Great actors, some funny lines, but too sophisticated plot

Rating: 7/10 (4 July 2012)

I had seen this movie when it came out in the beginning of 1990ies, but I did not remember much of it. Only the fact that Murray and MacDowell are great actors. I am still of the opinion, although Murray's role in this movie is more significant - more than in his other movie where he stars excellently - "Lost in Translation". However, at times, windings of the plot are difficult to monitor and there are not too many scenes you can really laugh - and they are all related to Murray's lines. The best scene is where Murray is driving mad the car with two local rednecks and gives his views on life and future. The romantic angle with MacDowell is similar to most of movies with Meg Ryan. In short, recommendable within an intelligent community, not to be watched as a comedy in a loud and drinking group :)
