film for children. But when those kids get older and if they become mature, this is one film they should see for its wonderful laughter-inducing humor.

adonis98-743-186503 In London, four very different people team up to commit armed robbery, then try to doublecross each other for the loot. A Fish Called Wanda is one of those films that i expected to like and i really wanted to be honest especially when Jamie Lee Curtis stars who in my opinion is one of the best actors from this film especially her work in Halloween and True Lies was fantastic but in here not even her looks can save this. John Cleese and Kevin Kline are also pretty horrible too with many of their lines or the comedic lines as i should call them were boring and unfunny. The characters are thin ad feel like they were written on foot and the jokes were stupid as hell. It's like Mr.Bean but not funny in any way at all. Such a disappointing movie. (2/10)
