Ned Ryerson!

Rating: 8/10 (8 January 2007)

Until, well, today, Groundhog Day was one of those films that I knew I should have seen because everyone told me it was great but had never gotten around to. Well, now I have and I am glad that I did! Bill Murray's performance is as excellent as you would expect  wry, cynical, charming and, obviously, funny. Andie Macdowell is not horribly annoying in a break from the norm and the concept is attractive and well delivered. My only gripe is that Ned Ryerson needs his own film! What a genius character! I was praying for Murray to knock him out from the first moment he spoke. He's a spectacular comedic creation and really needs his own film, or maybe a spin-off TV show Anyway, good film, go buy.
