SunnyHello Nice effects though.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
BA_Harrison Put all thoughts of Sgt. Bilko and The Pink Panther out of your mind: let us remember Steve Martin when he was at the top of his game, an uproariously funny comic with his own special brand of zany physical humour. All Of Me, directed by Carl Reiner, sees Martin starring as Roger Cobb, a struggling lawyer who unwittingly becomes host to the spirit of recently deceased millionairess Edwina Cutwater (Lily Tomlin) after her plan to transmigrate her soul into the body of stableman's daughter Terry (Victoria Tennant) goes terribly wrong.With Edwina controlling one half of Roger's body, the silver haired comedian is given ample opportunity to showcase his wacky style of comedy and does so with gusto; the result is a memorable central performance from Martin in a consistently funny film that also sees co-star Tomlin on fine form as the lonely rich woman who, in death, learns to enjoy life and who finally makes a friend.Breezy direction from Reiner ensures a lively pace, the action accompanied by a suitably jazzy score, with comedy highlights including Roger visiting the men's room with a little help from Edwina (tap tap), a hilarious courtroom scene wherein Edwina takes control while Roger sleeps, and a wonderfully silly bedroom scene where Roger attempts to have sex with Terry while Edwina is taking a nap.
Rainey Dawn One of Steve Martin's and Lily Tomlin's best films ever!! It's quite a brilliant comedy - extremely funny.I really love this film. The comedy-fantasy aspect is the core of the film and Steve Martin's performance is outstanding! Imagine yourself trying to play Martin's role where half of you is man and the other half is a very feminine female ghost - that has got to be hard to do.The movie also has elements of romance and I am not a huge fan of romantic-comedies but this movie is an exception for me - I really love this film! This movie is well worth watching - if you like comedies then you may enjoy this film.9/10
Woodyanders The spirit of uptight dying rich spinster Edwina Cutwaters (superbly played by Lily Tomlin) gets accidentally transferred into the body of swinging bachelor lawyer Roger Cobb (Steve Martin in fine and inspired form). The two radically opposite personalities are forced to share the same body until they can get wacky swami Prahka Lasa (a delightfully kooky Richard Libertini) to put Edwina's soul into the body of shameless and conniving slut Terry Hoskins (a deliciously naughty portrayal by the lovely Victoria Tennant). Director Rob Reiner and screenwriter Phil Alden Robinson devise an ideal showcase for the major comic talents of both Martin and Tomlin: The original wild and crazy Steve performs plenty of frantic physical humor with amazing skill and agility while Tomlin brings a genuinely moving pathos to the initially unappealing character of the sad and repressed Edwina. Better still, there's a good deal of genuine heart and warmth amid all the zany slapstick, with the two main characters becoming more endearing and sympathetic as the story unfolds. Roger Cobb in particular is a likable eccentric who talks to his beloved dog and aspires to be a jazz musician. Martin and Tomlin do sterling work in the lead roles; they receive sound support from Tennant, Libertini, Jason Bernard as Roger's loyal, laid-back blind saxophone player pal Tyrone Wattell, Dana Elcar as amorous law firm head Burton Schuyler, Michael Ensign as prissy lawyer Mr. Mifflin, Madolyn Smith as Roger's fiery fiancé Peggy, Eric Christmas as Terry's cranky stableman dad Fred, and Selma Diamond as Roger's sunny secretary Margo. It's a real treat watching Martin and Tomlin bounce off each other; sidesplitting highlights include Roger getting Edwina to help him go to the bathroom (priceless line: "How dare you say penis to a dead person"), Edwina spoiling Roger's attempt at making love to Terry, and the wonderfully exuberant final scene. A total hoot.
Boba_Fett1138 Most of the time it's not OK to like a Steve Martin movie, except for one of his early movies, of which this is one of those. However this movie really isn't as good as funny as people making it sound it is.Basically, the movie was simply not funny enough. And it's not like my name is Grumpy. I chuckled only a couple of times but further more the movie only annoyed me with its stupid simple story and not really likable characters.Not really Steve Martin's fault though that this movie doesn't work out as funny. He is really great as a half-man-half-woman, when a deceased woman possesses the right side of his body. He plays it convincing and funny and it's a pretty amazing job, the more you start thinking about it.It also is not like I hated watching this movie, since it's basically a non-stop comedy that trows jokes at you, of which only a few are really effective.I sort of hate this comedies with simple, stupid stories with no effort put into it. Most plot-lines also really don't get wrapped up properly. It also disturbed me how totally non-likable the characters were. Basically each character in this movie is a *beep* or a *beep*. How are you seriously supposed to care about them or what will ever happen to them. Especially Edwina Cutwater is not a character to love and so is also really the Steve Martin character, who cheats on his girlfriend, even after telling her he wants to marry her he still runs off with another dame.Still worth watching on a rainy afternoon when you really have nothing else to do.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
