One mishap after another conspires to keep these robbers from reaching freedom.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I love movies that go from bad to worse, and this is a fun one. It's also classic Bill Murray.

Quick Change was an awesome movie. Very funny and the bank robbery scene at the beginning is actually good enough to be in a great heist movie. I loved this one!

"Quick Change" has a lot going for it. A comedy-crime-romance flick, it has lots of fresh, crisp lines that Bill Murray turns into many laughs. Randy Quaid's over-the-top outbursts of zaniness add more laughs. Then, several more characters add twists of humor throughout. Jason Robards appeared to be having fun making this film, and his remarks and wit brought smiles and laughter. As the cab driver, Tony Shalhoub, had some of the very funniest scenes. This hilarious romp has sight gags, great one-liners, zaniness and humor throughout. But the most poignant humor, I think, is in the spoofs. The script, with Murray at the helm, pretty much jabs at every aspect of life in the Big Apple. Traffic, police, organized crime, taxi service, workers, neighborhoods, and nationalities all get the poking-fun treatment. But for the profanity and coarse language in places, "Quick Change" might be a fun film for the whole family. This is a comedy – not a real-life crime and police drama. So, the few off-color lines seemed out of place or not to belong. Some script tweaking to replace those could have made the film even funnier. That would have led me to rate it a notch higher.

Dressed as a clown, "laughing on the inside" Bill Murray (as Grimm) goes to rob a New York City bank. Correctly anticipating the police are gathering outside, Mr. Murray takes the bank staff and customers hostage. Threatening their lives, he makes demands. Murray hopes to leave the country with sexy Geena Davis (as Phyllis), goofy Randy Quaid (as Loomis), and a million dollars. Police chief Jason Robards (as Rotzinger) wants to stop them. The opening heist is engaging, but it gets tedious. Possibly aiming for satire, this loses balance, though there are a few chuckles from the New Yorkers encountered.*** Quick Change (7/13/90) Howard Franklin, Bill Murray ~ Bill Murray, Geena Davis, Randy Quaid, Jason Robards
