Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Comedy
Review: 8 Heads in A Duffel Bag is definitely not your average comedy, but i think its one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. The plot is a little odd, and at some points slightly weak, but overall it presents a very comical situation. Joe Pesci is fantastic as usual in his role as a retiring mobster. David Spade, although he plays a relatively small role, is also hillarious. I highly recomend this movie, if you haven't seen it yet you're missing out big time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: JOE PESCI IS FUNNY AS ALWAYS
Review: A MOB HITMAN [JOE PESCI] LOSES A DUFFEL BAG THAT CONTAINS THE HEADS OF 8 DEAD PEOPLE AND HE GOES ON A QUEST TO GET IT BACK. GOOD IDEA AND IT WORKS OUT PRETTY WELL. OTHER THAN JOE PESCI, WHO'S FUNNY AS ALWAYS, DAVID SPADE HAD SOME FUNNY MOMENTS AS WELL. IF YOU NEED SOME GOOD LAUGHS, GET THIS MOVIE NOW.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: a bunch of silly actors
Review: I don't know, maybe I just wasn't in the "right mood" for this movie But the biggest problem with this comedy was actually quite simple: it just wasn't funny. I remember watching the first 30 minutes or so and suddenly realizing that nobody in the theatre was laughing at anything...including me! Sure, a couple of small things were humorous, but for the most part, the jokes just sat there, waiting for a response.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie rocks!
Review: I love this movie! It's one of the best movies I've ever seen! It was just as funny as Airplane, if not funnier!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: classic
Review: i loved this movie but one scene really made me laugh. the scene where the heads were singing mr. sandman. overall it's really funny and completely dark.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprisingly Entertaining
Review: I ran across it on cable and watched it, for lack of anything better to do at the time. Amazingly, I found it absolutely hysterical, laughing so hard, I could hardly breathe! It showcases Pesci's overlooked and under- appreciated comic abilities. If you liked him in My Cousin Vinny, you'll certainly get a kick out of this one. It might be a bit too slap-sticky at times for some people, but it is definitely worth adding to your collection. I will be looking forward to it's eventual release on DVD.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: poor
Review: I really didn't like 8 Heads in a Duffel Bag--though the premise is a good one. It's just that Schulman's writing didn't quite work out. The dialogue was stilted and made little sense and there was a little too much ludicrous comedy in the film. Pesci gave a good performance, but far from its best. It was just a poor effort.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Refreshing
Review: I saw this movie on tv, then rented it. I love it! It is no masterpiece, but it is a very refreshing change of pace for a movie! David Spade is awesome, and so is the rest of the cast! If you like quirky comedys, give this one a chance, you will not be dissapointed. Off-the-wall and absolutely hailarious! 8.5 out of 10!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hilarious!
Review: I wwonder why some people dislike this film, since it's one of the most enjoyable films I've ever seen. There are a considerable number of good jokes and hilarious situations, my favourites are when Fern Bennett (marvellous) is thrown from the car, and when Dyan Cannon has an overdose due to seeing the heads. Very good and enjoyable film, specially because of the appearance of the wonderful Kristy Swanson.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: 8 Heads in a Duffle Bag
Review: If you ever have traveled in an airplane and mixed up your bag with someone else's, this is the movie for you.

In spite of the gruesome name and plot of this movie, in which, Joe Pesci, a gangster tasked with delivering a duffle bag of eight heads removed as evidence of a mob ordered hit, the movie manages to be hilarious.

What happens is that Pesci's bag of severed heads gets mixed up with the bag of a hapless medical student going to meet his fiance's family for a trip to a lovely Mexican resort hotel.

How Pesci tries to retrieve his bag and the student tries to conceal the ghastley luggage he has inadvertently brought with him to the resort and all the mix-ups in between keeps the movie fast paced and rollicking.

Many extraneous characters become involved in the plot, leading to mix-up after mix-up, all drawn into this macabre comedy against their will.

You will love Pesci, Diane Cannon and George Hamilton. However if humor based on such a repugnant premise is not your cup of tea, pass this one by. It is not for the faint of heart.

If you liked either one or both of the "Weekend at Bernies" movies, you will surely enjoy this.
