Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community Jul 30, 2010
Pros: David Hyde Pierce, William Shatner, buddy comedy aspect
Cons: very heavy-handed, over-the-top live action segments, uneven tone
Summary: Over the past few decades, Bill Murray has played a lot of schlubby fellas, but never have I seen him less attractive than in Osmosis Jones, the 2001 Farrelly Brothers movie about the quest of a white blood cell and a cold pill to defeat the virus ... read more

Pros: Top-Notch animation, great idea
Cons: Gets slow at times as well as a little confusing
Summary: Osmosis Jones came out a while ago and received little attention/acclaim/box offic money. This is a realy shame since I hate it when animated flix that aren't targeted specifically at kids don't do well, which doesn't let other films like that get made. ... read more

Pros: Well-voiced, good animation, reasonably intelligent humor.
Cons: Occasionally resorts to 'gross-out' jokes
Summary: I didn't see this one in the theater. I hadn't heard great things about it. But Finally I gave in and rented it, and boy was I surprised. The casting for the animated characters was perfectly done. I had no problems picturing William Shatner as the ... read more

Pros: The animated sequences are spirited and delightfully inventive.
Cons: Aside from Bill Murray, the crass live-action sequences come up short.
Summary: You would think that, after the likes of Dumb & Dumber, There's Something About Mary and Me, Myself & Irene, the Farrelly brothers would have exhausted all creativity that can be found with bodily fluids. As Osmosis Jones gleefully points out, however, ... read more

Pros: The Animation
Cons: The "Real-life" part of the movie
Summary: The animation is great but I will admit that the "real-life" acting was lame. An example of bad acting is when "Frank" (Bill Murray) gets a cramp in his leg. He didn't really act like he was in pain. It would have been great if the actors and actresses ... read more

Pros: Great animation, fun movie, interesting story, original idea for a movie.
Cons: Bill Murray's sickest, grossest role ever. And I like Bill Murray!
Summary: It's quite an original idea... let's focus on one white blood cell and create a whole imaginative story about a viral infection. I wanted to see it when I saw the trailers for it because, even if it didn't capture the interest of many others, I saw the ... read more

Pros: good animation, interesting story and concept
Cons: father/daughter plot
Summary: Every once in a while a movie comes along that surprises you. Osmosis Jones did that for me. I wasn't expecting much and was pleasantly surprised.
The way the human body is changed into an animated world is a very interesting way to go for a ... read more

Pros: Great voice over artists
Cons: cliched...but then again, that's the fun part..
Summary: I rented this movie on DVD because it was a Farrelly Brothers movie. I am a big fan of all of their movies. I wasn't expecting anything outrageous but some mild entertainment. I watched this movie at least 4 times in the weekend I had it.

Pros: inventive visual world, animation, voice talent, screenplay
Cons: horrible live action sequences, Bill Murray
Summary: Osmosis Jones is classified as one of those rare animated films that gain little acceptance due to the fact that it’s not the candy coated general commercial material that Disney promotes with every animated feature they produce.Warner Bros ... read more

Pros: Colorful animation sequences and a clever script.
Cons: Graphic gross-out gags flop in the live-action arena.
Summary: While it's certainly not among the best movies of the year, Osmosis Jones is not a film that deserved to end up $60 million dollars in the hole. I suppose the end product proved to be a tough sell for Warner Brothers, but I suspect this one will ... read more

Pros: Full of gross, goofy humor, any little boy's dream movie!
Cons: A little icky for moms.
Summary: I took my son to this movie, he chose it and after 15 mins it was easy to see why. The gross body humor, the many interesting characters milling about, and even some explosions going on inside this poor guy's body made this exciting and funny at the same ... read more

Cons: Gross parents will not
Summary: Kids love gross movies. That much we all know, but this movie isn't gross enough to keep any child interested through the entire movie.

Pros: Cartoon voice casting, especially Fishburne
Cons: Live action segments purposfully too gross
Summary: I took my 9-year old son to this movie, expecting to be bored while he had a good time. I came to the theatre with a bad opinion to begin with. I left thoroughly entranced with most of the cartoon action and voicings and bugged with the obviously "out ... read more

Pros: It starts with an interesting premise
Cons: My title says it all
Summary: I guess that Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the makers of "Osmosis Jones," were trying to do some sort of homage to the educational films of the fifties, such as Frank Capra's "Our Mr. Sun," and combine them with the style that made their gross-out comedy, ... read more

Pros: the animation, soundtrack and script keep the show moving
Cons: take a look at review
Summary: Have you ever wondered what goes on in the back of your nose when you sneeze? The Farrelly Brothers have. And in their traditional gross-out fashion, they'd like to show you.
There you have Osmosis Jones, a combination of clunky live action ... read more

Pros: Funny, nice animation, David Hyde Pierce, Chris Rock
Cons: disgusting spots, bad live action areas, Bill Murray needs to shape up.

Cons: Live action scenes were boring. ah huh ah huh a huh!

Pros: The Monkey is too cute!
Cons: Expelling of body fluids
Summary: Usually I enjoy most of Bill Murray's films, but this one is an exception. My weak stomach can only take so many "gross-out" gags at one time. The premises of this movie was a great idea, but didn't play out as well as it could have.
