Hudson Hawk

Pros: Slapstick humour and extremely unique style
Cons: Misunderstood, not your standard movie, a little strange.

Usually, I don't add another review to an item that has already been thoroughly explained and evaluated. This time I feel some explanation is in order. Why is there such a radical disagreement on this film? Why are opinions so widely split. I think I...

Pros: no one actually reaches out of the screen and kills you during the movie.
Cons: Sandra Bernhardt. Cheesy script. Nonsensical places and events. Nothing funny.

Well, I don't know how highly recommended this review will be, because I'm not about to go into what this movie meant or how it portrayed its characters in this way or that way, and what affect that had on me, the viewer, or the director's vision as a...

Pros: Light hearted, Quite funny, Different and Enjoyable.
Cons: Was never going to sweep the oscars, but who cares?

Hudson Hawk would have to be one of the most critically lambasted movies of all time. Everyone you meet will nod knowingly at the terrible-ness of the film and agree that it deserved to be a huge flop.
The only problem is, that in my opinion the...

Pros: great B movie
Cons: Willis attempts to take his suped up Moonlighting "attitude" to the silver screen and fails

I'm sorry, but I had to respond to a recent review of Hudson Hawk that I recently saw... The review states (and I quote) "This movie proves what I've been saying all along: Bruce Willis is a great actor. This is one of the best roles that Willis...

Pros: witty, offbeat comedy, Bruce Willis
Cons: not for everybody

Hudson Hawk was a chance for Bruce Willis to flex his comedic acting muscles, and through the title character, he did a great job of this.

The plot is simple... Hawk, a catburglar who has been recently released from prison, plans to go...

Pros: Willis is brilliant, the script is great, situations are wonderful, and soundtrack is fabulous.
Cons: I loved it. Takes a minute to get used to the quirks, but then you fall in love with them.

This movie proves what I've been saying all along: Bruce Willis is a great actor. This is one of the best roles that Willis has ever been cast in, it gives him a chance to show his charm, his comedic style, and pure acting talent.

Backing up...

Pros: An action-packed comedic masterpiece
Cons: Poor marketing and bad reviews have made it an outcast

When people mention Hudson Hawk, they tend to lump it in with movies like Ishtar, Plan 9 From Outer Space, and Manos (The Hands of Fate). They say it's a terrible movie, which prevents a lot of people from ever taking the time to watch it. These people...

Pros: Funny!
Cons: Have to watch it more than once to get it all

This movie was a box office flop and got horrible reviews, but for some reason I disagree with all of them! I first saw this film when it came out on video tape. I had to watch it a few times to catch on to some of the quips, but it is a hilarious film....

Pros: Comedy and action, not to mention a funny Bruce Willis, turn this movie in one of Bruce Willis's best.
Cons: Plot is nothing more than a joke, not for totally unhumorous people.

This movie was originally made to be an action/adventure film. But it was primarily a slapstick comedy. There is also some pretty clever screenplay. Like the part where Richard E. Grant says we'll kill all your friends and family, we'll even kill...

Pros: Wouldn't seem as bad after a bottle of gin
Cons: One of the worst movies of all-time

I know I’m not the first person to say this, but I’ll say it anyway -- Hudson Hawk really, really sucks. You ever meet someone who’s totally convinced he’s funny and tells constant jokes, all of which are horrible? (Don’t say me...) That’s what Hudson...

Pros: A fun ride, great performances by a talented cast, great lines
Cons: not for hard core action fans, not for those who don't like Willis

After doing his time for a burglary charge – the Hudson Hawk (Bruce Willis) is released back into freedom. So why is his parole officer trying to convince him to do a job as he escorts the Hawk out of the prison? Eddie Hawkins “The Hudson ...

Pros: Sandra B., Danny and Bruce...make this fun
Cons: strong language at times, not one for the little tikes

From the very beginning this comic masterpiece, o.k. maybe not a masterpiece but entertaining in a "this stuff happens to me" sort of way. Attracts your attention with a brief history lesson involving Davinci's failed attempt at creating bronze...

Pros: Funny, action packed
Cons: sutle humour

When I first rented this movie - I didn't really know what to expect. me, like every other person in the known universe, had seen Die Hard. I was familiar with Bruce Willis as an action star. I was sceptic about the whole "laughter"...

Pros: Lots of laughs, great play on pop-culture, Bruce Willis.
Cons: Weird, but in a good way!

Bruce Willis singing show tunes boys and girls, need I say more? The movie is hilarious! The director has done a great job of purposely breaking many rules of movie making. Continuity being the most prominant. The way things seem to flow from one...

Pros: A thoroughly entertaining family movie
Cons: I cant understand why it wasnt more popular

Hudson Hawk was a film which, on release then sunk into obscurity, i often wonder why, Bruce Willis plays a perfect cat burgler and Danny Aiello is brilliant as his side kick not to mention such greats as Andie Macdowell, Richard E Grant and James...
