BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Benedito Dias Rodrigues I'm totally suspicious to write about Pryor & Wilder,l love their pictures,probably the best comic duo ever...black and white, con and nice guy,immoral and moralistic...they are quite opposite each other, but they complete themselves,although they weren't close friends in real life...Pryor is my favorite black actor for all times,he makes jokes about own skin... fantastic, priceless...sadly he is no longer among us after snort tons of cocaine...but Pryor is a definitive Hero to me!!!

oOoBarracuda After 3 successful collaborations together, Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor came together for the final time in Maurice Phillips's 1991 film Another You. The two definitely did not save the best for last in this story of mistaken identity. Maybe it was a case of wearing out a good thing, or poor directing, or something else entirely; whatever it was, Another You didn't work. After being in a mental hospital for 3 years, for his pathological lying, it is believed that George (Gene Wilder) is ready to be re- introduced to the world again. Eddie Dash (Richard Pryor) is a con- man trying to stay on the rehabilitated side of life when he is assigned to community service for the remainder of his probation. He is assigned to spend time with George, helping him find an apartment and aid him on his re-introduction to life outside of the mental hospital. On the way to the museum, George bumps into a man who mistakenly believes he is a millionaire to whom he owes a lot of money. George is wholeheartedly against going on with this lie as he is trying to rehabilitate himself from lying. Eddie, however, has no interest in becoming a better person and leaving the con game behind. Seeing this as a great opportunity for getting a lot of money, Eddie urges George to go along with the charade. George then meets the real Abe Fielding's wife and sees the beautiful mansion that he is supposed to live in. Going along with the charade proves difficult when it is revealed that the real Abe Fielding is missing and believed to be murdered. Everything about this film was disjointed. It's hard to believe, by watching this film alone, that there were 3 other film collaborations of the two principles. Another You is completely missable, likewise, miserable. A flat storyline that never fully develops or works enough to engage the audience, even my intense love of Gene Wilder's work wasn't enough to save this picture for me.

Paul Magne Haakonsen There was always a certain charm and dynamic energy to the teaming up between Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder, however "Another You" never really kicked into gear and went up to where their other movies together were. And it was a shame.Gene Wilder is the main focus here in this movie, and Richard Pryor seems a little bit put into the background, not really given a chance to put in his full repertoire.The story told in "Another You" is about Eddie Dash (played by Richard Pryor) who is a con artist who ends up having to do community work and look after George (played by Gene Wilder) as he is released from the asylum. George is a pathological liar and is really good at it, and the confusion becomes even bigger when people treat him as Abe Fielding, a rich entrepreneur and business man.For a Pryor / Wilder movie, then the comedy is fairly weak and seems much more toned down compared to their other movies. As such, then "Another You" isn't really as enjoyable as their other collaborated movies.There is a good ensemble of actors and actresses starring in "Another You", I will say that much. And people did good jobs with their given roles."Another You" is a part of the Pryor / Wilder legacy, yes, but individually, then this is the weakest of their collaborated movies. But still, it is entertaining enough for a single watching.

jrs-8 "Another You" is a jaw droppingly awful "comedy" that represents a low for Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. There is not one single laugh in this movie. Pryor's health problems are more than apparent and there is a scene between Wilder and future Oscar winner Mercedes Rhuel that involves yodeling that is so embarrassing it has to be seen to be believed.Once upon a time the comedy team of Wilder/Pryor gave us good laughs in "Silver Streak" and "Stir Crazy" and even in "See No Evil Hear No Evil" which looks like a classic compared to this atrocity.
