What ruins the fun is the prattling need for structure outside the central rivalry

While it won't come close to my top 10 best list for 1993, it will be right up there among the pictures that I had the most fun watching.

The movie is too pat and practiced to really be convincing, and the progress of Ariel's relationships with the two grumps seems dictated mostly by the needs of the screenplay.

...sort of a one-note picture, but luckily that one note is often pretty humorous.

A funny, often hilarious, film that proves that a story doesn't need to be completely new just as long as there's a spin on it to make it different.

the real reason this movie works is the fantastic, decades-honed chemistry of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau

Mediocre, regrettably.

Irresistible...the prime hams and real-life friends share comic timing that can only come from years of experience. [Blu-ray]

Just don't expect their bickering to be on the level of Neil Simon, and you won't be disappointed.

If you poke through Grumpy's cheap sentimentality, you'll find a worthy picture somewhere.

Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon are awfully good at this sort of thing.

So-so comedy with insults, sexual humor. No kid appeal.
