An apex odd-couple comedy powered by Falk's dry delivery, with just the right arch of the eyebrow.
July 8, 2020 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… -
Peter Falk and Alan Arkin make The In-Laws an extremely funny movie.
September 20, 2019 | Full Review… -
A simpleminded variation on the well-worn Oscar and Felix routine.
July 19, 2019 | Full Review… -
Arkin's deadpan tone is a perfect fit for the ever-so-slightly unhinged quality that Falk brings with him.

A feat of casting genius; Hiller knew to let Peter Falk and Alan Arkin do their thing with as little interference as possible
July 22, 2016 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review… -
A minor comedy classic, this one has it all, including a clever premise, a witty script, two beautifully matched lead actors in Peter Falk and Alan Arkin, and a supporting performer who almost makes off with the picture like a bandit in the night.

Feb 07, 2012A very funny movie. The plot is predictable and familiar today, but if you look past that, the movie is enjoyable, and it has a pretty good cast too, I liked it.Aj V Super Reviewer
