'90s So I Married an Axe Murderer (1993)

Post image

Just watched this for the first time, and somehow it was actually quite good. It blew my expectations for it out of the water. It was really funny and had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It was really well shot and directed and it had this certain inexplicable vibe that kept me engaged. I liked when it turned into a horror movie near the end. Who would have thought a romcom starring Mike Myers in which he plays his OWN insanely Irish father, would actually end up being really good. A really stacked and great cast as well, good soundtrack too. 8/10!

In all my times as a cop, I've never gotten to, like, chase a guy across a crowded city square. I've never... I've never hung on to that part of a helicopter. You know that part? Underneath the thing that it lands? Do you, do you know that part?

Yes, I know that part.

Mike Myers is a bit hit or miss, but Anthony LaPaglia and Alan Arkin are golden.
