Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

kariann-marti I love movies that go from bad to worse, and this is a fun one. It's also classic Bill Murray.
tiagoabreu2007 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!
utgard14 Three bank robbers pull off a seemingly perfect heist but their getaway is a comedy of errors as the trio struggles to make it out of New York City through one obstacle after another. This is one of the most underrated comedies of the '90s. It reminded me of my first experience in NYC. I got lost and freaked out. If you ever saw the Simpsons episode where Homer feared the city because he had a bad first visit there, that's pretty much how I remembered my first visit to the Big Apple. So during this movie when they get lost and have trouble finding someone to give them directions or they see the bizarre jousting match or the cabby who speaks no English, it speaks to me personally because of my experience. Obviously I don't expect everyone else to come to the movie with something similar to that, but I think it's still a hilarious film that you can enjoy on merit alone. The entire cast is perfect, with Bill Murray giving one of the best deadpan performances you'll ever see. It's a must-see for fans of Murray, Quaid, and Davis. Definitely recommended.
AaronCapenBanner Bill Murray both stars and co-directs(along with Howard Franklin) this droll comedy that sees Murray play a non-violent bank Robber(dressed as a clown) named Grimm, who, along with his two accomplices Loomis(played by Randy Quaid) and Phyllis(played by Geena Davis) pull off a successful heist, but find that they can't leave the city and get to the Airport, as all kinds of problems and obstacles are thrown in their way, and they end up involved with a real gangster(played by Kurtwood Smith). Meanwhile, the Police Chief(played by Jason Robards) does his best to track down the clown... Morally dubious at first(they did rob a bank after all!), this redeems itself by making the three leads' desperation to escape the madness of New York quite endearing, with many funny scenes and ideas, and the three robbers(especially Grimm) end up as crime-fighters by the end!
