Product Description: Bill Murray does warmth in his most consistently effective post-Stripes comedy, a romantic fantasy about a wacky weatherman forced to relive one strange day over and over again, until he gets it right. Snowed in during a road-trip expedition to watch the famous groundhog encounter his shadow, Murray falls into a time warp that is never explained but pays off so richly that it doesn't need to be. The elaborate loop-the-loop plot structure cooked up by screenwriter Danny Rubin is crystal-clear every step of the way, but it's Murray's world-class reactive timing that makes the jokes explode, and we end up looking forward to each new variation. He squeezes all the available juice out of every scene. Without forcing the issue, he makes us understand why this fly-away personality responds so intensely to the radiant sanity of the TV producer played by Andie MacDowell. The blissfully clueless Chris Elliott (Cabin Boy) is Murray's nudnik cameraman. --David Chute

5 stars Worth the wait.

This movie starts out as any normal movie, but become quite monotonous throughout most of the movie, (which I'm sure was the director's intent) then has an awesome ending. "Well worth the wait" Be patient.


1 stars Still Sucking After All These Years
I first watched this movie as a kid, when I was home sick from school one day. I didn't like it then but since that time I've heard many people praise it, and figured maybe I didn't quite understand it back then.

Well apparently my pint-sized brain had some powers of discrimination even in those days. I just watched the movie again, and even though I realized it wasn't going to get good halfway through, I kept watching anyway, just to fully appreciate why I hate this film.

Firstly, every single character, aside from Murray's, is a two-dimensional moron whose sole purpose is to advance the increasingly rickety storyline. Even Murray's character at times seems as if he's being treated as a puppet by the writers, periodically engaging in some histrionics to add some 'entertainment' to this mind-numbing film.

Secondly, and probably more importantly as a comedy, the film is not funny.

My least relevant criticism, but one that probably elevates my contempt for this movie to another level, is the imbecility of the allegory. What is this film trying to say? Everyone is essentially good-natured and live every day to the fullest? Great. Not only is it poorly written and acted, the movie's cliched theme is saccharine to the point of being nauseating.

One star for taking a good concept and bludgeoning it into an airheaded piece of hollywood sludge.


5 stars "I've got you babe..."
Groundhog Day - 15th Anniversary Edition is the perfect film to watch when you are in a funk. Hopefullly this hit film will put a smile on your face afterwords, Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell are heavenly together. They have great chemistry and you believe their love/hate relationship. This is director's Harold Ramis second best film after National Lampoon's Vacation, I just love his movies. I highly recommend purchasing this classic, enjoy!


5 stars Was this written by Buddhists?
This unique comedy seems like it has to have been written by a bunch of Buddhists (a friend told me it was, it seems believable to me, but I haven't actually verified that). This movie may very well make you laugh and cry at the same time.

Bill Murray's character wakes up the day after Groundhog Day only to find that it is, once again, Groundhog Day, and everyone else is acting as if nothing is off.

You will be riveted by his plight as this cycle continues over and over
again, creating an emotional roller coaster that some would say is
indicative of the stages of ego release. This is a classic that will enlighten, entertain and provide endless enjoyment for the whole family.

What does it take for him to finally break the cycle of the day that never ends? Find out...

5 stars Very Funny
This movie is one of the funniest movies I ever seen. With my personality, You probably wouldn't expect me to like this movie(If you no me). This is a classic I would not mind watching over and over again. I just finish catching it on TV. It was in the middle of the movie, I was bummed! LOL
So I decided to come here and see if I could find it. While it was on my mind.

I'm a 32 year old woman with tons of hobbies and work in my life. When I want to watch a classic funny movie, this is the one to watch!!!
