Movies starring Billy Crystal

Enola Gay: The Men, the Mission, the Atomic Bomb (1980)

156 mins     Adventure , Drama, TV Movie      

But here is the thing, I am no expert on WWII or the Enola Gay so have to say right away I have no idea how much fact and fiction there is going on in "Enola Gay: The Men, the Mission, the Atomic Bomb". Taking a guess I would...

The Princess Bride (1987)

98 mins     Adventure , Comedy, Family      

In many ways I can see what director Rob Reiner was trying to do with "The Princess Bride", he wants it to be a movie which draws on elements of swashbuckling and fairytale but then playing them more for laughs than pure exci...

Throw Momma from the Train (1987)

88 mins     Comedy, Crime, Thriller      

Firstly you have Billy Crystal talking 100 words a minute and acting neurotic, secondly you have Danny DeVito doing quirky and harassed, and thirdly you have Anne Ramsey being a shrew. All are very great at doing these things...

City Slickers 2: The Legend of Curly's Gold (1994)

116 mins     Adventure , Comedy, Western      

I have a feeling that the guys behind "City Slickers" must have been feeling seriously sick after their little western comedy about mid life crisis ended up becoming hugely popular especially seeing they killed off the charac...

Forget Paris (1995)

"Forget Paris" starring Billy Crystal and Debra Winger tries in part to emulate the success of the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" with it's adult orientated romantic comedy although taking on a slightly different tale. But then...

Analyze This (1999)

103 mins     Comedy, Crime      

"Analyze This" has a lot of good things going for it, the comedy of a mob boss suffering panic attacks is amusing, the casting or Billy Crystal as a shrink is spot on and the humour from situations rather than set piece gags ...

America's Sweethearts (2001)

102 mins     Comedy, Romance      

It would be fair to say that when it comes to most modern romantic comedies, the words unoriginal and predictable tend to come to mind. But "America's Sweethearts" is different because whilst it's a romantic comedy it's also ...

There are animations for children, there are animations for family and then there is that small group which not only appeal to children and their parents but also grown ups who don't have children. "Monsters, Inc." is one of ...

Howl's Moving Castle (2004)

115 mins     Adventure , Animation, Fantasy      

To be honest I am not a huge fan of modern animated films, especially those which come under the Manga banner, as the ones I had seen had been confusing and boring. So when a young friend enthused so much about "Howl's Moving...
