Review of Groundhog Day (1993) by Adrian B — 15 Jan 2012
Refreshing comedy (considering the drek previously viewed by me) about a cranky weatherman (Bill Murray), who despises an upcoming event surrounding the February holiday which predicts whether it will be a longer or shorter winter.
This involves travelling to a small town and his attitude towards everyone there really does drag down the crowd. After doing his stint, he falls into a bizarre cycle for which he cannot escape that day.
Ways that he tries to escape: staying awake through the morning; breaking his alarm clock; trying to be nice for once; and killing himself. Amusing, entertaining film has pretty likable characters and good performance by Murray.
Some of the gags are quite funny and surprisingly effective.
