Editorial Review:
Product Description: WILLIS IS TOP CAT BURGLAR WHO WANTS TO GO STRAIGHT IN THIS ACTION-PACKED COMEDY ADEVENTURE.
Amazon.com: Bruce Willis's awful, 1991 vanity piece is an abuse of audience goodwill and a waste of a good cast and director (Michael Lehmann of Heathers). The story, cowritten by Willis, concerns a cat burglar pressured into stealing precious art, including some from the Vatican. But the script is just a convenience upon which Willis piles his vaguely boorish brand of hip irony, assuming his audience will stay with him every step of the way. Certain, self-congratulatory scenes induce cringing--Willis and Danny Aiello, for instance, sing "Side by Side" (to brassy accompaniment on the soundtrack) every time they're working a job--but the overall effect is more irritating and baffling. Keep a good thought for Willis (an underrated actor better than the summer junk we usually see him in) by checking out his superior work in Pulp Fiction and his small but memorable role in Billy Bathgate. --Tom Keogh

Just like Eddie Murphy, Sylvester Stallone and Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis had a niche. It was specific and well-defined and it's name was "Die Hard Movies." Inside the niche he could do no wrong, but this success started him thinking he could do anything and succeed at anything because he was just so darned talented and charming. And Hollywood tends to indulge its successful stars and that's how we wind up in movie theaters with our mouths agape and thinking "Oh no! It's not a dream; this is ... Read More

Bruce Willis was very popular before he made this film, and he was in the enviable position of being able to make any movie he wanted. Why he chose to make Hudson Hawk is a a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma. Whatcha talkin' 'bout, Willis! Hudson Hawk? What hubris!
The film was met with universal disdain, and the mere mention of it was a very effective Bruce Willis put down (Insert joke here. Punchline: Hudson Hawk). Bruce Willis Backlash was in full swing.

Cat burglar Hudson Hawk (Bruce Willis) is fresh out of prison and ready to go straight. Forces conspire against him when two kinky art dealers known as Darwin and Minerva Mayflower (Richard E. Grant and Sandra Bernhard), and Kraft (James Coburn), a former C.I.A. operative, recruit him for one last job. The crooks want to get their hands on priceless Da Vinci pieces which contain magic crystals capable of turning any substance into gold. Hudson enlists the help of his best friend Tommy Five Tone (Danny ... Read More

Watch this movie expecting something absurd, poorly written, and action packed. This movie doesn't even take itself seriously, it's just corny silly fun. It's quotable, and great.
There are plot holes, confusing plot twists, and dumb dialogue, it is obvious they were re-writing while shooting. Despite all this, and for no good reason, I love this film.
If you find yourself loving films other people hate, give it a shot!
