A fine naked woman holding a gun
Review of The Whole Nine Yards DVD by Jordon

Advantages: Bruce, classic comedy scenes, cast, funny in parts
Disadvantages: Bruce didn’t get naked but Amanda did

I watched The whole nine yards starting Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry a few nights ago as it was showing on TV. Morgan Creek Productions and Franchise Pictures present a comedy about life, love and plenty of ammunition. Directed by Jonathan Lynn and written by Mitchell Kapner. The film is produced by David Willis and Allan Kaufman and executive produced by Elie Samaha and Andrew Stevens. **Story/Plot** The story is based in a peaceful Montreal ...

If Oz and Jimmy want to live then they have to stick together. Jimmy is a hit man who is hiding out from Janni who is the leader of the notorious Gogolak Gang in Chicago a man who has been headline news for ratting out the leader of the gang Janni. Jimmy's beautiful, estranged ... Read review

Don't forget the corpses.
Review of The Whole Nine Yards DVD by Defiler

Advantages: Reasonable acting, Good start, Some very funny moments
Disadvantages: Acting could have been much better from many actors, Story trails off after the first half, Humour isn't constant

...wasn’t anything special and is the type of film you will probably have seen many times before and will see many times again, there is nothing really new to the film, it’s just an enjoyable enough, reasonably funny comedy. Nick (Matthew Perry) is a dentist living in Canada and struggling to pay off his dead father-in-law’s debt. When his new neighbour moves in and turns out to be Jimmy “The Tulip” Tudeski (Bruce Willis), ...
...to travel to Chicago in the hope of receiving a finders fee. While he is gone she tries to hire a hitman herself to kill her husband feeling he’s worth more dead than alive. The story started promising and the first half of the film was great, slowly building up and adding a number of new elements to the story, with the story going in different directions and remaining interesting, always introducing something new or adding a new element to ...

More Like 7.5 Yards But Still Worth Checking Out
Review of The Whole Nine Yards DVD by wampyrii

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...in a starring role and the words 'black comedy' having been firmly attached to it by critics. Having seen the rather lightweight and hugely unimpressive major movie debuts of the other cast members of Friends and seen more than a few black comedies which completely lost me and everyone else in the movie theatre I probably would have skipped on past this were it not for the presence of Bruce Willis. I have yet to see him in a bad movie(well ok, Unbreakable ...
...to turn in Tudeski to the Hungarian mafia in exchange for a cash reward. In true black comedy style, this is just the foundation for a number of plot twists and turns as it all becomes rather complicated and Oz's life just gets more convoluted. Sure, it doesn't sound up to much and you'll probably be inwardly groaing at yet another gangster realted movie, but its much cleverer than that. There are some great one liners in this movie and some excellent, ... Read review

Fumble From Nine Yards
Review of The Whole Nine Yards DVD by utero

Advantages: Amanda Peet goes topless
Disadvantages: No laughs, Perry's 'Chandler' method acting

...a nice jazzy version of the Gershwin tune 'They All Laughed'. A good end to a comedy film you would think but this is one 'comedy' that really isn't funny at all. You can see the studio executives at Warner Bros when they got their hands on this script. "You know who's funny? That Chandler guy from Friends who flaps his arms about a lot, he'd be great in this movie!" "Hey and what about Bruce Willis, both of them in the same movie is box office gold!" ...
...and pat each other on the back before deciding where they should go for lunch. The film sees Matthew Perry as Nick, a struggling dentist who is married to a french canadian (Rosanna Arquette). She's a woman who couldn't care less and of course this makes Nick anervous and unstable guy. His demeanour isn't helped by the fact that renowed hitman Jimmy 'The Tulip' Tudeski (Willis) move in next door. Soon Nick finds himself involved in a farce style ... Read review

Another fine mess you gotten me into
Review of The Whole Nine Yards DVD by dave27

Advantages: Willis and Perry
Disadvantages: A pretty blatant lift of Analyze This

All hail Matthew and Bruce, the new age comedy duo, the latest inheritors to the mantle worn by Laurel and Hardy way back when, and they certainly give a damn good attempt at tickling your humour buds in this American buddy movie - which clearly owes more than a smidge to Analyze This. You get Matthew Perry subbing as a dentist in place of Billy Crystal's psychiatrist and Bruce Willis as Jimmy The Tulip over the more substantial Bob De Niro, but ...
...he has ever been. The premise is this. Perry plays Nichols Oz Oseransky who lives with his wife and her mother in Montreal, Canada and is a successful dentist, but his marriage is a sham and they both hate each other, as he confides in his assistant at the surgery. However, they're both too boring to do anything about it until Willis as Jimmy the Tulip Tudeski moves in next door to them and changes everything. He’s on the run from a Chicago hood. ...

Reviews which might be of interest for The Whole Nine Yards DVD    
Good characters, unimpressive storyline
Review of The Whole Ten Yards DVD by  MichaelKleo

Advantages: Bruce Willis cooking!!
Disadvantages: Lacks that something which it desperately needs

...I loved the first film "The Whole Nine Yards" it was well written, with a good story line and believable gangsters, unfortunately this sequel let itself down and will leave viewers unsurprised at the fact that the film was released on DVD so soon after its short lived cinema appearance. The story line hasn't been well written and with actors as good as Bruce Willis and Mathew Perry you expect a better film. If you loved the first film then out of respect you have to watch this film but you will be left feeling that the film was missing something, and that something is what you sat down to watch. I actually own the film and watch it every now and again but only only when I am really desperate for a film, it is still funny and worth a quick watch but only if I have exhausted all other options....

DVD Description

A mob comedy in which ex-mobster Jimmy "The Tulip" Tudeski (Willis), who's now living in Canada as part of the Witness Protection Program, becomes a target yet again, much to his dismay. All of this is because of the couple next door--more specifically, his neighbor's greedy wife, Sophie (Arquette). When Sophie learns of Jimmy's true identity, she sends her befuddled husband Nicholas (Perry) to Chicago to track down the mob and inform them of Jimmy's whereabouts, expecting a fruitful reward in return. From there, events spiral even further out of control.

Professional reviews

Review: "...The real star of YARDS is Amanda Peet....Her smile has the warm wattage of Julia Roberts..." (New York Times, p.E12, 18/02/2000)

"...Peet goes the whole nine yards [She] comes into her own here as a comic bombshell..." (Rolling Stone, p.82, 16/03/2000)

"...Peet is offbeat and loveable....[Duncan] balances charisma and menace to perfection..." (Total Film, p.89, 01/07/2000)

"...There are quite a few laughs to be had from the deliberately ludicrous and extreme plot reversals, as well as from the spot on playing of the cast..." (Variety, p.39-45, 14/02/2000)
