Supelice Dreadfully Boring

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Jackson Booth-Millard The first gangster comedy film was a surprising success, and they tried to create the same thing again with this sequel, from director Harold Ramis (Groundhog Day, Analyze This, Bedazzled). Basically Paul Vitti (Robert De Niro) is in prison following the events of the last film, and he seems do be cracking under the pressure, and he is fearing death. So naturally the one to called in to help him out is the psychiatrist and analyst he last saw, Dr. Ben Sobel (Billy Crystal) who has just lost his father. Paul appears to be catatonic when Ben visits him, but once they are are out of prison and the former gangster is Ben's responsibility, he shows he was faking. Paul is eager to both open up about his feelings once again, and try to find something to do to open up, make something of himself and feel good. He may in fact though be planning some big scheme, even when he finds a good job assisting the scriptwriter of a successful gangster drama show. Ben's wife Laura (Lisa Kudrow) is obviously not happy about the former gangster being Ben's responsibility, she would be even more unhappy if she knew their son Michael (Kyle Sabihy) was his driver. Of course it comes to the time when there is a big job, Paul has planned a robbery of a truck filled with gold bullion, and it seems to go reasonably well, up to the point when the police show up, and it is all part of the gangster show! In the end, the big crime family that the police wanted get caught, and Ben and Paul part ways as friends and singing a show tune from West Side Story. Also starring Joe Viterelli as Jelly, Reg Rogers as Raoul Berman, Cathy Moriarty as Patti LoPresti, John Finn as Richard Chapin and Callie Thorne as Agent Cerrone. Crystal is still great as the pressured, humiliated and embarrassed doctor, and De Niro is still good as the fast talking, rude and emotionally damaged crime lord. The film has its great comedic moments, but that is all it has, moments, it does not have the same dynamic the original had, but it is an alright crime comedy sequel. Okay!

Sirus_the_Virus I was a big fan of Analyze this. That is why I was really disappointed with Analyze that, a film that could've been a lot better. Trust me, it's not as bad as Be Coll or anything. I was a big fan of Get shorty and I was disappointed with that movie's sequel also. Trust me, this ain't Be cool though. Years after he was put away, Paul Vitti comes out of Sing Sing prison, where he sang sang. He comes back to his therapist Ben Sobel(played by the great Billy Crystal), where he causes even more chaos than before. I loved the original film, but this film has a Whole ten yards thing going with it where it's just a little silly. I give both films(Analyze that and The Whole ten yards) the same rating though. Does this film come close to being as good as the original? No. But the film still works in some sort of way. I'll agree that it was a disappointment, but I still liked it.Analyze that:***/****

Elswet This time around, everything is different. Paul's coming from somewhere he's never been, going into a new life, and in new directions, and dragging the f'ing Doctor along with him.The same dynamic from "Analyze This" is in play, but it is applied differently, with more skill. This chapter feels like it tries to be more serious, and loses some of the charm of the first installment, but it manages a certain gritty edge missing from that first movie.This is still a witty movie, don't get me wrong. But it gives the viewers more of the business end of Paul Vitti and family. The laughs are less the belly kind and more the thinker's tickle kind until about half way through it, and then it changes gears and the belly laughs start coming again.I really enjoy this movie, and watch it often.It rates an 8.4/10 from...the Fiend :.

jeethjohnp I just don't know why this film has got such a low rating. It was fun. It was not as good as the first one but they made a pretty decent second outing. Psychologically speaking, the first one had a lot to say. This one primarily concentrates on the situations and pairing up of the old team. so, story wise this is a weaker one but why the hell would I care as far as it tickles my funny bones :). Robert De Niro was a liiiitlllle bit on a low profile in this. So were Lisa Kudrow and Billy's kid. Other than that this movie is a cool cat. Just don't give a damn about all the negative reviews and watch, relax and enjoy. Rock on! ****
