5.0 out of 5 stars Three of Bill Murray's Best November 27, 2009

This set includes three of Bill Murray's best movies:

Stripes, a military film from 1981 with Harold Ramis and John Candy, was directed by Ivan Reitman and has a 6.8 rating from IMDb.

Ghost Busters from 1984 was also directed by Ivan Reitman and features Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, who jointly wrote the imaginative script, and Sigourney Weaver. Ghost Busters currently carries a 7.8 rating from IMDb.

Groundhog Day, the best of the three, was released in 1993 and carries an 8.1 rating from IMDb, which also rates it as #160 on its list of the 250 best movies. Groundhog Day was directed by Harold Ramis, who also co-wrote the outstanding screenplay with Danny Rubin. Andie MacDowell is excellent as the foil for Murray in this film in which Murray plays a self-absorbed TV weatherman who seems to take forever to learn life's lessons after failing miserably, but in the end learning that the Earth does not revolve around him and that showing kindness to strangers is a winning strategy in the end. This is a film that I never tire of watching.

5.0 out of 5 stars The original time-warp comedy January 15, 2010

By Enjolras TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

You've gotta love a movie that features Bill Murray, a groundhog, and time travel. The concept behind this movie has since become famous and widespread. This is still the best. Groundhog Day essentially teaches Murray's character a lesson in how to care about other people. However, before he learns it, he goes through several hilarious phases. At one point, he gets so sick of repeating Groundhog Day over and over that he tries increasingly creative ways to kill himself. He then tries to use the information he gets from repeating his days to help people out. All the while, Murray's sardonic humor carries the movie and makes it into a classic. Even if you've seen the copy cats, [ASIN:B001KEHAI0 Groundhog Day]] is still worth watching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bill Murray Collection March 4, 2013

Bill Murray has had a great career. Recently he has been taking more serious parts. This is a great set with that said. Three of Bill Murray's best. Stripes is a classic and so funny. From the start of the movie you will be laughing hard. In that opening scene Bill Murray is a cab driver who gets this rich rude obnoxious customer who insults him throughout the ride. Bill Murray stops the car and stands up for himself in hilarious fashion throwing the car keys over the bridge. His plans now are to give the army a shot.
Ghostbusters is one of his most famous roles and he does a great job here. GroundHog Day is one of his best movies ever. Stripes is the perfect movie to pop in after a stressful day at work to laugh. I strongly recommend this set. Cheers.
