Did you ever wonder what happens to Henry Hill after the Good Fellows? I know I did it. My Blue Heaven is an ironic parody of the witness relocation program. For Vinnie (Steve Martin) ‘a boy from the city that never sleeps it is a living hell’.

Vinnie and his wife are in the witness relocation program. They are moved into the town, that for him never existed on the map until now. The FBI puts them up in the nice house with nice neighbors, but as they say ‘old habits die hard’. Vinnie is trying to tip the FBI agent Barney (Rick Moranis), find a business that he is good at, lie, cheat and all the other things that make the life worth living (for him).

He even meets up with another woman after his wife leaves and marries her under a different name. Things are going great and his new life is becoming fun and exciting again. He finds out that there are some friends of his, who are in the relocation program as well and starts a little company. Everybody is fund of Vinnie except the prosecutor (Joan Cusack), who is constantly on his case.

To ease things a bit, Vinnie decides to get Barney and the prosecutor together. The two develop a liking for one another and the things go well until certain events start to happen. Well, the events couldn’t happen without Vinnie. There are good times, bad times and there are Vinnie times.

The movie is great. I love this comedy. Steve Martin and Rick Moranis are perfect together. There is no better twist then to have a mobster trying to fit in with a regular suburb neighborhood. Some of the lines are incredible and we still keep on repeating them in my circle of friends.

Arugula, I haven’t had arugula for a while.
What is Arugula?
It is a V-E-G-E-T-A-B-L-E

You don’t tip FBI agent.
Sure you do.

You should not be in the frozen food section.
Why?
Because… You could melt all this stuff.

I don’t believe in tipping, I believe in over tipping.


Overall this movie is funny, entertaining and even has some dancing. If you like Mafia movies and Comedy, this one is definitely for you. I enjoy this movie every time I watch it and always find new things that I haven't seen previously. I highly recommend this one.
