See it..again and again

Rating: Null/10 (16 September 2000)

I think this is definitely a film which grows on you. Murray plays the same character he always plays, the frustrated and sarcastic cynic who comes to realize that life does have a meaning after all. He comes to love the town he hates, and the people in it. Especially of note are the scenes with the bum, which is really where his 'redemption' begins. Murray plays off the other cast members very well, with most of them there as straight men (& women) to his situation. But what really sells me is the continuity; The same people are in EXACTLY the same places at EXACTLY the same times, every time. Of course, his relationship with McDowell is great as well. Well worth watching twice.
