Review of The Hudsucker Proxy (1994) by Conner R — 11 Jun 2010
While I certainly believe it is one of the most idiotic movies ever made, it also happens to be extremely well done and hilarious. The jokes and gags are so overplayed that it becomes funny in another sort of way.
Likewise, the performances are so completely offbeat and downright crazy that it sort've becomes brilliant. Paul Newman was a great touch and for me was the best element in the entire movie. Now saying all that, I don't think I could see myself re-watching it all that much because it's a lot to swallow and manage a lot of the time.
It's sort of a blessing and a curse at the same time. However, this should be seen if nothing else for the great directing from Joel Coen.
