Wonderful

Rating: 9/10 (15 January 2005)

This is such a great feel good movie and although not a x-mas movie it just feels even better watching it at that time of year.
There are only one or two movies that I have seen in my life that I will score a 10 so to give this a 9 is high praise indeed.
After watching it the first time I would have scored it a 7 or 8, but this film more than any other I have ever watched stands up to repeat viewings. It is rare that I watch a movie more than once or twice but I have seen this four or five times and always enjoy it as much as the first time.
This I find amazing as the film itself shows the same day over and over, you would have maybe thought the opposite and that you would get bored second time around.
Maybe I find it so enjoyable because you put yourself in his shoes and wonder how you would deal with the situation, only to see the film cover every angle until finally the secret is found (though were never quite sure what it is other than 'be good') and the next day dawns Bill Murray is perfect for the role and I don't think it would have worked so well without him.
Scores a 9
