a great film

Rating: Null/10 (21 January 1999)

Phil, a sarcastic weatherman from Pittsburgh, goes every year to a little "hick town" where he covers the Groundhog Day festival. He hates it there, and can't wait to get out. But then he gets trapped in a time warp, and realizes that his problems just keep starting over and over again. I thought that this movie didn't look like it was gonna be all that great, maybe a few laughs, but not the best comedy ever.
I was wrong. This movie is funny, creative, heart-warming, clever, entertaining, funny, and um, really funny. Just when you think this movie is gonna "run out of tricks" it takes a new turn and ends up getting better and better. And then it makes you think. The only movie of this type that comes close to Groundhog day, in my most humble opinion, is As Good As it Gets. See Groundhog day. I did. over and over again. and it's still just as good as the first time I saw it.
