Comedy

"A funny, sometimes insightful look at what life might be like when a hardened criminal is plunked down in middle-class suburbia. " | ||||
"Script and direction are both fairly slapdash, but the actors and the overall sweetness keep this chugging along on some level ." | ||||
"It's plus points are few and far between (...) but such rare glimpses merely underline the sheer sogginess of the rest of the movie." | ||||
"It is apparent that through most of 'My Blue Heaven', Steve Martin's talent is tossed away on this sketchy outline of a howlingly funny idea." | ||||
"It's a confused carnival of silly subplots and characters who never manage to form an ensemble." | ||||
"'My Blue Heaven' puts you in a stupor comparable to the one that comes on after Thanksgiving turkey. Written by Nora Ephron, it makes you long for the awful "Heartburn." |
