Rating:  Summary: Get a Clue -- Get this DVD! Review: "Clue" (the movie), features just about every great comedy actor of the day. From Leslie Ann Warren to Michael McKean to Eileen Brennan to Howard Hessman to the priceless Tim Curry, they're all here! -- If you are familiar with the board game, just picture a film version of the search for "whodunit". This laugh-a-minute fun fest is loaded with outragous, silly slapstick, superbly acted out by the great cast. -- You'll be amazed at how many of the lines and gags get stuck in your head. I'll never be able to forget the flusterd looks of Mrs. Peacock, the wit and charm of Wadsworth or the subtle facial expressions of Mrs. White. The picture in this WIDE SCREEN VERSION is the best yet of this film since it's initial release. -- The soundtrack is kept in it's original mono, still I'd greatly enjoy hearing a stero or, even better, a surround sound version in the future.--Without a doubt the best feature of this DVD is the one with the multiple endings. After you select "play" you will be asked if you would lilke the player to randomly choose one of the three endings for you, or see all three of them at the end. Whoever thought of this feature deserves a raise as it greatly enhances the longevity of the disc and brings the film closer to it's board game roots. Now you have the option of really not knowing who did it until the final scenes play bringing suprise into the untold repeat viewings that are sure to occur. -- Get a clue--get this DVD! You won't be disappointed! *****
Rating:  Summary: Incredibly funny. Review: "'I'm the butler.' 'What exactly do you do?' 'I buttle, sir.'" This is one of the funniest movies ever made. Bare with the beginning; it's a little slow but well worth the wait. " 'Tell them it's not true.' 'It's not true.' 'Is that true?' 'No, that's not true.' 'Aha! So it is true! A double negative!' 'A double negative? You mean you've got...photogrpahs?'"

Rating:  Summary: A Fine Movie For The Whole Family... Review: "Clue" is a safe movie for family night with little profainity and lots of laughs. Tim Curry plays the "buttling" butler, Wadsworth, with a knack for solving mysteries. With an all-star cast, this board-game comedy delivers in all ways. Good clean humor takes the cake, while a little bit of wonderment is thrown in, too. Curry is supported by Eileen Brennan as Mrs. Peacock, Madeline Kahn as Mrs. White, Michael McKean as Mr. Green, Christopher Lloyd as Prof. Plum, Lesley Ann Warren as Ms. Scarlett, Martin Mull as Colonel Mustard, and Lee Ving as Mr. Boddy. And to make a long story short (Too Late!), this movie is a must-see for comedy buffs and fans of the board game!
Rating:  Summary: The Best Whodunit Ever Review: "Clue" is honestly one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I've watched it about 10 times and every time it's just as good. All of the characters are hilarious, and there are so many memorable lines. I LOVE IT!! "I hated her so much, it was like flames, on the side of my face, heathing breaths, heathing..."--Mrs. White
Rating:  Summary: Definately the best board-game based movie that there is! Review: "Colonel Mustard in the Conservatory with the wrench!" This accusation is commonplace for anyone evn remotely familiar with the board game of "Clue". This popular classic was transformed into a relatively unsuccessful movie about twelve years back. In keeping with the original plot of the game, many of the components remain the same: a crew of colorful characters, an imposing mansion with secret passageways, a multitude of weapons, and murder, or to be precise, six murders mingled with an underlying plot of blackmail. In addition to this, "Clue" contains hundreds of great one-liers, slapstick humor, and a handful of red herrings, all of which are pulled off smoothly by an all-star cast. Perhaps the most enticing feature of this movie is its conclusion. It contains three different endings that diverge from a common point in the movie, truly giving the audience a fair chance to figure out "whodunit". END
Rating:  Summary: RRRRUUUUUNNNNNNNNN DOWN THE HALL . . . Review: "I was in the hall . . . I know, because I was there." Tim Curry is absolutley wonderful in "Clue." As Wadsworth, "merely the humble butler, Sir", he is hilarious...But, all I have to say is that with those blue eyes, those boyishly great looks and that voice, he can only be so evil. END
Rating:  Summary: Why is it that everything I want to say Bryn's said? Review: "I'm not shouting! Alright, I am! I'm shouting, I'm shouting, I'm shout-" Tim Curry gives a swell performance in this flic, Wadsworth is just hilarious! Oh, yeah, and I agree with everything Bryn said. END
Rating:  Summary: Great comedy. Review: "Mrs. Peacock was a man?" This movie contains some of the best one-liners which I often find myself repeating for years and years later. A classic. Tim Curry steals the show! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
