DescriptionBill Murray is at his ironic, wisecracking best in this romantic comedy of a tumultuous time meteorologist caught a personal channel on the worst day of his life. Teamed with a producer hard gay (Andie MacDowell) and a smart-aleck cameraman (Chris Elliott), TV Weatherman Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is sent to Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, to cover the annual Groundhog Day festivities. But on his way out of town, Phil is caught in a giant blizzard, which he failed to predict, and finds himself stuck in small town hell. Just when things could not get any worse, they do. Phil wakes the next morning to find it’s Groundhog Day again. . . and again. . . and again. Amazon. comBill Murray does warmth in his most consistently effective post-Stripes comedy, a romantic fantasy about a Wacky weatherman forced to relive a strange day over and over again until it finds the right one. Snowed in en route to an expedition to travel to watch the famous groundhog encounter his shadow, Murray falls into a different era that is never explained but pays off so rich that he has need not be. The elaborate loop-the-loop plot structure cooked up by screenwriter Danny Rubin is very clear on every step of the way, but Murray’s world-class reactive timing that makes the jokes explode, and we find eagerly each new variation. He squeezes all the juice available for each scene. Without forcing the issue, he makes us understand why this fly-away personality responds so intensely to the radiant of mental health television producer played by Andie MacDowell. The blissfully clueless Chris Elliott (Cabin Boy) is Murray Nudnik cameraman. – David Chute

I hate this movie with a passion. The film is a repeat darn total and is quite boring and unnecessary, I am still angry against myself for watching this piece of trash. Rating: 1 / 5
It occurs to you that this film is pretty ugly? It is. It’s tedious and boring and overall, rather muets.Pitié.Rating: 1 / 5
Although I confess I have not seen this movie since its release in theaters, it certainly ranks near the top of the list in one of the worst films ever made. This is probably why I have not seen him since. I love Bill Murray and think it is a great comic actor. I really liked the movie until it goes back to when he first wakes up in the morning. I do not tolerate that once but when he repeated that the film went from a possible 5 all the way to 0. I rate it a 1 here because there is no number less than choose. If you have never seen the movie, do not waste your time and money. If you have seen and like her, please tell me why. You will not change my mind, but perhaps I can understand why some how you like it. Rating: 1 / 5
The only thing I have to say about this movie when I saw it was time the first single is as follows. . . It was funny, and it was good, all the way until one February 2 for the third time. I was February 2 to approximately 30 days or more. It got old after a while. When I saw in the theater, I actually got up and left the film because I was tired of waiting to see the end. I never knew, and I never will. The film seemed he was six hours long just because of repetition. Please do not rent if you get bored quickly. ~ Natalie Kilpatrick Rating: 1 / 5
Let me start by saying I am a fan Bill Murray. I have been watching since the heyday of Saturday Night Live. That said, this movie must be the worst that I saw during my stay on this planet! They took a good plot and slaughtered her. If the rating system has allowed zero stars I’ve worked here. My wife and I watched this dilly of matte film together and could hardly keep my eyes open. This was not due to fatigue, but rather dull, monotonous, so indigestible dragged again and again. As other critics have seen this film several times. . . I say, there is loss of time you can never recover. Get a life! Rating: 1 / 5
