Groundhog Day

Approximately 3650 reasons (based on the director's info that it's about ten years of Groundhog Day) to hate the song “I Got You Babe”, but at the same time the same 3650 reasons to love this movie. And to watch it again, and again, and again. And then once again. And then again, and again... (16/10/2009)

A very good romantic comedy, one of the best from the 1990s, boasting an excellent screenplay full of wit, originality, and absurdity. Director Harold Ramis also cast the perfect duo in the lead roles - the leading character actor and comedian Bill Murray, and the charming and likable Andie MacDowell, for whom the film was likely the pinnacle of her career. Murray's role was understandably more demanding, and he tackled it with honor thanks to his years of experience. His character, Phil, is cynical, self-centered, bored, and weary of life, convinced that nothing can surprise him anymore... His character then undergoes development, becoming someone else by the end. Thanks to the storyline built on working with a time paradox, the film can also be considered a comedic sci-fi. Overall impression: 80%. (30/12/2007)

When the movie started, I said to myself, what can be so great about it that it is generally so well-rated. When the movie ended, I said to myself, now I understand. This is simply an overall amazingly directed comedy that has no equal today and there are few similar films being made. Bill Murray is a brilliant actor! (03/03/2016)

A classic in the romantic comedy genre that I have seen many times and I don't think I will ever get tired of it. The traditionally great Bill Murray is unbeatable in his role, and Andie MacDowell is wonderfully charming and there is an incredible spark between the two of them. The ending was simply great.

Do you have déjà vu?, "I'll check the kitchen." A thoroughly enjoyable film starring the absolutely wonderful Bill Murray. His reporter, Phil, may be one big walking pile of sarcasm, but he's a likable and, fortunately for him and the audience, quite intelligent man who understands very well the benefits of all the thunderous time loops he’s caught in, and immediately begins to discover and exploit them. And it's a joy to watch. It's slightly less of a pleasure to watch Phil thenuncover the downsides of this endless loop and how his initial cynical wonder and almost boyish rampage is slowly replaced by depression and resignation – but be warned, even that's still funny! So there's nothing to do but cross your fingers, cross your fingers, and cross your fingers, and although moralizing is probably the last thing this comedy is about, you can still take something useful away from it in the end. You just have to want it. (30/07/2019)
