Neil Simon is capable of some decent stuff--and then there's this dreck. Woody Allen and Peter Falk are two ageing members of a comedy duo, re-united by Falk's niece, played by Sarah Jessica Parker, who works as an agent. Others have commented on the "lack of chemistry" between Allen and Falk. I'm not sure how much of that is the actors' part; I think mostly this is a problem with the script and the directing. Falk's character is played as such a nasty old coot that nobody would want to be around ... Read More

First off, I am a great fan of Woody Allen. I toured nationally plaing his role in Play It Again, Sam --but he is totally miscast in this version of The Sunshine Boys. There is no sparkle between him and Peter Falk. It is lifeless and disappointing. It should never have been done. As other comments attest, the movie version with Matthau and Burns is vastly superior. Sometimes ---great talents just don't work well together. That's the case here. Surely they knew it was not working when they shot ... Read More

I cannot believe how awful this film was. Woody and Peter are such classics, and one would think that a film starring them that is based on a Neil Simon play would be great. But it isn't. It was painful. This film is not funny, it is so terrible that by the end of it I wished I had never known it existed.

The original with Walter Matthau and George Burns is so much better, it's not even funny. I like Allen and Falk, but this is an embarassment to them.

To Woody Allen/Peter Falk/Neil Simon fans, this is must viewing. I think they both had a good time making this, and I sure enjoyed the viewing. Even if you don't like the film as much as other Woody films, the music, as always, is a pleasure. I would love an album of "Songs Woody Allen Movies are Made of." This film manages to get the story of two old ex-partners who reunite briefly to be touching, yet not sticky. Sarah Jessica Parker is excellent as the incredibly patient neice of Peter Falk, and ...
