In plain English the producer has nothing to say but manage to drag forever. The movie is pretty close to reality but I dont watch movies to see how close to reality they are. This movie reminded me " Showgirls " where a lot of half-naked chicks run around for no reason at all. September 27, 2008

The fastest 129 minutes you will ever spend reading subtitles. I've seen BLACK CAT, WHITE CAT around 10 times now and every time I don't want it to end cause I'm having too much fun.

A brief description of the plot would be the adventures of some Gypsy mobsters, a forced wedding and a guy climbing out of the basement of an outhouse and cleaning himself off with a live duck, but really no description can do this film justice cause it is lightning paced madness from beginning to end.

The coked out mobster singing and dancing at the wedding is one of the funniest scenes in movie history. I love this movie!

rating: 5 QuoteThe Marx Brothers take Gypsy culture! - Put this on DVD!!Quote
There is no way to summarize the plot of this film, except to say it's what you'd get if you dropped the Marx Brothers into Gypsy culture and stirred it all up. It's wild, crazy, and filled with music and dancing and unforgettable characters (played by real actors and actresses, not Hollywood ken-and-barbie dolls). You either like this kind of thing, or you don't. Astoundingly, some don't. Go figure! For me, it's a joy to watch.

Us poor American-speaking provincials are fortunate to have "Underground" and - recently - "When Father Was Away on Business" on DVD. PLEASE put "Black Cat, White Cat" on DVD, too!! After "Underground", it's my Kusturica favorite. April 28, 2005
