Review of Analyze This (1999) by Phoenix F — 14 May 2012

There's not much to tell about Analyze this The idea is simple but original: an important mafia boss gets stressed, and needs a psychiatrist. Robert DeNiro is the godfather, Billy Crystal plays the psychiatrist. Next to these two we see Lisa Kudrow (the weird one from Friends) and Chaz Palminteri as the opposing mafia boss; very predictable casting. These actors could have played these parts in their sleep. DeNiro especially steals the show, Crystal seems a bit meak this time.

Apart from being predictable, the film moves along at a nice pace, there are some really good jokes, and it's all more than enough to keep you entertained. Solid comedy.
