Product Description

In this wild, romantic comedy with a decidedly offbeat sense of humor, Jack Nicholson stars as Harry, a wisecracking con-man who owns a guard dog agency. When a singer (Ellen Barkin) seeks his aid after her house is burglarized, Harry inadvertently makes them the target of hit men, an underworld mob boss (Harry Dean Stanton) and Joan's eccentric sister (Beverly D'Angelo) and puts them at the mercy of Harry's out-of-control canines.

3.0 out of 5 stars Amusing well done little movie. Nicholson's always a joy., February 9, 2001

By	inframan (the lower depths) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Man Trouble [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I don't know why so many people slammed this movie. It's not Bringing Up Baby but it's a million times better than the moronic Something About Mary. Jack Nicholson has always been a very fine comic actor. I love The Fortune which was also written by Carol Eastman (as was 5 Easy Pieces) and was likewise trashed unjustly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Take your choice: Romance or Comedy, April 20, 2001

By	John R. Bridell (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Man Trouble [VHS] (VHS Tape)

MAN TROUBLE gets 4 **** from me because the dogs didn't upstage the actors. I've never cared for romantic comedies which make you decide to choose between romance or comedy. That was the problem with this movie. I chose comedy and got lot of enjoyment from the 100 minutes watching Nicholson, the conster, spar his wits with Barkin, with his Asian wife, with . . . well, with the rest of the cast. I'll be watching this movie from time to time as there are many memorable scenes such as Barkin trying to give the "guard dog" commands in German. Bev D'Angelo, fruitcake mobster ex-wife,furnishes some wacko dialogue and comedy scenes.
