Critic Reviews for Foul Play
All Critics (27) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (20) | Rotten (7) | DVD (5)
One recognizes the romantic comedy impulse behind the sexual sparrings of Hawn and Chase. It's the execution that leaves everything to be desired.
Writer Colin Higgins makes a good directorial bow.
Unsatisfactory as a whole, the film is hilarious and tense in bits.
Mr. Higgins's penchant for mixing visual elegance with coarse gags is equally ill-advised, especially because it makes him work the gags so hard.
Director Colin Higgins plays foul with the audience, constructing some of the most dishonest suspense sequences ever filmed.
...a comfortably familiar premise that's employed to somewhat overlong yet mostly entertaining effect...
Audience Reviews for Foul Play
I wasn't expecting big things from this film, but having Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase starring in this, I had at least expected an easy watching comedy, but it had very little entertainment value.
Super Reviewer
A funny, quirky, cool comedy with a good cast and an interesting story. I saw this a while ago, but I remember it was really good. I should watch this again sometime.
Super Reviewer
A Fucking snooze.
