Summary: Brilliant comedy!
Comment: One of my favourite films. This has incredible one liners, great slapstick, Bill Murray at his best and a really strange but completely great premise behind the whole thing.

Superb.

Summary: "Do You Ever Have Deja Vu?" "Did You Just Ask Me That?"
Comment: Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is a self-absorbed weatherman in Pittsburg who is obsessed with moving to a larger market. As part of his job, he goes every year to Pitsatony to cover the groundhog festivities on February 2nd. This year, he is going with his producer Rita (Andie MacDowell) and camera guy Larry (Chris Elliot). He can't wait to get home, but a blinding snowstorm makes it impossible for them to leave.

The next morning, Phil wakes up to discover that it isn't the next morning. And no matter what he does, every morning he wakes up to find it is February 2nd. Slowly, he begins to learn from his mistakes and do thing differently. But will he ever get out of this repetitive repetition?

After hearing this movie praised for years, I finally got a chance to see it. And I enjoyed it. There are lots of very funny moments as Phil deals with his predicament. His reactions near the beginning are priceless. And there is a very heartwarming message underneath it all.

However, I did find it got old before the movie was over. And there are some very dark scenes that felt out of place for the comedy it was supposed to be.

Those are minor issues, however. So if you've missed this movie, get it today and enjoy it over and over and over and over again.

Summary: Damon Medic's review of "Groundhog Day"
Comment: "Groundhog Day" is one of Bill Murray's best efforts. To think that a movie could repeat the same day over and over and over again and still be interesting is amazing and a credit to Murray's ability to draw viewers in. It turns out to be a sweet film of romance and I highly recommend it!

Summary: Worth the wait.
Comment:
This movie starts out as any normal movie, but become quite monotonous throughout most of the movie, (which I'm sure was the director's intent) then has an awesome ending. "Well worth the wait" Be patient.




Editorial Reviews:

Bill Murray is at his wry, wisecracking best in this riotous romantic comedy about a weatherman caught in a personal time warp on the worst day of his life. Teamed with a relentlessly cheerful producer (Andie MacDowell) and a smart-aleck cameraman (Chris Elliott), TV weatherman Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is sent to Punxsutawney , Pennsylvania, to cover the annual Groundhog Day festivities. But on his way out of town, Phil is caught in a giant blizzard, which he failed to predict, and finds himself stuck in small-town hell. Just when things couldn't get worse, they get worse; Phil wakes the next morning to find it's Groundhog Day all over again... and again... and again. Groundhog Day was cheered by critics as Bill Murray's best movie ever.
