LaserDisc Movie Review:
This cheerful holiday comedy, a surprise box office smash, featured a generous dollop of raunchy, crude humor and was greatly elevated by the presence of masterful performers in the lead roles. Jack Lemmon is John Gustafson, an ice-fishing Minnesota native who has been feuding with his neighbor and former best friend Max Goldman (Walter Matthau) for decades. The battle of wills between John and Max is characterized by crude name calling and harmless practical jokes. Max is unaware that John is having serious problems, chiefly that his daughter Melanie (Daryl Hannah) is experiencing marital woes and that his house is about to be confiscated by an officious IRS agent (Buck Henry). When it seems that John and Max may finally put aside their childish rivalry, however, sexy new neighbor Ariel (Ann-Margret) arrives and dates both men, pitting them against each other more fiercely than ever before. Despite their mutual loathing, the death of a friend, John's problems, and a budding romance between Max's son Jacob (Kevin Pollak) and Melanie may force the two old friends to reconcile. --- Karl Williams

A pair of veteran movie stars inhabits their roles with well-worn comfort in this lowbrow but good-natured comedy. The thought of venerable thespians such as Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau inhabiting a sex-obsessed, toilet-humored gross-out comedy should be enough to make film buffs quake with fevered angst, but richly thought out characters and rapid-fire gags add up to an entertaining if often slight experience. When either of the stars or supporting player Burgess Meredith is center stage, it's easy to forget how thin and obnoxious this material really is; the proceedings just feel delightfully naughty. When other cast members such as Daryl Hannah or Kevin Pollak briefly take over, the energy and interest take a kamikaze-style nosedive. Fortunately, there's nary a moment when Lemmon and Matthau aren't visible, so that even through the boring subplots and the thick, sticky coat of sitcom shellack applied by director Donald Petrie, the stars keep shining through. Grumpy Old Men is certainly no award winner, but it's a solid hit guaranteed to generate a few guilty-pleasure moments. --- Karl Williams
