Critic Reviews of "A Fish Called Wanda"
Philadelphia InquirerJuly 30, 2013Perhaps the most unusual aspect of what is surely the year's most original and daring comedy is that John Cleese is not the funniest performer in it. Believe it or not, that honor goes to none other than the usually somber Kevin Kline.
Orlando SentinelJuly 30, 2013Somehow, the movie manages to do the impossible: It makes John Cleese less than hilarious.
Los Angeles TimesJuly 30, 2013Low comedy at high speed, it pretends to be a caper movie about a smooth London jewel heist and its infinitely complex aftermath. Actually, it's a smart farce about ingrained cultural differences.
Chicago TribuneJuly 30, 2013The movie's basic joke holds that the overbearing, unselfconscious Americans will do anything and say anything (and usually as loudly as possible), while the timorous British are nearly too polite to breathe.
TIME MagazineApril 27, 2009Wanda defies gravity, in both senses of the word, and redefines a great comic tradition.
Chicago ReaderApril 27, 2009Like many of the best English comedies, much of the humor here is based on character, good-natured high spirits, and fairly uninhibited vulgarity.
South Florida Sun-SentinelJuly 30, 2013A Fish Called Wanda is vintage black comedy, British-style -- a cruel, dastardly, down-and-dirty jewel-robbery romp that pits thief against thief, while entangling an innocent bystander in the web of greed, romance and decidedly cockeyed high jinks.
Total FilmJuly 30, 2013Cleese's cracking script gives it a solid foundation, but it's the supporting cast who make this movie wanda-ful.
People MagazineJuly 30, 2013Putting heart and heat into a film that could have easily slid by on silliness, Cleese proves himself a master actor.
Philadelphia Daily NewsJuly 30, 2013As in most of his Python parts... Cleese's character is an extended riff on the concept of pomposity. But Archie is more leavened with humanity than any of his other roles.
Radio TimesJuly 30, 2013This hilarious tale of criminal incompetence and transatlantic eccentricity is easily John Cleese's finest achievement since Fawlty Towers.
Christian Science MonitorJuly 30, 2013There are a few hilarious moments, and a few more that are foolish and even disgusting.
