RV is just a cookie-cutter family comedy. If you went into it expecting anything more, you're setting yourself up for disappointment.

I think Robin Williams is quite brilliant in the many movies where he shines. I too think it's a bit puzzling or perhaps sad that he now seems to only do simple comedies. He's got a real talent for drama .. or used to have anyways!

My second time watching this one, and I still think it's one of the best products of British TV. Very complex and fascinating film that goes out of its way to challenge virtually every social stereotype in urban, Thatcherite Britain. Pretty funny in places too. Great stuff then. |

Still watching Fellini movies...
Yesterday Prova d'orchestra (1978) ^Very funny. Kind of a reality-tv show, as it's about a TV network coming to record an orchestra practising. Not much of a story, even though there's a lot of action in there. Still, very fulfilling, and great music by Nino Rota, as usual. Today: La città delle donne (1980) ^I have such a huge crush on Mastroianni ever since I watched Otto e mezzo (8½) ... Anyway, with another Epic by Fellini, and for the third time with Marcello Mastroianni, personifying his alter-ego in this ocean of male-eating females. Watching this one, less than a week after watching Otto e mezzo, I can easily say: "this is a sequel to 8½". Or just, another episode of Fellini's autobiography. I don't want to talk about it, as I'll just be building up your expectations, and giving you spoiler. I will simply say, I loved it.
