The nastiest man on Epinions, felt like taking a rest from his wild exciting life, which features bare knuckle boxing, mountain climbing, and going 10 rounds with Arabian white tigers. I was feeling quite distraught so I flipped on the tele and saw a ...
Pros: There are a few weak laughs Cons: I don't see what's so funny about mobsters
Not that this isn't an amusing film, but I have to ask this question-what is Hollywood's current fascination with making comedies about mobsters? Is Tinseltown really so short on new ideas that movies about men who kill, maim, extort, terrorize and...
Pros: Funny, entertaining, quite hilarious Cons: none really, some people may not like the type of humor
Background Information
This movie was directed by Kelly Makin in 1999. It stars a wonderful cast ranging from James Cann as Mafioso Frank Vitale and Hugh Grant as the English auctioneer, Michael Felgate who is enamored with Frank's...
Pros: It's relatively short Cons: Disappointing performances
Pity the Godfather. Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola should be getting a royalty every month from all of those people making comedies about the mafia. MARRIED TO THE MOB may have been the first to score successfully with audiences, but now they seem...
Pros: Hugh Grant's charm is on full volume as he blunders his way through some funny bits Cons: The movie falls apart at the end; it's mean-spirited to certain groups of people
Someone in Central Casting must have thought it a pretty funny idea to thrust the stuttering, floppy-haired Hugh Grant into the Mafia underworld. It would be like prim-and-proper meets dese-and-dose. Call it "GoodChaps."
Pros: Watching Mr. Grant and Mr. Caan try to breathe some life into this corpse. The fact the movie was mercifully short. Cons: The guilty parties responsible should be made to pay their debt to society as cons.
As likeable a fellow as Hugh Grant is, he is hard pressed to stretch that appeal with the thin material he is given. The movie is made to showcase that lovable, stumbling, vulnerable character Mr. Grant invariably plays. Perhaps this reviewer has seen...
Pros: lots of laughs, keeps you guessing Cons: non
I rented this movie with some friends the other night and loved it. I already thought that this movie would be funny, but it was funnier than I thought it would be. The movie really keeps you going wondering what is going to happen next. First Mickey is...
I saw Mickey Blue Eyes at the theater with my husband. We were the only two in the theater, and he thought, "Good one Jen, this is going to stink." Well, I figured, James Caan and Hugh Grant, how bad could it be? They're great. I was...
The decades keep going by, but cinema continues to have a fascination with organized crime. The earliest mobster film I know of is "Little Caesar" from 1930, starring perhaps the greatest mobster actor of them all, Edward G. Robinson....
Pros: Simple plot; great acting Cons: foul language
Accustomed to trailers that marketers overpromise and under-deliver, I was not expecting much from this comedy. I am happy to report I can highly recommend this film, perfect for a Friday night "movie & Beer" night.
I have always been a Hugh Grant fan (amist all the scandals) and this movie proves it. What I mean is that without the British innocence (seems kind of inappropriate to describe him huh?) of Hugh Grant this movie would not have been able to keep my...
Pros: Clever at times Cons: Not worth a second viewing
Mickey Blue Eyes is candy for the brain -- pure and simple.
We were going to see it in the theater last year; but thanks to my husband's sudden kidney stone attack, we spent the evening (and half the following morning) in the emergency...
They call him Mickey Blue Eyes. Grant stars in this fish-out-of-water comedy about a dapper art auctioneer whose romance with a school teacher entangl...More at HotMovieSale.com
