Maybe this movie gets better after the 20 minute mark, but somehow I doubt that. This movie is very boring. The acting is bad, and nothing happens. I didn't finish watching this movie, but there is nothing that made me even remotely interested in this movie. I would not recommend this movie.

In London, four very different people team up to commit armed robbery, then try to doublecross each other for the loot. A Fish Called Wanda is one of those films that i expected to like and i really wanted to be honest especially when Jamie Lee Curtis stars who in my opinion is one of the best actors from this film especially her work in Halloween and True Lies was fantastic but in here not even her looks can save this. John Cleese and Kevin Kline are also pretty horrible too with many of their lines or the comedic lines as i should call them were boring and unfunny. The characters are thin ad feel like they were written on foot and the jokes were stupid as hell. It's like Mr.Bean but not funny in any way at all. Such a disappointing movie. (2/10)

Why do people think this is funny? It is not funny. It has an awful story line. It is sick at times. And it is just not funny. 7.6 come on who ever made this movie was not ever making an effort. Ghost busters is funny. Ghost busters II is funny. Dracula dead and loving it is funny. This is just crap. It is one of the worst comedy movies ever. I do not know why people like it. It is not funny. I give it 1. If I want to laugh I will see Young Frankenstein. Not this crap. If people like it is they business. But I do not get it. Do not wast your time. And do not wast your money. Do not see this awful movie.

"A Fish called Wanda" is a very British film. It tells the story of a robbery and how the participants try to gain control over the treasure, leading to a sheer chaos.As often with John Cleese, everything is a bit too loud, fast and hyperactive for me. I love how the film manages to create a chaos through the mix of very different characters but sometimes the very extrovert attempt to make the movie humorous takes the drive out of the plot a bit. The characters sometimes seem a bit too designed and don't really depict believable characters. I see that many viewers explicitly like this side of the film, just personally I don't feel it.This one is not a bad movie, don't get me wrong. It kept me interested and it is not really obvious to where it will lead, so you won't be bored and it even stood the test of time quite well. Nonetheless this is not the first movie that comes to my mind as an Oscar candidate and I have to say that there are better movies less known.
