Another brilliant Coen Brothers' movie...too many hilarious scenes to count. The camera work was sensational as always, and Goodman and Cage are perfect for their roles. Fantastic movie
Nicolas Cage really impressed me in this film. I've heard about it before but never really felt a desire to check it out. I rented it out and really enjoyed the story. With a few elements which annoyed me (the devil biker) however a fun film to watch.
" I found myself driving past convenience stores... that weren't on the way home."
In this comedy, good hearted ex-con H.I. (Nicolas Cage) and emotionally unstable ex-cop Ed (Holly Hunter) are infertile, so when the "Arizona quints" are born to a local unpainted furniture magnate they decide the parents wouldn't miss just one baby. With its "Biker of the Apoca...( read more)
Quirky early Coen Bros. comedy with Nicolas Cage in his most "redneck" role. Classic.
One of Nicolas Cage's first films. Some fairly entertaining scenes. The Coen brothers came up with quite a funny concept, of a crook marrying the woman who kept on arresting him and then trying to steal a baby cose they can't have one of their own...
Easily one of the Coen Brothers' wildest comedies. Nicolas Cage is hilarious as a man who kidnaps a baby because he and his wife are unable to have children. Sounds like a pretty serious plot, but it's far from it. The style of this movie is certainly not for everyone, but it ...( read more)
Here is my introduction to the Coen Brothers moviemaking style, which took off in many other movies afterwards. I never paid any attention to Nick Cage until this movie. I thought at the time that he was a comedy actor, it wasn't until later movies that I learned that he had such...( read more)
Is there anything wrong with this movie? I mean, seriously! Nic Cage was perfectly cast as a loser con who just can't stop stealing, even after he steals a baby to be a family man. And John Goodman and Bill Forsythe are great as his ex-con buddies who find out about his baby-napp...( read more)
Funniest stuff Nick Cage has done. No argument. I dare you, DARE YOU not to laugh.
One of my fav Coen bros. The cast is so hilarious and there are some amazing camera perspectives.
This is a great film, great & craaaazy chases and camera angles.. it's no wonder this film is usually in the top 50 films of all time.
One of the Coen Brothers first films, a delightfully dark comedy that only their twisted genius minds could conceive.
ah, the Coen Bros....quite possibly one of the weirdest comedies I've ever seen. quirky, surreally hilarious slapstick. brilliant performance from Cage and Hunter--the perfect oddjob couple. excellent movie.
screwball by way of road runner cartoons, this is coens doing all out comedy, great comedic moments only coens could do, superb set pieces, and in nic cage a mad southern performance, hes great at that,
Holly Hunter is a scream in this...'you just go back in there and get me a baby!' I am sure this is what inspired 'Happy Texas' almost 20 years later. You have to love a love story of down home folk. Nicholas' gentle nature is so obliging and well intentioned. Wonderful subtle hu...( read more)
i really like this movie, another Coen brothers classic. really funny and Cage is great in it.
One of the best comedies of the 80s and all time! Nic Cage and Holly Hunter are superb in this! I laughed from beginning to end!
Funny film by the Coens. Great Huggies run scene and Cage is fantastic as Earl Hickey.
I very funny film. Coens doing what I love them doing. Somethimes that song was annoying though.
lol this movie was a riot i was laughing along the whole way. great Charechters and great story over all great movie and weird as shit!
Coen brother's second movie. I loved it! Nic Cage rocks (he shows he''s a good actor, despite the horrible movies he played in later) and the whole film is entertaining and so funny, although I still prefer the "darkest" side of the Coens.
