Mousehunt
What might have been a one-note family comedy becomes something more thanks to the comic brilliance of co-stars Nathan Lane and Lee Evans, as well as the distinctive, dark-fable look given the film by a little-known director named Gore Verbinksi (could he be the next Tim Burton?). Lane and Evans play idiotic brothers who inherit a house and all but destroy it in pursuit of one small, pesky mouse. The guys are always the butt of the sight gags--most of which are very funny--but their considerable powers as slapstick artists are also at play. The climactic scene at an auction was the funniest scene in any American movie in 1997, the year of Mouse Hunt's release. --Tom Keogh

"...This rodents-rule effects fest is basically a movie-length Road Runner or Tom and Jerry cartoon as it zips and zooms behind walls and under floors..."

Brilliant
This movie should be better known than it is. But at least the director went on to make Pirates of the Carribean etc. Here you can see his fertile visual ... read more »

One for the family
Enjoyed watching this film with the family. It has some similarities to the home alone films, but the kids love these films to.

Very funny
This was an unexpectedly good film as I hadn't seen any reviews. The children laughed throughout. Strange ending, but some excellent twists.
