@@lizzy-wx4rx I think Caddyshack is a bit overrated. It's funny, but I never saw it as the comedic masterpiece that a lot of people, like you, apparently, see it to be.

@@slyjokerg I don't see it as a "comedic masterpiece", lol. I like Fletch a lot, I just laughed more at Caddyshack, including Chevy Chase's scenes, he's hilarious in it. (Fletch actually did an homage to his Caddyshack character in one of the clips here, with the "as far as you know" line).
@@lizzy-wx4rx Well... the original comment was about "Chevy Chase's best movies." The first thing out of your mouth was "Caddyshack," which implied that you think it was extraordinarily good. And, of course, I said "apparently." You just doubled down on that implication by saying that even though you "like Fletch a lot," you laughed MORE at Caddyshack, including that Chase was hilarious in it. He was pretty good, and the movie was pretty funny overall, but it wasn't the comedic masterpiece that many people see it to be, which is a group that STILL seems to include you, perhaps even more so now. LOL
I remember seeing Fletch in the theater with my older brother. It was one in only a handful of films, he and I saw starting with The Toy in 1982 and ending with Youngblood in '86. Fletch was the best and it's still hilarious after over 35 years.

I get so tired of people griping about 'spoilers'. It gets to the point where some folks think a trailer is a spoiler, but then they wouldn't know the context of the scenes they're looking at unless they saw the film and then realized what those scenes are. I personally don't care if a movie's 'spoiled'. I want to know what I'm going to go watch and a good movie will be enjoyable and the best movies, even if you know what's going to happen, will still entertain and surprise you. "Spoilers"...ugh...spoilers go on cars, critics that can talk openly about a movie are reviews.

5:30 Happy 35th Birthday Ian Fleming's A View To A Kill James Bond 007. 1985 - 2020. 35 Years Of James Bond Movie Magic Action Adventure And Excitement. My Name Is Bond. James Bond. X
Unfortunately, most of the Bond films have been remakes of Goldfinger. Dr. No and From Russia With Love were both successful, but Goldfinger made Bond a phenomenon, and the producers beat the formula to death. Not that it matters to audiences. When a Bond film follows the Goldfinger formula they complain it's the same old thing; when a Bond film goes outside the formula they complain it's too different from all the other films.
Why do I always feel like the only one who actually enjoyed A View to a Kill in all of its cheesy, ridiculous splendor. It's not a particularly good movie, but I found it highly entertaining. Sometimes dated trash is entertaining.
It's also the most 80s of the Bond films. What makes the series fun for me is how the individual films are such an awesome time capsule for the time in which they are made. A View to a Kill is a perfect example from its theme song to its fashion.
My father was in extra in "Goodbye New York" he's one of the rabbis from the clip they showed here. We've been looking for this crappy "movie" for so long now. This is the only bit of it available honestly that "film" was so terrible that even in Israel one can't find a copy people are highly ashamed of it and pretend it doesn't even exist. According to dad he and his pal John another rabbi extra were paid each about twenty shekels basically peanuts even back then. Also neither understood Hebrew all that well so they acted as over the top as they could just for laughs but no one working on the project seemed to care enough to tell them "Please don't".
@@reneedennis2011 Here's an update just in case your still interested. Dad managed to find a copy via someone who runs a blog about films that are either lost or simply hard to find. It's in fairly good quality image wise and you can definitely see my father pulling silly faces and his pal right next to him laughing his arse off. Further digging and apparently this film has about a dozen different titles in Hebrew alone not that you'll be able to find anything when looking up one of them. I'm still not sure as to why it's been buried like that sure it was panned but nothing too bad compared to every other terribly received film at the time best guess is that the Israelis thought -hey we have Julie Hagerty this could be our shot at making Hollywood really notice the film industry we have here - or something to that effect.
Moore didn't take it seriously and took us along for the ride. Same with Chevy in Fletch. These guys missed the boat on these ones (of course Siskel was right about the Silicon Valley types - today more that ever - who cares if they die? Wow, Jamie Lee was her most fuckable then).
The Roger Moore-era Bond films did have a lot of silly--even meta, in some cases--moments, but I love when anyone acts like the Sean Connery films were without comedic elements. The Bond films were always a romp; they didn't start getting serious until the tryingly tight-wound Daniel Craig movies. The same symptom everything else in the mid-2000's onward suffers from: everything's gotta get the fuckin "gritty reboot" treatment.
i agreed with gene about fletch.. it was a movie i watched with an older sibling on vhs the year it came to video stores and he fell asleep half way through it,.. lol i might not get a lot of laughs from the film but the more serious side of the well directed effort balances nicely with chases character and i feel the result is a hardboiled type crime film comedy that works well on two sides at once.
Watching this just after Chevy went all in against everyone and everything that isn't him in comedy. Bitter unfunny old man. ...I'm no blind hater. Fletch was a damn funny movie.
i was 13 in 85, i was never a Chevy Chase fan and i remember when Fletch was new on cable and it was on ALL the time. maybe i was young and didnt get it or something at the time, all i remember is i never could sit through it. of course at that time i was never into Steve Martin or Bill Murray or Martin Short or Dan Akroyd either. though Bill Murray and Martin Short have grown on me since then. and weirdly i liked that dumb Dr Detroit movie when i was young LOL.
Moore was my fave James Bond. He was just different, more humor based than Connery. That said, I liked AVTAK yet it was pretty flawed and Moore was a few years too old for the role at this point.
I liked Fletch and think it one of Chevy's better movies. Perfect is what I called a missed opportunity. Poor writing doomed that movie Most critics really trashed it and got a Razzie nomination, but I didn't think it was that bad. Gene's mixed review is what I agree with the most. Julie Hagerty was really annoying in Goodbye NY. She was a better fit in the ensamble cast of Airplane.
this 240p is great for my eyes, i'm gonna enlarge the video to make it even clearer this is wonderful stuff is this a new form of HD? i never seen such detail
OMG Christopher Walken was awesome in AVTAK, so were Grace Jones and Roger Moore. The film was a celebration of the 80's, I think S&E are simply too old to enjoy it
Wow how wrong can these guys get it, Siskel especially, To say that Christopher Walken is more the tender type of actor. I think he went on to be the go to actor for psycho bad guys after A View To Kill, as Siskel wrongly calls it. If you're gonna review a movie get the name right.
In all fairness, before 'A View To A Kill', Christopher Walken did do several roles that were more on the "tender" side, 'Dogs Of War' notwithstanding, and maybe the cameo in 'Annie Hall' (which gave an early glimpse into his ability to do "psycho" feasibly) as well. Having said that, not sure how one can take one look at Christopher Walken's face and fail to see that he was born to play utterly certified diabolical wack-jobs.
I think Gene is being way too hard on Roger Moore. Yes, Sean Connery is and will likely always be the best Bond but Moore is still a great Bond. I think Gene exaggerates when he says in past reviews that Moore is "stiff," "wooden" and doesn't take the role "seriously." Yes, here and there Moore does do some of the action scenes with a comedic tone and even borderline winks at the camera so to speak if not outright. However, Moore brought a tremendous charm and suave to the role and had some very memorable action scenes. I also loved his chemistry with many of his Bond girls, especially Barbara Bach from The Spy Who Loved Me and Carole Bouquet in For Your Eyes Only.
Moore was definitely not wooden. He had a charisma and a good screen presence but when it came to do the action, Roger simply came up short. I never truly believed he could handle himself in a fight or action sequence.
@@ricardocantoral7672 he was my favourite as a boy. The tone was never serious though, the gadgets were absurd and he never looked physically capable or doing the things the script said he could. He wasn't helped by some of the direction, remember the snowboarding scene where they play beachboys music over it? His reputation suffered a bit because of the Austin Power films.
fletch is a classic film and Chevy chase is a great comedic actor.haven't seen perfect.don't like James bond films no matter who plays the lead character.
Perfect is hilariously bad- a movie full of stupefingly bad decisions. This was the second or third of Travolta’s really bad script choices of his career
cityofchamps66 A VIEW TO A KILL is no way near the worest Bond film without a doubt Diet Another Day & Quantom Of Shoelace are the worst Bond films. Die Another Day is a total piss take of the Bond Genre & more akin to a direct to video movie or Vin Diesel XXX follow up than a Bond film also the cgi is woefull & has no place in a Bond movie. it also has the stupid invisible car & the stupid Gunbarrel sequence with the bullet firing into the barrel of the shooters gun, I mean seriously uhh!! and there's the constant and overbaring nods to previous Bond adventures. Quantom Of Solace is practically unwatchable. With choppy editing a crappy Bond girl who goes nowhere and A villian that is totally forgetable and has nothing to do. They're both shitfests. But as a Bond fan I would still watch them. But still go for A View To A Kill over the other two I mentioned.
Darth Devoknieval I don't mind Moonraker. Though I know it gets a bad wrap. It has some really stupid double taking pigeon crap in it. But I'd take any Roger Moore Bond over Die Another Day. I recently re-watched The World Is Not Enough & oh my is that a bland bond film.
I watched Fletch recently. Awful. Chase was always overrated, and his phony mannerisms, over the top grins and grimaces. He was a one note player, and just all around awful. Watch it for yourself, I thought it was fair when it came out, but it is awful. Authentic? Serious crime thriller? Oh geez Siskel.
My dad rarely walked out of movies. We left Perfect after 45 minutes. I didn't blame him.
Fletch is funny as hell. One of Chevy Chase's best movies.
Aside from the first Vacation, I can't think of anything better.
