I was so unaware of the negative reviews and poor ratings this movie had..
It's like the ratings they give to 'Santa Claus conquers the Martians'... IT'S A KIDDIE MOVIE FOR GOD'S SAKE...
Well this movie is just a great popcorn silly couple hours with fun characters and beautiful locations...
I watch it every year during the holidays.. Just makes me feel good..
It's as if someone (drunk) compared this movie to the 'Third Man'.. of course it's not.. so I can't believe so many commentators are drunk... ???
It's FUN... jez..

Like Bugs use to say 'What a bunch of ma-rooooooons !!'

Not gonna lie. It's one of my favorite movies. And on that list is The Godfather, and Pulp Fiction, and Shawshank, etc. Yes, these are "better" movies, but FG is as watchable as any of them.

For me it's one of those films where nothing quite works - which is a pity because I really like the cast. I guess we all have 'bad' films that we enjoy watching (Malone, High Road to China) but this is not one of mine.
