My Blue Heaven Is Available As A Movie Download
Whether or not you're much of a fan of Nora Ephron's romantic comedies, My Blue Heaven is one of those must download movies for anyone who likes great comedies. Lately she's fallen into a habit, with movies like Bewitched, of trying to repeat When Harry Met Sally by simply... Remaking it, more or less. It's always the same old stuff, the same outdated dating jokes that were funnier twenty years ago. But My Blue Heaven shows that, when she wants to be, Nora Ephron can be an incredibly funny writer.
Steve Martin and Rick Moranis star as, respectively, a member of the Italian mafia, and the FBI agent assigned to protect him until he can testify. Martin is shipped to a picturesque small town and, yes, it's just another fish out of water movie, but it's very well done this time, very funny, and when it comes down to it, an old, cliche story is fine so long as it's done properly.
Of course what really matters is... The movie is funny. Steve Martin hits all the right notes, even the jokes that probably didn't read all that great in the script, Moranis and Martin have that perfect comedic instinct that helps salvage mediocre material and really knock good material out of the park. The typical odd couple relationship is lent a lot of extra mileage by two funny performers who know how to make the most of material with potential.
Martin quickly takes over the little town he's been sent to and starts his own thing. He meets a few other protected witnesses, they decide that they're not getting enough from the government, and they start hijacking trucks and forming their own little mini-mafia in their friendly little town. Watching these old goombas take the town over is really delightful, watching Steve Martin talk his way out of trouble is even better.
Even though the movie does get into organized crime, murder and so on, the end result is really a film that is cute, innocent, funny. The violence is never really scary or suspenseful so much as... Well, a shootout provides a fun bonding experience for Martin and Moranis, and another gunfight towards the end of the film provides one of its biggest laughs "I lied, now where was I?"
The movie also draws some great comedy from Martin's incredible ability to juggle women. He has two girlfriends and a wife, and somehow, they never find out about one another. This is funnier and funnier as the film goes on and you start to wonder how he manages to drift in and out of these women's lives without ever drawing any suspicion. Maybe he's just that charming?
The movie has a really great look to it. The whole point of the film is the contrast between Martin's violent, urban upbringing, and the small town friendliness and beauty of his new environs, and the cinematography really does the trick. Martin's new home is really set in a gorgeous land of blue skies and green hills.
It may or may not be one of the greatest films of all time or anything like that, but it's very funny, Martin and Moranis are in top form, and Ephron proves once more that, when she has a fun idea, she can still write a great comedy film, even if she doesn't always feel like it. - 2361
