Analyze That poster & wallpaper

Anthony LaPaglia, Billy Crystal, Brian Rogalski

Mob boss Paul Vitti is nearing the end of his term in Sing Sing, and the FBI agents monitoring him are baffled. Day after day they watch as New York's most notorious gangland figure walks around his c...( read more  read more... )ell in a semi-catatonic stupor, occasionally breaking into songs from West Side Story. Is Vitti having a nervous breakdown because of recent threats on his life by a rival family, or is his odd behavior merely a foxy ploy to get him sprung from jail early? The FBI isn't sure, and neither is his former psychotherapist Ben Sobel, who gets called in to consult on the case. The last time Sobel treated Vitti, he tried to get to the source of his debilitating anxiety attacks, but barely scratched the surface. It will take time to examine the demons still lurking in Vitti's mind and help put him on the straight and narrow--time that Sobel doesn't want to give. The truth is, Sobel has problems of his own. His father has just died, plunging him into an identity crisis in both his personal and professional lives. Furthermore, he knows his wife Laura will be furious if he allows the unpredictable Vitti back into their lives. But when Vitti is granted a conditional release into Sobel's care and custody, becoming his patient again and--even worse--his houseguest, the reluctant psychiatrist finds that he has no choice. In order to get peace back in his life he must help the troubled gangster sort out his psyche, find gainful employment and go straight--which proves easier said than done.

    started off well, although not as good as it's predecessor analyze that still has some moments of good humour in it. unfortunately those moments fade out towards the end

Audiences who loved Analyze This may have to see the new movie to believe just how empty it is. What they'll find is a profound difference between This and That. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

What we get in Analyze That are several talented actors delivering their familiar screen personas in the service of an idiotic plot. full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Some of this might fly if there were a script, any script, but under the direction of Harold Ramis, the supporting cast mills about aimlessly while the two stars shoot potty-mouth improvisations at ea... full review

Patient suffers from serious delusions of humour and a desire to cash in on previously successful strategies. full review
