Oh, I'm Picking Out A Thermos For You-I Laughed Until I---W/O

Date of Review:  Sep 8, 2001
The Bottom Line: Watch This Movie And Laugh Until You------
Review: The Jerk starring Steve Martin, Bernadette Peters, Jamie Lee Curtis amongst others is one of the funniest, silliest, stupidest movies I have ever seen. This is one of the few movies that has scenes that made me laugh so hard I cried and nearly wet...

A Funny, Funny, Funny Movie

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: Steve Martin's starring debut is also one of his best. This is a staple for comedy lovers.
Review: Introduction:

Steve Martin's movie debut was a lot like his early stage act: wild, unpredictable and frequently funny!

Plot Overview:

The film opens as Steve Martin is drunk, unshaven and sitting on the street amongst...

Martin's early talent

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 2000
Review: A jerk, as defined by Webster?s Dictionary?, exempting all definitions that deal with movement or chicken seasoning (as there are many) is ?a stupid, foolish, or unconventional person?. (Note: This dictionary is circa 1981 as the only copy I have...

You'll laugh until you're cross-eyed

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: ?
Review: Some movies are pretty random. In many cases, this is a bad thing. In the case of The Jerk, not so much. It s more like the movie follows a meandering path leading the main character back where he started. Such is the story of Navin R. Johnson, who...

Which Quote Do I Use?

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: True comedy is found in the lines and their delivery. This relies on Steve Martin and he delivers wonderfully.
Review: This truly comical classic of the 70's (just barely: 1979) still brings tears to my eyes. Good tears, of course. The kind that come as a result of belly-aching laughter and constant smiling. There aren't many movies that deliver this relatively...

Steve Martin's Funniest Role

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: A comedy classic. Steve Martin at his best. It has family, racial harmony, romance, a cute dog, and motorcycles.
Review: Steve Martin plays the irrepressible Navin Johnson. He was raised by a black family down south. There is a scene where Navin is singing with his all black family and sadly was the only one who couldn't clap on the beat.

On Navin's...

Date of Review:  May 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is just a great, funny film. Definitely worth watching - very stupid and amusing.
Review: I love this movie - my Dad and I watched it a million times when I was a kid. I bought the 26th anniversary DVD as soon as I realized it existed.

The opening scene shows us Steve Martin as a dirty, haggard bum. He tells us I am not a bum I...

I don't need anything.... except this.......

Date of Review:  Jan 10, 2000
Review: This is without a doubt Steve Martin's funniest and very best performance. Steve Martin plays an abandoned child that was raised by a black family. He starts working in a little fair while living in a little trailor box thing. He meets this girl and...

"Stay away from those cans!"

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 1999
Review: It's a little sad to reflect on how many times quotes from 'The Jerk' have crept into my daily conversation. I first saw this film around 1987 when I became an avid Steve Martin fan.

For my money, the early Rob Reiner films of Steve Martin...

Huh.... my story?

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2000
Review: This is one of my all time favourite movies, made back in the late seventies when Steve Martin was the King of Stupid (in the nicest possible way).
The plot is based on him being raised by a black family only to be told on his 18th birthday that...
