A great black comedy

This is a very good black comedy, with a great view on how different people have a different perception of the same situations. The three main characters each met a girl named Jewel, played by Liv Tyler, who is a different male fantasy for each of the three men. Each of the three men go through the same situations, but when they tell of them to other people, their perception of the situation is very different from what the other two say. That is a very good concept, probably not entirely original but it works very well in the movie. The plot is very good, very bizarre and extreme, which makes it a good black comedy. The acting is equally good, not one of the actors seemed out of place or out of their league. The comedy is very black, pitch black in some scenes, and a lot of people will definitely be offended by it, but fans of black comedy will probably enjoy it. Overall, this movie is not for everyone's taste, but most people who like black comedy will probably love it, as it is definitely one of the better black comedies. 7/10

concept doesn't work

Randy (Matt Dillon) recounts a story to Mr. Burmeister (Michael Douglas). Separately, Carl (Paul Reiser) is recalling the same night to his psychiatrist Dr. Green (Reba McEntire). One night at McCool's, bartender Randy is closing the bar and rescues Jewel (Liv Tyler) from a would-be rapist. Randy's cousin Carl is half-sleeping in his car and sees Jewel faking the struggle. Randy brings the sexy hot damsel home. Then her boyfriend Utah (Andrew Dice Clay) shows up to rob him. Jewel shoots Utah and Randy takes the blame. Detective Dehling (John Goodman) investigates the suspicious shooting that Randy claims to be self-defense in a robbery. Now Randy, Carl and Dehling all fall for the beautiful Jewel.

Liv Tyler is super hot. The storytelling is too criss-cross which keeps it from flowing properly. The comedy doesn't really work. The wild slapstick crimes and wacky characters aren't fun. The concept simply doesn't function.

Lonely...lonely...cool!

"One Night at McCool's" is one of those quirky films that comes out quite interesting. It portrays a young woman (Liv Tyler) crossing paths with three lonely men (Matt Dillon, John Goodman, Paul Reiser) and turning their lives upside down. Throughout most of the movie, you sort of wonder where it's going, but the hilarious end is sure to blow you away. It sure blew me away.

Maybe this movie isn't really anything special, but it's pretty neat. Sort of a look at how small things can proliferate. Also starring Michael Douglas, Reba McEntire and Andrew Dice Clay.

And one more thing: after watching this movie, you may feel tempted to spend the next few days singing "YMCA".
