A favorite in my family, 2008-10-30
I had to review What About Bob? because this is one of the few comedies that almost everyone related to me really seems to like. I know just about every line by heart and sometimes can't help but say them out loud before the character does. br / br /Bill Murray is at his best here as the annoying OCD patient, but you can't help but care about this guy. Richard Dreyfuss knocks it out of the park as Dr. Leo Marvin. This is a great performance that just builds and builds until he finally snaps into a murderous rage. He gets just as many laughs as Bill Murray. br / br /If you haven't seen it yet, just buy it for the cheap price. Maybe you can share it with your family and it will become a favorite of your household.

Very Funny!!!, 2008-09-24
I found this on tv last night, so I thought I'd check it out. I am very glad that I watched it because it is extremely funny! Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss were awesome together. Bill plays Bob Wiley, an obsessive compulsive man who seeks Dr. Leo Marvin's help. When Dr. Marvin goes on a vacation, Bob tries to call him, but Dr. Marvin doesn't like to deal with patients at home. Bob even pretends to be a police officer in order to get Dr. Marvin's address. Bob finds him, and Dr. Marvin thinks it's highly inappropriate, but his wife, his son, and daughter all start to like Bob. Bob even helps Dr. Marvin's son to dive, which he was afraid of. Dr. Marvin really wants Bob to leave because he has a tv interview with Good Morning America about his new book. Dr. Marvin really starts to lose his cool when Bob is in tv with him and won't leave because everybody seems to like him. Dr. Marvin is pushed over the edge and begins to think of ways to kill Bob, but his plans fail. If you love comedy, Bill Murray, and Richard Dreyfuss, you'll love WHAT ABOUT BOB?!!!

roses are red, violets are blue, I'm a pschizophrenic and so am I, 2008-09-08
This is a much better movie than I was expecting. When someone explained the premise to me, I thought there was a potential to be good, with way too much room to go bad instead. I like Bill Murray to an extent. He has done some great flicks, like Caddyshack and Groundhog's Day. But he can go overboard sometimes like he did in Stripes. Richard Dreyfuss is a great actor, and I have not seen much from him that didn't impress me. But this plot of a psychiatrist (Dreyfuss) going on a vacation and having his new neurotic patient (Murray) follow him...the shrink is scared, angry and trying to get rid of the nut...but everyone including the shrink's family just loves the nut case...this is a premise that could have easily tanked and should have easily just nose-dived into stupidity and worthlessness. BUT I GOTTA GIVE THESE GUYS CREDIT!!! Somehow, they made it work!!! The cast blend so easily and well together. Dreyfuss and Murray both give spectacular performances and really work off each other very well! They script is exceptional, given the plot they had to work with. They made it funny, without being awkward or stupid. They actually pulled off this incredibly inplausable idea...and made it plausable!!! (at least by comedy standards) At least during the 90 minutes or so that you're watching this movie, you can be drawn into believing this neurotic mess and lovable guy Murray is winning the affections of everyone around him, even as the refined shrink Dreyfuss is slowly driven mad to the point of contemplating murder! The adept and brilliant comedic script and strong, wonderful acting by the entire cast make this a delightfully funny and fun viewing experience. I'll admit that when people first recommended this to me, I was skeptical. I didn't think this movie would work. But I'm not a skeptic anymore. Congratulations to everyone who made this movie so funny and pleasant to watch. And for anyone who took the trouble to enjoy this flick...you've already had your reward. Recommended! br / br /
