Steve Martin
Steve Martin & Martin Short—
Only Murders in the Building
—5/25/2022
[Martin:] I've read that monkeypox is sexually transmitted, so neither Marty nor I could possibly catch it." [Short:] "Unless you can catch it through batteries."
Bringing Down the House (2003)
You'll empathize with Plowright's appropriation from Dorothy Parker: 'What fresh hell is this?'
Cheaper By the Dozen (2003)
Birth (2004)
No one in the film comes across as a flesh-and-blood character...
Birth
is overdressed with nowhere to go.
Shopgirl (2005)
The Pink Panther (2006)
Martin's innate verbal panache is the only asset that shows any reliability here.
Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005)
Okay, everybody, back to your shopping--there's nothing to see here.
The Pink Panther 2 (2009)
For those looking for something for the kids in a
Mr. Bean
vein, there are worse things than
Pink Panther 2
. But the overall experience remains dispiriting to those of us who remember Peter Sellers.
Fantasia/Fantasia 2000 (1940)
Though
Fantasia
didn’t perform as well as Walt Disney had hoped, it remains a testament to his exceptional cinematic genius.
The Big Year (2011)
If the mere mention of the blue-footed booby sends you into paroxysms,
The Big Year
is the film for you.
Father of the Bride/Father of the Bride, Part II (1991)
The strengths of these films are not so much laughs as sincerity and heart.
Home (2015)
Another conspicuously packaged product seemingly designed to wear down an audience more than entertain it. While wee ones won't notice, they probably won't remember
Home
by the time the car ride gets them back to the real thing.
