A broken record that fixes everything

Rating: 10/10 (19 March 2019)

Never would have guessed that a groundhog will cause such great memories and will become a cut reference, but Bill Murray has achieved the supreme, he has become a part of cinema history. Let me tell you why.
Playing a douche is hard and an actor should combine a visual and spiritual quality of a scumbag. Everybody loves Bill Murray, nevertheless he has managed to shake off the air of cuteness and suit up into a sarcastic egocentric jerk. Through a magical set of events we can follow the emotional rollercoaster that this celebrity in the emergency is experiencing. The pressure of unknown reasons and uncharted goals constantly reminds of itself causing unexpected reactions that are hilarious, adorable, heartbreaking, romantic and eye-opening. The number of situations and the versatility of the main character are so huge that they could have easily been split into several movies, but instead artfully crafted into fluent journey of self-discovery and self-rehabilitation.
Despite the long winter depicted here I felt cozy warmness all the way through the film and even after the end credits. Harold Ramis has created a masterpiece that will never be out of time and that deserves to be re-watched occasionally to understand a real value of life; and once again thanks to Bill Murray for giving his unforgettable touch to engrave the story in our memories.
