'Groundhog Day' | Critics' Picks | The New York Times

[@stork0112]

I think that Groundhog Day is still Bill Murray's best picture to this day!

[@xyPERSON]

I think it's his second best behind the original Ghostbusters.

[@xoticbyrd]

What about bob?

[@justthetruth1]

Livingston Hampton groundhog day, kingpin, stripes and scrooged are all better than ghostbusters.

[@ezzz42]

I love ground hog day. But what about bob takes the cake

[@_Triangularity]

One day, many many years from now, people will celebrate this as the greatest film ever made.

[@cihanyilmazercy]

Definitely. An amazing Movie.

[@mizofan]

and then the same day after

[@ericg4570]

One day, many many years from now, people will celebrate this as the greatest film ever made. Have you ever experienced Deja Vu?

[@johnnyev1]

Rest In Peace Harold Ramis. This was your finest film.

[@michaelthomas4835]

I loved that man, and I didn't even know him.

[@squidge125]

My favourite film of all time. I think even when I saw it aged 14/15 that I knew that the journey to happiness and fufilment portrayed in this movie was really the only one to take. I only hope I can get there one day :)

[@danielajani7283]

It’s been 8 years, hopefully you’re doing well now

[@jago76]

Truly a classic and Murray's best film.

[@ElTuco84]

Andie McDowell limited? She was perfect! She looked and acted like an angel!

[@pleaserewind295]

She's usually the worst part of the movies she's in.

[@Mostrichkugel]

@@pleaserewind295 I am sure you can prove that.

@@Mostrichkugel you made all these videos??? Please, make more. These are a true gems.

[@Mostrichkugel]

@ No, I didn't!

[@noahsark8425]

@@Mostrichkugel why won't you take credit for the videos you clearly made?

[@heartmycrackberry]

Groundhog is one of my favorite movies! I was little when it came out and I would watch it alll the time! Basically every day.

[@NameCallingIsWeak]

A great review of a great movie. Still, he could have avoided calling Andie McDowell "limited".

[@michaelthomas4835]

Agreed.

[@EyeLean5280]

Yeah, that was unnecessary snark.

[@AUPGrade]

Yeeeah, that will never age well.

[@Mostrichkugel]

In fact, that remark was idiotic.

[@NameCallingIsWeak]

@@Mostrichkugel Then why did you make it?

[@Brownyman]

"Groundhog Day" is the finest expression of eudaimonia and Aristotelian philosophy since the works of Thomas Aquinas and Ayn Rand.

[@cihanyilmazercy]

This is so true. God bless you. The Best Comment Ever. I think i love you. :-)

[@EclecticoIconoclasta]

Ayn Rand? WTF. What a way to ruin the Bill Murray vibe

[@mizofan]

right, Rand was not worthy of this

[@mizofan]

it's quite Buddhist

[@gargarcomedy]

The Ethicist Philosophy Show in what sense Aristotelian? Metaphysics or ethics?

[@unappreciatedtreehouse821]

Imagine a life without fear of the unknown because everyday would be the same. "No tomorrow? That would mean there would be no consequences, there would be no hangovers. We could do whatever we wanted!"

[@sensualbunny1]

Who starred with Andy McDowell in Groundhog Day?

[@agroves120]

Great review

[@andythefork]

If you have headphones on and skip to 1m51s it sounds like there's a train in the distance.

[@JohnBonini]

"… played by the 'indescribable' Chris Elliott."

[@TheParanoidAndroid79]

I'd be hard pressed to describe Chris Eliott and his acting style to someone who had not seen him.

[@Canyarion]

Top 10 material.

[@geoffreypiltz271]

I am surprised that no reference was made to Greek myth in the commentary e.g. Sisyphus, Tantalus, Prometheus.

[@IceBloodKing]

@NameCallingIsWeak i think she's a great actress too..

[@TurikoSanShiro222]

there's no reason to call Andy McDowell mediocre and that other Home Alone dude indescribable... She has always been an amazingly underestimated actor. This is sexism.

[@pleaserewind295]

Do you think that's Daniel Stern?

[@Madbandit77]

@@pleaserewind295 Chris Elliot and Daniel Stern slightly look alike. Slightly.

[@00BillyTorontoBill]

Don't drive Angry!

[@TheAndroidBishop]

"...played by the indescribable bill elliott" This is what a critic sleeping on the job looks like

[@ronnierockit4468]

"A somewhat limited actress" I see you Mr Scott

[@geoffreypiltz271]

That's the job of film critics.

[@binklebabe4725]

You insulted Andie, and I'm leaving ...

[@debbiewilson9712]

Wow. Too deep for me...it's just a darn good movie!!!

[@oldschoolfoil2365]

Andrew mc dowell looks russian as i guess murray digs russia he even looks like mark linn baker and andie is belkie, quote when checkov seen winter dark bleak bereft of hope and dont forget the movie stripes

[@EyeLean5280]

Beauty and the Beast for grownups.

[@seriouslyyoujest1771]

It’s Bitcoin’s Day

[@Pining_for_the_fjords]

This is the only Andie McDowell film I can actually stand.

[@mizofan]

Grant should have picked Kristin Scott Thomas in Four Weddings and a Funeral instead

[@MetFansince]

"...a somewhat limited actress..." Gee, A.O., was that really needed? You came off as kind of a putz.

[@AaroInTheKnee]

I think it's a compliment to say that someone in general isn't fantastic but here she's really very good.
