GOOD MOVIE

THIS HAS BEEN MY ALL TIME FAVORITE MOVIE IN THE WORLD. AND COULDN'T FIND IT NO WHERE!! TILL I LOOKED ON AMAZON AND TADA! THERE IT WAS AND I HAD TO BUY IT.. IT CAME UNDAMAGED..


When Neighborhoods Fight Back

This is a superbly farcical dark comedy. There are, surprisingly, many layers of subtle humor in this otherwise madcap comedy. It may take a number of times watching this movie before you begin to see some of the more subtle jokes that often happen in the background.

As always, Tom Hanks is great, but the supporting cast does an equally superb job in their respective roles: the former soldier across the street; the childish, simplistic neighbor who drags the world down to his level; the longsuffering wife; the stoner teen. They just culminate in a cast that makes this movie eminently watchable.

This one is a great movie for a Friday the 13th party if you want a semi-dark movie that is still funny.

classic hanks and a classic 80's flick

Hanks' rant at the end ("WE'RE the wierdos!") is awesome. As is all the performances in this movie. That Corey kid is pretty damn annoying, but that was his role in pretty much every movie he's ever been in (with Stand By Me as the obvious exception).

My favorite quote: "I'm gonna kill everyone, Satan is good, Satan is my PAL..."

The intro to the movie that goes from the Universal Studios logo/animation and zooms in to the 'burbs is a personal favorite sequence of the movie.


Great Movie

This has got to be one of my favorite movies. It has a bit of comedy and a little scare here and there but all in all a wonderful movie. I watch it evey chance I get.

Beyond strange.

The 'Burbs is one of the strangest films starring Tom Hanks. Parts of this dark comedy are good and funny but mostly this film is a mess. Hanks saves this film and Carrie Fisher is pretty good as well but the plot is bizzarre. I won't give away too much but expect a quirky tale, I think I like Corey Feldman, it's a sick 1980s crush, give The 'Burbs a viewing soon.
