Synopsis: A childless couple unable to adopt decide that a couple who just had quintuplets won't mind if they steal one of the babies. Thus begins the Coen brothers' madcap romp RAISING ARIZONA. Holly Hunter... [More]
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Holly Hunter, John Goodman, Trey Wilson
Director: Joel Coen
To their old fascination with Sunbelt pathology, to their side-winding Steadicam and pristine command of screen space, the Coens have added a robust humor, a plot that keeps outwitting expectations and a...dollop of sympathy for their forlorn kidnapers.
Sharp, inventive and hilarious, with a marvellous cast of Coen regulars.
Top CriticThe cartoon vision of southwestern tackiness doesn't cut very deep, but the mise-en-scene is packed with clever clutter.
An entertaining, energetic, and stylish comedy about a simple but loving couple who long to be parents.
Top CriticWhile film is filled with many splendid touches and plenty of yocks, it often doesn't hold together as a coherent story.

In a shrewdly calculated move to show their versatility, the Coens made this madcap comedy right after Blood Simple. If their debut was slow and spare, this one has breathneck pacing and hopping banter by terrific Holly Hunter and Nicolas Cage.
Starting from a point of delirious excess, the film leaps into dark and virtually uncharted territory to soar like a comet.

Raising Arizona... is an explosively clever and riotously funny exploration of fertility, homemaking, and the working class in the prisons and trailer parks of the desert southwest.

A highly original and funny film.
It's funny, but is it good? Like all the Coen brothers' work, it somehow lords itself over its audience.
