Average J @AlanT Dec 10 One of the funniest and most creative movies I've ever seen. Unpredictable story. Funny special effects and camera angles. Really good acting from a small cast. See more Linda L. @Lindy71 Dec 10 Sooo well made!! I loved it!! Nathan Lane is one talented man !!! See more thiago s @Thiagostone Nov 22 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Sweet W Nov 11 I recently rediscovered this movie after seeing it in the theater years ago. It is wall to wall slap stick humor and most of it really works. the problem is, it's tough to watch a movie where the protagonists seemingly never get a break, even when success is right within their grasp. It is a movie that is truly fun for the entire family.

Well, all I gotta say is that, I enjoyed it. Yeah, I said it, I enjoyed watching MouseHunt. With the stars of Nathan Lane and British comedian, Lee Evans, they really have chemistry as the slapstick comedy really stands out. This is kind of like the Italian Laurel and Hardy slapstick comedy shtick. String magnate Rudolph Smuntz played by William Hickey, passes away bequeathing his financially cash-strapped factory and a dilapidated Victorian mansion to his sons Ernie and Lars played by Nathan Lane and Lee Evans. Following the will reading, both brothers suffer setbacks in their lives, Ernie, who shunned the family business to become a chef, accidentally loses his restaurant when a cockroach hidden in a box of cigars, causing the mayor to suffer a heart attack. Lars is kicked out of his house by his wife after he honored a promise to his late father to refuse to let a rival company, Zeppco International, buyout Smuntz String. They reunite in a diner and learn of the other's misfortune, leading them to spend the night in the mansion they inherited. They couldn't sleep 'cause of the noise something is making which turned out to be a mouse. So now it's up to them to kill it while other problems have been caused mainly by the mouse. With that I heard that it's directed by a newcomer at that time, Gore Verbinski. And the film also has some of the supporting cameo's like Christopher Walken and Ernie Sabella. Oh yes, if you think of Nathan Lane and Ernie Sabella appearing in a movie together, you better think of Timon and Pumbaa from The Lion King. In fact, Nathan Lane actually says one line in the movie which got me laughing while gobsmacked when he actually says "Ah, Hakuna Matata." (Laughing) I'm not kidding with what I'm actually seeing. It's just that one mind-blowing moment that really got me. With what I looked in the trivia, Ernie Smuntz bows to a sheik who is seeking to bid for his home. In doing so, he greets him with "Hakuna Matata," which is the song he sings in The Lion King. So with Ernie Sabella appearing in one scene, we have Lee Evans like, "When he was a young warthog." "When I was a young warthog." "Very nice." "Thanks." Yeah, with those moments in time, everything's gas. And I'm glad I actually saw it. Noted that it's not nearly as forgotten like it had a memorable title, Mouse Hunt, as it is a kids film with a dark scenes and a few crude moments too, I can say that this is worth recommending if they haven't seen it, I sure as hell I have been recommended as it was trying too hard to be dark but not gritty and not gory. I think that joke's been underused by the time I'm doing this review. As it is, It's definitely worth recommending to the people if they wanted to have a good time for the Laurel and Hardy, Hakuna Matata, slapstick comedy kids flick. Truth be told that I'm not the only one who thinks of this, but doesn't Nathan Lane sounded almost exactly like YouTuber, JonTron? See more Frank B Oct 12 Doing drama is easy. Drama comes easily. But comedy is hard especially good comedy. Some movies call themselves a comedy but don't come close. This is above average comedy well acted. The mouse is a standout. The actors do comedy with a straight face & it is funny. Very funny. A must watch. Enjoy. See more Read all reviews
