Mr. Wrong (1996)

Wonderful character development!

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

I wish Ellen made more movies. The talk show is cool but I think that she's wasting her talent. "Mr. Wrong" is a good case in point. Ellen is totally convincing in her role of a woman disappointed by, and still searching for, love. The casting was brilliant. Hope Davis, Bill Pullman, Joan Plowright, Dean Stockwell and Joan Cusack are an awesome ensemble. The premise of the movie is simple and straightforward enough to be believable but broad enough to allow for any number of crazy things to happen. Her character's job as a talk show producer is brilliant because it allows for cameos of all of Ellen's comic colleagues. It is also an old-fashion comedy in the tradition of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad World, and all of the other 60's comedies showcasing stand-up acts like Martin & Lewis, Bob Hope, etc. This movie was a lot of fun and I've seen it quite a few times.

Hello, my name is Pursy and I am 17 years old. I first saw this movie when I was around 10 years old. It was such an enjoyable experience. I love this movie. I think the actors are great in it and they definitely know how to make people laugh. I rented it often and when I finally saw it for sale at a store, I bought it. I watch it to this day and still laugh like I did when I first saw it. Yes, I will admit that it is a bit out there and I can definitely see why most people don't like the movie but when you look past all that and see the movie for what it really is, it's a great movie and it really hurts me to see such negative attitudes and comments about it. If I could thank any two people in this world, I would want to thank Ellen DeGeneres and Bill Pullman for making such a hysterical movie. Thanks You.

The script for this movie was OK, except for the last 15 minutes which were just horrible. I don't find Ellen funny, and her acting is far from diverse, she plays the same character in every project. Her and Bill Pullman were totally unbelievable as a couple. The fact that no one took her seriously when he was clearly stalking her was just asinine. She was such a whiny victim that I didn't feel sorry for her at all, fight back at least! Most of the other actors besides Ellen were pretty good, the script wasn't great, it wasn't very funny. Seems like this either needed to be a pure black comedy or a mainstream audience comedy, it tried to be both and succeeded at neither.

I really liked it and have watched it several times.I thought the cast did an excellent job, especially Cusack with her psychotic Inga character.7/10
