Groundhog Day (1993) Review

Before I watched Groundhog Day, I had only seen two Bill Murray movies. I watched Zombieland online in Spring 2014, and then again on DVD in Fall 2014. I didn't hate Bill Murray, but he didn't impress me much. I also watched Ghostbusters later in Fall 2014. Bill Murray was fantastic in Ghostbusters. He delivered a great performance and made his character loveable. In Groundhog Day, he delivers an even greater performance. Bill Murray deserved an Oscar Nomination and Golden Globe Nomination, but didn't receive either. I've told you about Bill Murray, but what about the rest of the film? There isn't much else. Bill Murray carries the whole film, and without him, it a complete piece of junk. The story was incredibly original, extremely entertaining, but never truly impressed me. It wasn't funny. It wasn't memorableI liked the movie, but it wasn't the greatness I expected.
Movie Rating: B
