Even though it's only March, Analyze This is going to be the comedy to beat this year - nothing else so far has come close.

It all ends in a hail of bullets and profanities -- but the laughs keep coming.
08/22/08
Sometimes very funny, but wears its sudden tone swings and flurries of profanities like a pair of cement shoes...
08/07/08
It's a one-joke movie, but it's an awfully good joke, told here by experts.
07/23/07
Not since Midnight Run has Mr. De Niro been afforded such a perfect opportunity to flex his comedic muscles.
07/14/07
[De Niro and Crystal] would seem to be perfectly cast as this oddest of odd couples, but something has gone wrong with the comic chemistry.
04/27/07
The comedy is heavy and the use of the stars lazy and cliched...
06/24/06
Unfortunately for every gag that DeNiro and Crystal pull off -- and they do have an effective comedic chemistry -- the script strands them in eddies of frivolity.
12/06/05
What De Niro ends up doing is simply burlesquing himself, much as he would do if he were guest-hosting Saturday Night Live.
07/21/05
Robert De Niro gets the best out of his performance as the psychologically- challenged gangster.
04/09/05
What we learn -- yet again -- is that potentially terrific comedies are often whacked by filmmakers who feel the need to spread a little therapy themselves.
08/07/04
In Midnight Run (1988), De Niro and Charles Grodin made a wonderful team, but the pair in Analyze This doesn't seem to click in the same way.
10/23/03
A witty, upbeat comedy that is more concerned with making its audience laugh than any other of its cinematic virtues (or lack thereof).

No review available.
05/20/03
Nothing new, especially for its stars, but it's good fun nonetheless.
02/08/03
Unfortunately for every gag that DeNiro and Crystal pull off -- and they do have an effective comedic chemistry -- the script strands them in eddies of frivolity.
12/08/02
You don't go into Analyze This expecting to be surprised; you go into it hoping to be amused. Using that yardstick, the film is a terrific success.
