The Man Who Knew Too Little (Widescreen/Full Screen)
»rank: 8143
Chroniques et points de vue:From :0nly die-hard Bill Murray fans will likely consider this movie for their home-video library, but it's not without its rewards. You can see why someone as comically astute as Murray would agree to play a dimwitted American who can't tell the difference between improvised theater and a real-life espionage plot. There's certainly plenty of potential for belly laughs, and Murray milks the opportunities like the old pro that he is. Here he plays an American tourist in London who thinks he's been recruited into a street-theater act called 'Theater ...

Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Taking its lead from Jonathan Demme's 0scar-winning pulse-raiser The Silence 0f the Lambs, Copycat strives for intelligence over gristle and carnage. lt's a terse, involving thriller that swings away from the usual cinematic notion of violence as a means to an end by forgoing brawn for brains.

»rank: 1901
