Editorial Reviews

In this Frank Oz film, washed-up director Bobby Bowfinger finds his dream movie script, but not the financing that will make the movie happen. Desperate, Bowfinger stalks and films famous action star Kit Ramsey reacting to his own oddball group of actors, making Kit the movie's hero without his knowledge. Kit, already paranoid, starts to lose it as strangers approach him to discuss alien invasions. But one problem remains: The dramatic conclusion to the film can be filmed only with Kit's assistance--or by pushing him entirely over the edge.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smart and Funny, January 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Bowfinger [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I liked this movie. I thought is was definitely one of the funnier movies of 1999. Steve Martin as a con-man and Eddie Murphy as both Kit and Jiff made an excellent team. I really liked the bit when Jiff was crossing the freeway. Besides, I REALLY like looking at Heather Graham.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sure-Osar nominee, October 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Bowfinger [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie is one of my faves. I thought it would be bad when I went to the theater, but I was laughing so hard at the end. It is about Bobby Bowfinger, a struggling movie producer who thinks his big break is coming when he reads a script written by one of his friends called "Chubby Rain." He decides to film it. He makes all his friends the stars, and trys to get famous action star, Kit Ramsey, to star too. But when Kit turns him down, he decides to film the movie with him starring, but he won't tell him that he is in the movie. See it today!

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful satire, March 9, 2000
This review is from: Bowfinger [VHS] (VHS Tape)
There are some movies that are just pure fun. Bowfinger is one of them. Steve Martin plays a down-and-out movie producer. He decides to make a film without the star, Eddie Murphy, knowing about it. So he gets a film crew and follows Murphy around, placing him in situations and capturing it on film.

Murphy plays two roles, one of the film star and one of a rather dumb guy hired to play the film star's double. He is so good I thought it was two different actors. He has the ability to twist his face into outrageous expressions and get laughs from just a gesture.

The whole story is satire and done well. I found myself laughing throughout and, even though the film was predictable from start to finish, I wasn't bored for a moment.

It's a silly movie and that's what it's supposed to be.
