And the verdict is: JOE PESCI is HILARIOUS!
18 January 2001
Not many people remember this film. It was funny, laugh out loud funny. It won an Academy Award for christs sake! Surprised? Marisa Tomei took home best supporting actress for a comedy. And that doesn't happen often! Joe Pesci should have won something for his performance in this one, oh wait he did... Funniest Actor in a Motion Picture from the American Comedy Awards. Gotta love the internet movie database!

Its a change of pace for Joe Pesci after his roles in films such as Casino, JFK and Goodfellas.

I read in a review that for many years Fred Gwynne attempted to disassociate himself from his role as Herman Munster, with no success. His role as Judge Haller was his last film appearance and is absolute perfection.

This is a well written, flawless comedy! Probably one of the funniest films of the 1990's! If you want to laugh... SEE THIS MOVIE!

Judge Peter's Verdict: GUILTY of being absolutely hilarious! 8 (out of 10)
