Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Not short on murder, mayhem, or any other screwball '70s conventions, Foul Play is a wonderful vehicle for Goldie Hawn. She plays Gloria, a librarian "ready to take a chance again," who ends up the target of an assassination ring. Chevy Chase, fresh off of Saturday Night Live, does the closest thing to real acting he would ever achieve (okay, maybe Fletch) as Tony, the cop assigned to protect Gloria. Dudley Moore made an indelible impression on American audiences as Stanley Tibbets, a surprisingly kinky symphony conductor. But it's the quirky things that make this film: the grandmothers playing Scrabble with expletives, Burgess Meredith's snake Esme, the old Japanese couple in the back of the careening limo. From the opening credits with Barry Manilow crooning the title song, this is a fond trip down memory lane. --Keith Simanton

This review pertains to the 2004 "Widescreen Collection" release of 'Foul Play'. I was amazed at how great this 1978 comedy looks on DVD! Anamorphic widescreen that is enhanced for 16x9 aspect ratio TVs--the crystal-clear images fill the entire screen--no black bars anywhere. Colors are rich and natural and on my high-defintion, large-screen TV system (with a Toshiba 1080p HD DVD player) with surround sound, the movie looked and sounded almost like a high defintion DVD. The sound is also great- ... Read More

Foul Play made its debut in the theater exactly 30 years ago today, July 24, 1978. I still hadn't quite arrived on the scene just yet, but I wish I had been because I sure would've loved having had the privilige of seeing this little gem of 70's cinema on the big screen! Still a very funny comedy/thriller with really good performances from Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. Filled with great one-liners, classic quotes, sight gags (watch for the scene with the two old ladies playing Scrabble) and the best ... Read More

This is a great film, it has a little of everything murder, suspense, thrills and of course comedy.
Goldie Hawn is very good as the librarian that is duped into a series of thrilling events.
Burgess Meredith is a hoot as her over protective landlord with a hint of "super spy" ability.
Chevy Chase is a big surprise as the police detective that comes to her rescue " With his comic ability and charm". Oh did I forget to mention it also has romance.
Five Stars!!!!!!

Foul Play is good laugh with some suspense and fair bit of Fun.
Chevy Chase' first role and it cemented his career. Possibly a bit dated but every bit enjoyable. Dudley Moore is hilarious and the Villians are all suitably sinister. Watch for the Martial Arts fight with Burgess Meredith and Rachel Roberts (she's one tough mumma).
Oh and Goldie is as cute as always !!

I never get tired of this film, Chevy Chase should have done more films than this instaed of all of those Vacation Sequels. I still laugh at the scenes with Billy Barty (TRUE TRUE), and the car scene (KOJAK....BANG BANG). definitly worth it.
