Defected no good>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Subtly employing the city mouse/country mouse theme, MY COUSIN VINNY is a light-hearted courtroom comedy. While it occasionally stoops to some stereotyping, the movie doesn't do so mean-spiritedly. In any event, both sides get equal skewering. Vinny Gambini, brilliantly portrayed by Joe Pesci, is a Brooklyn boy who has finally passed the Bar (after repeated failures) and now finds himself defending his nephew and his nephew's friend against murder charges in the Bible Belt. Along with his too beautiful fiancee, played by Academy Award Winner Marissa Tomei, Pesci investigates the southern style of life, as he fathoms southern courtroom procedures and tries to get some sleep. The resulting clash of cultures is sometimes predictable, but honestly, is very inventive for the most part. The comedy of the court room scenes is heightened by the late Fred Gwynne who plays the presiding judge. His by-the-book habits and short-fused temper are a perfect foil to Vinny's laconic style. It is their interaction that feeds most of the cultural clashing. But there is also a clash of the sexes that underlies the film, as Vinny stubbornly refuses the help of his fiancee. This confrontation is also highlighted in the courtroom when the DA refuses to believe that she could possibly be considered an expert in automechanics, even though her brothers, her father, her uncles, and just about everyone else in her family are expert mechanics. (The DA becomes convinced in a wonderful cross-interview scene.) MY COUSIN VINNY was both critically well-received and a huge box-office success. There's a reason for that: it is a well-written, well-directed and perfectly acted comedy that stands up well even after repeated viewings. See it for yourself and you'll understand why, too.

Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei star as 2 amateur lawyers(who did not pass the bar) to defend their nephew and his friend from a murder rap. He learns court procedure as he goes and with the help of his observant and street smart girlfriend, takes on the establishment to prove his nephew's innocence. Lots of funny scenes and lots of "pre-planning" to pull off the stunt. well written, excellent acting(best performances for both Marisa Tomei and Joe Pesci). Excellent chemistry between them. Both are underrated actor/actress of this generation. Highly recommended. rating 4.5

This movie is hilarious in its portrayal of (albeit stereotypical) north - south and city - country differences in America. Joe Pesci is Vinny, the quintessential New York Italian- American male, and Maria Tomei nearly steals the show as his female counterpart. They are cultural fish out of water in an Alabama deep south town as Pesci tries to defend his cousin in a murder trial in a case of mistaken identity. All the cast is outstanding and the comedy ranges from puns, to slapstick, to high irony. Enjoy!

Marisa Tomei and Joe Pesci are a winning couple. Filled with excellent laughs and emotion, this is a comedy classic. The video could be a little bit better quality, but it's an older film and it looks great anyway!

Tomei and Pesci are great in this comedy. The dialogue is what shines and becomes even better upon multiple viewings. Highly recommended comedy.

This is another good transfer onto blu-ray of a well-liked film. There could have been more extras.

Everyone should watch this at least once! Especially all the Yutes! hahah watch it to get the reference

If you haven't seen it, what are you waiting for? The cast is wonderful and will leave you laughing.

funny movie with great acting. doesn't have a lot of extras but still worth buying for the movie itself.

This movie is a classic, i have owned it on every form that it has come out.

Not a fan of courtroom movies but this one goes in a different direction

One of the funniest movies ever made that comes at an affordable price.

My Cousin Vinny is one of my favorite movies! One of the best comedies of the 90s.
