Bowfinger [DVD] [Eng/Fre] [1999]

If you like Steve Martin and Eddie Murphy I think you will find this movie really funny. There are some really hilarious scenes (and some not so hilarious) but overall I enjoy watching this movie over and over.

This is one of the underrated comedies of the last 25 years in my opinion. Great cast including 2 greats, lots of great quotes. However, video and audio quality along with special features aren't improved over the DVD so while I'd recommend watching I can't endorse an upgrade.

For some reason, this film gets trashed, written by Steve martian (with Eddie Murphy pulling double (acting) duties. full with backhanded jabs and laugh out loud moments.genuinely a great comedy. don't listen to the haters

So the movie does look good in places and not so good in other places. The lighting had a lot to do with the image quality, and in the sun light it was overexposed a bit and not as sharp. While inside, the clarity was much better. Not too bad for an older release.

Murphy and Martin star in this enjoyable skewering of the Hollywood film industry. While not as laugh out funny as I hoped, both actors have some nice moments (especially Murphy who plays two roles). The parody at the film's end, to quote Murphy's character "Awesome"!

Two of my favorite comedians in a hilarious movie made to poke fun at Hollywood. A great supporting cast too, Robert Downey and Heather Graham are scene stealers as well. Ridiculous and intelligent writing only Steve Martin can pull off. I wish Hollywood could stop taking themselves so seriously and make some fun movies again, we need them!

Very funny movie. The whole concept of this movie is that they are filming a movie with a major actor as their leading star, only the guy doesn't have a clue he's being filmed in the movie.

I remember when I first saw this at age 13 I thought it was just stupid. Seeing it a second time and not being a silly teenager I really enjoyed it and found it funny.
