5 out of 5 stars Very Funny   August 29, 2008
This is Jack Lemmon's tour de force. The chemistry between He and Sandy Dennis is wonderful. Well written, directed, acted. Plus a score from Quincy Jones, who could ask for more? 5 stars!! *****

4 out of 5 stars LEMMON & DENNIS ARE GREAT IN THIS STRANGE COMEDY!   August 15, 2008

I had seen this film many years ago, so I had an idea of what to expect in this strange comedy film. The premise of a couple Lemmon & Dennis)leaving Ohio and going to New York for Lemmon's job interview is funny, but it can also irritate as we have all had some of these things happen to us and we all know ......it's not funny! Of course, Lemmon can make just about anything funny, so it is a good movie, it really depends on what kind of day you had when you watch it!

The cast is good and the story is well written, but be prepared to watch a couple, have things go wrong on a trip and just keep getting worse......well at least it has a happy ending! :-) It is a comedy! The DVD has an excellent transfer, but no extras.

If you think you've had a nightmare holiday, spare a thought for George and Gwen Kellerman (as played by Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis) in THE OUT-OF-TOWNERS, written by Neil Simon!

George Kellerman (Lemmon) desperate to impress when he gets an important job interview in New York, leaves comfortable Ohio with his wife Gwen (Dennis) in tow, for a weekend of luxury in the big city... Pretty soon, everything goes pear-shaped, as the Kellermans find themselves in the middle of a New York transit strike, and later "submit" to a series of bizarre muggings, cancelled hotel reservations and shady characters. In the midst of the comedic whirlwind are the full-blooded characters of George and Gwen, broke and stranded in the big city, who quickly endear themselves to the audience.

Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis are such a joy to watch in THE OUT-OF-TOWNERS, which has a zesty comedy screenplay by Neil Simon. There's non-stop hilarity in store whenever Jack Lemmon is on the screen, and this movie is no exception. Sandy Dennis is also wonderful here, with her zany deadpan performance as Gwen. If you enjoyed "Barefoot in the Park", you'll adore the original THE OUT-OF-TOWNERS.

(Single-sided, single-layer disc).
