| Mickey Blue Eyes is a very funny movie, and what makes it so funny is
that very few of the laugh lines have been shown in the previews and
promotional clips. That’s especially amazing because Hugh Grant has been
seen “everywhere” extolling the virtues...more |

| It seems the mafia movie has become a genre unto itself, whether it's a
heavy crime drama or a spoof. Certainly, politically incorrect jokes are
not dead at the turn of the century, as we see in Kelly Makin's "Mickey Blue

American one will have trouble getting roles that don't involve playing
an Englishman in America. This has led to the constant typecasting of

| There are good mob dramas and bad mob dramas, just as there are good mob
comedies and bad mob comedies. ANALYZE THIS (8/10) with DeNiro and Crystal
sure proved to be a great mob comedy earlier this year, so could Caan and
Grant strike gold for the second...more |

| When it comes to comedy, timing is essential. And for "Mickey
Blue Eyes," the timing could hardly be worse. Although it's a generally
agreeable farce, much of its material was already covered six months ago
in the snappier "Analyze This," making...more |

| Solidifying 1999 as the Year of the Mob Comedy, Mickey Blue Eyes is not
quite as well-structured as this spring’s Analyze This, or as

| Let's face it. Kelly Makin's MICKEY BLUE EYES is ANALYZE THIS-lite, but
