rating: 4 QuoteBob is a great family filmQuote
What about Bob from the beginning to the end is one funny scene after another. I say funny in the sense that it's hilarious to watch, but it would be far from funny if I was Dreyfuss' character.

Bill Murray once again shows why he is one of the greatest comedic actors in cinematic history. Richard Dreyfuss plays the serious lead and does so to perfection. It's so easy to dislike him in the movie and love Murray, but like I said if I was in Dreyfuss's shoes I would have gone crazy long before he did. The supporting actors are great, and I loved the old couple who were always the thorn in Dreyfuss's side.

The movie is directed by Frank OZ, yes, the frank oz, and he shows his vision as a comedic director is nothing to laugh at.

The movie is clean with no nudity, violence, and very little language. I think most families will love this movie and watch again and again. July 14, 2008

They couldn't have picked two better actors to play the main roles in this movie. Bill Murray gets most of the attention for playing Bob, but Richard Dreyfuss is also awesome as the snobby, too serious doctor who has some issues of his own to deal with. He is always ready to explode and when he does boil over it is great to watch! I recently put this movie in for my 6 year old daughter and she loves it! There are a few scenes with bad language but other than that it's a family friendly movie. I just can't help but looking at Bill Murray and laughing. He is great in every scene of this movie, and it may just be his best role ever. He received an oscar nomination for Lost In Translation, however I think that he was much better in this movie. Sure there are things in this movie that are silly and unbelievable, but it's a comedy and shouldn't be taken very seriously at all. I think this movie is great for some fun laughs for the whole family. It is the perfect movie to sit down and watch after a long week of work worries. Take a vacation... watch this movie.

One of THE most brilliant movies ever made.
If you don't like this movie you HAVE no sense of humor.
Dryfus is just hilarious, Bill Murray is just insane funny.
The plot is one of a kind, I don't know what people are complaining about with the plot.
The acting is just over the top hilarious.
Start, loved it.
Middle, loved it more.
End, didn't want it to.
One of the few Hollywood movies I wish they'd do a sequel.
One of the best and most original comedies ever.
A must see/ must own.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss stars in this comedy about a patient and his relationship with his psychiatrist. The roleplay is excellent and the storyline build up to a quite entertaining ending. This witty comedy will keep you laughing throughout the story and is great entertainment. Will be well worth buying as you'll want to watch it again. June 28, 2008

Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss star in this outrageously funny comedy. Bill Murray is Bob Wiley, a psychiatric patient who has an unlimited amount of phobias until he is recommended to an overachieving psychiatrist Dr. Leo Marvin (Dreyfuss). The noted doc skips town to take his family on vacation and Bob, for fear of being alone, follows him to his lakeside getaway. That's where the hilarity ensues. This movie is a nonstop laugh riot. It is ranked number 43 on Bravo's 100 funniest movies of all time and it is deservingly so. Easily one of Bill Murray's best comedic performances as he falls into his character so perfectly. Murray and Dreyfuss were hysterical on screen together. This film had me laughing from beginning to end. I highly recommend this movie, it will be a comedy classic for years to come. June 3, 2008
