Wonderful Movie
... View MoreIt is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreI didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
... View MoreCoupe de Ville is on HBO Family this month. Good movie about these three brothers' and their dad's relationship, or any family relationships, fraught with mischief, hijinks, and adventure. Enjoyed it, even though it may now seem dated, the movie had it's great moments. Consider it timeless, or consider it an entertaining coming-of-age period piece from the 1980s... I found it very under-rated, well worth seeing, and I agree, it could be worth watching again. The situations, conflicts, and their solutions were not only very entertaining, but ultimately satisfying, somehow. It has some qualities that reminded me of dynamic relationship films like Breaking Away or Stand by Me.8/10
... View MoreA touching story between three brothers. The roles are nicely cast, (I especially enjoy seeing Daniel Stern). Being a brother myself, I could relate to some of the situations they got themselves in, and the emotion they felt between each other. A gem of its own, Coupe De Ville, should be seen by more people. It's brilliance is warming and Alan Arkin ties the whole thing together. His performance as the straightforward, loving father is charming.Plus, the soundtrack is nostalgic! The whole part about the song Louie, Louie is classic.Recommended for fans of Daniel Stern and Alan Arkin.
... View MoreWe can go the moon and we can even clone but it just seems impossible to get this GREAT MOVIE on DVD. I only saw it once and I was hooked on the movie Coupe de Ville. It was fun to watch, acting was great, moral of the story great. Why can't Universal Pictures transfer it to DVD or Morgan Creek Productions transfer it to DVD. A great movie for all generations to sit down and watch and have a great time doing that.I love Alan Arkin as the father. Do the world of movie buffs a favor please transfer this movie to DVD and make the world a happier place at least for 90 minutes.Thanks. Martha
... View MoreThis film is an absolute classic and it is a crime that it is not available on DVD.There must be something us film lovers can do to rectify this injustice.This film is hysterical, moving and poignant all rolled into one which is a rarity in itself.For me, Patrick Dempsey and Daniel Stern steal the show as the feuding brothers who constantly clash with great hilarity.Sterns performance had me in tears of laughter, especially in his moments of rage.A great cast, a great script and an extremely well hidden master piece which does not get the credit it deserves.I can not really say any more than that!!
