Keine Frau ist so scharf wie die Axt in ihrer Hand...
Mit der Liebe ist das ja so eine Sache. Sie fällt nicht immer da hin, wo sie gut aufgehoben wäre - das scheint im Falle von Charlie Mackenzie auch so zu sein. Er hat sich in Harriet Michaels verliebt, eine Metzgerin. Dann bekommt er Hinweise mit, dass seine Freundin eine Mörderin sein könnte, die bereits drei Ehemänner auf dem Gewissen hat! Verstört macht Charlie Schluss. Doch seine Beziehung zu Harriet soll damit nicht für immer zerbrechen. Jemand anderes gesteht einen der Morde, Charlie fasst neues Vertrauen. Er erobert sich seine geliebte Metzgerin zurück und tritt wenig später mit ihr vor den Altar. Polizist Tony Giardino, ein Freund Charlies, macht eine beunruhigende Entdeckung: Er merkt, dass die des Mordes geständige Person unter geistiger Verwirrung leidet. Deswegen setzt er alle Hebel in Bewegung, seinen Kumpel zu warnen, dass dessen frische Braut vielleicht doch gefährlich ist. Der unbedarfte Charlie erfreut sich währenddessen seiner Flitterwochen...

Has not aged very well, nor has Myers schtick. Nothing standout, but it's light fun if you're in the mood for a 90s comedy. The best bits were actually the cop buddy with his sergeant and him yearning for a more cliche movie-like lifestyle.
So this is a... well. It's a movie. You can hear Shrek's voice every so often and that's pretty funny. It's a half decent RomCom. I guess I might just not be a Mike Myers guy? The dude is like if you took a whole classroom of theater kids from high school, fused them all together, and then turned the cringe factor up to 11. I just didn't jive with a lot of his antics and jokes. To his/the movies credit though, there were some laugh out loud moments. It's just the other, say 80% falls flat. I enjoyed the twists at the end that I didn't really see coming. Love a good twist. But it's a bit of a slog to get to when "something is finally happening." During the other parts of the movie, you experience the overall message, which to me, in the simplest of terms I can reduce it to is something like: "sometimes we are our own worst enemy when we're in love." Which is a pretty good message that I feel like a lot of people need to hear, so props on them for making a movie about that. Not my favorite RomCom in the world, but not the worst thing I've ever seen either. It does remind me that I do wish Slam Poetry would die and get thrown in a very shallow grave. *There She Goes starts playing for the 5th time*
Streamed via Hulu Catching up before it's leaving Hulu. I surprisingly had fun watching this. It's so '90s but something about this film felt so unique. The story is super cheesy but I kinda like it. I like the humor and side jokes, there are lots of them! Mike Myers is so charming and quirky in this. I just can't help but smile watching his quirkiness. First two thirds are hilariously cute and the third is unexpectedly thrilling. There's one song played 3 times in this and it bugs me. I'd appreciate more if horror is the center of the film.
I hadn't seen this in a number of years, and what I realized on this watch was that Mike Myers really wasn't all that funny, unless he was playing a cartoonish character. For instance, playing his own father in this film, he was quite funny, but as himself, his comedic attempts fell flat.
