Way to ruin this movie Robin Williams


Nothing funny about seeing a guy who actually killed himself jump off a bridge in this movie. Then afterwards he goes into this diatribe about how he realized life was worth living as he jumped off the bridge.

Makes him even more of a dick for what he did imo.

I'm sorry but you cannot compare Robin as an actor performing a script a year earlier to the incomparable mental and emotional pain that led to him committing suicide. Suicide is not a "selfish" act, it is brain chemistry run amok that causes seriously negative thoughts to pervade a person's head. Don't speak ill of the dead- especially someone you did not know and gave you countless hours of joy and laughter through his movies and TV shows!

Oh come on----When he started he was funny, but his comedy got stale, His dramatic work is where he shined for me,

And this isn't a bad flick




You don't have to stand tall, but you do have to stand up!

I never liked the guy, he just wasn't funny. I first watched him on Mork and Mindy when I was a kid. I hated that show but my family watched it and we only had one TV back then. This movie was a complete waste of time. Awful!!! I only watched it for Mila Kunis. So hot!!

I never liked him either. His manic style always annoyed me more than anything. Also he was especially bad in this.

I believe that he had already made plans to kill himself when he was filming this movie. It just took him time before he felt it was the right time to go.
