5.0 out of 5 stars Pay no attention to Amazon's own review of this film., March 27, 2004
By 
caroline (Duesseldorf, Germany) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Coupe De Ville [VHS] (VHS Tape)
First of all, how do you confuse Alan Arkin with Joseph Bologna? Embarrassing. I worked with the director of this movie, Mike Binder, back in his stand-up comedy days at the Comedy Store and I can fairly state that this film is simply a beautiful work; a combination of hilarity and wonderfulness. Anyone who loved Mike's stand-up routines, will go on to love his smart-as-a-whip screenplay and story in "Coupe Deville", and the twists and turns will not only crack you up, but will tug at the heart strings as well. The actors are all so brilliant especially ALAN ARKIN and Daniel Stern. Definitely get this movie!. You'll have a very moving and exhilirating experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coupe De Ville Why No DVD??, February 13, 2006
This review is from: Coupe De Ville [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I love this movie. We've watched it a zillion times in the past 15 years. It has a fabulous cast. Patrick Dempsey is adorable as the juvenile delinquent brother. Daniel Stern delivers a stereo-typical control freak older brother. Alan Arkin is dry and witty. The writers were incredible. It has wonderful humour, touches your heart and a nerve if you have a brother. My VHS is worn out. I need a new copy, but it appears it is not yet available on DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars An overlooked gem, December 6, 2003
By 
V. Martell (Oakdale, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Coupe De Ville [VHS] (VHS Tape)
As others have said, ignore the Editorial Review. ... The father is brilliantly played by Alan Arkin--one of his best performances this side of Glengarry Glen Ross. As one reviewer said, if the Editorial Reviewer lists Joseph Bologna as the father, you have to wonder if he even watched. Is Coupe De Ville formulaic? Yes. But who cares. Not everything has to be high art. It's an enjoyable, funny, warm-hearted look at the complicated relationship between 3 brothers. Of course one is strict, the other is a romantic and the youngest is a spoiled brat. But who cares?? The fun is watching the three of them interact, deal with their anger and resentment towards each other, as well as their devotion and willingness to forgive and forget. I just wish this was out on DVD. Another 80's gem, To Live and Die in LA was just released on DVD, so I guess there's hope yet. By the way, this movie was written by Mike Binder, who was in the short-lived HBO series, The Mind of the Married Man. Check out another great movie he wrote, "Crossing the Bridge." Unlike this, it's already out on DVD. Great job Mike on both movies!
