4.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest movies I've ever watched 15 times!, August 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Wrong [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this movie because I'm collecting everything Bill Pullman has done, and I will continue to get anything he does in the future. After purchasing it, I watched it, of course, and I admit that I didn't like it. I felt, in fact, very indignant that Mr. Pullman would do something like this. Then I read a transcript of an AOL Chat he did in which he said that he had a blast doing the movie. I decided to give it one more try and watched it again, this time trying to see it as Bill Pullman having fun with a role and as the comedy it was intended to be. I laughed so hard I almost rolled off the couch! Although Ellen DeGeneres is not as funny in this movie as I know she can be, Bill Pullman is hysterically funny. Watch his face and actions during the charades at his "mother's" house. Watch him in the background (the driver's seat of the RV) while Martha is trying to talk the kids out of the RV. The comedically (is that a proper word?) serious western hero saving his girl and the imitation of a Frankenstein monster lurching toward his bride are things that make this movie very funny. If you want to laugh, watch this movie from the perspective that the actors had a good time doing it. You'll love it! You'll watch it again and again.

Sing and Be Happy (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mr. Wrong (DVD)

Great casting, well paced script, funny funny funny. A little wacky at times, but each actor commits to every line.
My favorite scenes:
-Ellen/Martha's reaction to Pullman/Whitman's poetry
-Pullman character's "reveal"
-Charades with Ellen, Plowright and Pullman
-Ellen sharing her good news with sister Hope Davis
-Pullman's big butt
One of my all time favorite movies, I've seen it several times and always enjoy it.

This review is from: Mr. Wrong (DVD)

If you are a female, feel frustrated about not meeting a nice guy and can't figure out "why me" - you have to see this one. I absolutely adore this movie. I am a product of the late 70's/early 80's and so many references in this movie were spot on. I think that this is absolutely the best movie that Joan Cussak has done and Bill Pullman really shows his comic acting ability. I was lucky enough to meet Bill Pullman personally, while working for a leading airlines, and he was a delight. He indicated that this was one of his favorite projects. Ellen is at a comic best, although knowing she does not date men, I had to try and put this out of my mind. I have seen it maybe 100 times and never tire of it. The soundtrack is fantastic to the movie. It really is genius. I know it is silly - and some of it is a far stretch... However, there is so many truths. Flo (Polly ?) from the sitcom Alice plays her mother, and the actress who plays Bill Pullmans Mom is fantastic. It is really a great feel good movie, and just when you think that a guy is all together (wealthy and handsome) you realize it isn't always how it seems... Do yourself a favor and enjoy this one. It is great!
