Very funny fish-out-of-water flick and, Oscar notwithstanding, generally underrated.

You might not remember much about My Cousin Vinny an hour later, but the cast makes the jokes (even the bad ones) go down easy.

Top CriticThis is a film that gets better as it goes along, but not enough better to make much of a difference.

Joe Pesci is a total screen pleasure. He grabs whatever comes his way -- from GoodFellas to Home Alone

Top CriticBoth Pesci and Tomei create good chemistry and are at the top of their form.

There's a lot of wasted effort here trying to distract us from what we know good and well is going to happen. Nevertheless, it's time pleasantly spent.
01/01/00
A likeable comedy that delivers at least most of the goods.

Weighed down by a dull setup featuring Ralph 'Karate Kid' Macchio, the movie gets a much-needed charge from Pesci, a bundle of bandy-legged impudence as Macchio's lawyer cousin, Vincent Gambini.

Top CriticIt's the kind of movie home video was invented for: Not worth the trip to the theater, but slam it into the VCR and you get your rental's worth.
