Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

pkpera I watched this on TV some 25 years ago and remembered as good satire. Spotted this days and made good decision: let's watch it, if nothing else, to refresh memories. It was worth of every minute - no there were no slow, dragging parts, as some reviewers said here. Pace and timing are perfect.From beginning was obvious that this will caricaturing big City life situations, style. Exiting from metro was hilarious, as many other scenes. Is it one of the reasons for low rating here ? You will not see some recent comedy like this. I could call it 'Modest masterpiece' - nothing bombastic, plain storytelling, no forced jokes, really - and that self is great thing. If just movies like Postman or Heaven's Gate were made with same approach - doesn't matter is it comedy or whatever. And as I see, this is made by book, and is remake. But nobody of reviewers did read book, is seems. Too bad that good things are so often less known. This movie really deserves more publicity.

utgard14 Three bank robbers pull off a seemingly perfect heist but their getaway is a comedy of errors as the trio struggles to make it out of New York City through one obstacle after another. This is one of the most underrated comedies of the '90s. It reminded me of my first experience in NYC. I got lost and freaked out. If you ever saw the Simpsons episode where Homer feared the city because he had a bad first visit there, that's pretty much how I remembered my first visit to the Big Apple. So during this movie when they get lost and have trouble finding someone to give them directions or they see the bizarre jousting match or the cabby who speaks no English, it speaks to me personally because of my experience. Obviously I don't expect everyone else to come to the movie with something similar to that, but I think it's still a hilarious film that you can enjoy on merit alone. The entire cast is perfect, with Bill Murray giving one of the best deadpan performances you'll ever see. It's a must-see for fans of Murray, Quaid, and Davis. Definitely recommended.

SimonJack "Quick Change" has a lot going for it. A comedy-crime-romance flick, it has lots of fresh, crisp lines that Bill Murray turns into many laughs. Randy Quaid's over-the-top outbursts of zaniness add more laughs. Then, several more characters add twists of humor throughout. Jason Robards appeared to be having fun making this film, and his remarks and wit brought smiles and laughter. As the cab driver, Tony Shalhoub, had some of the very funniest scenes. This hilarious romp has sight gags, great one-liners, zaniness and humor throughout. But the most poignant humor, I think, is in the spoofs. The script, with Murray at the helm, pretty much jabs at every aspect of life in the Big Apple. Traffic, police, organized crime, taxi service, workers, neighborhoods, and nationalities all get the poking-fun treatment. But for the profanity and coarse language in places, "Quick Change" might be a fun film for the whole family. This is a comedy – not a real-life crime and police drama. So, the few off-color lines seemed out of place or not to belong. Some script tweaking to replace those could have made the film even funnier. That would have led me to rate it a notch higher.

Sean Lamberger Bill Murray stars and directs in this inoffensive, lightweight black comedy about a band of would-be bank robbers caught in the middle of a rapidly unfurling master plan. The plot is typically loose, silly and predictable, a narrow-sighted exercise on the same level as Mr. Mom or Stir Crazy, but still manages to slip in a few biting observations about the period's culture... most of which are validated by Murray's deliciously sardonic delivery. Costars Geena Davis and Randy Quaid are often just along for the ride, though, delivering bad lines with all the subtlety of a brick to the face, and nobody ever seems to take their predicament terribly seriously. Practically bad but inexplicably charming, like many of its genre-mates from the late '80s, it's good for a few shockingly large laughs but wilts under closer examination.
