Personally, I thought that Hudson Hawk was one of the funniest movies that I've ever seen, a sheer nonsensical movie of the Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Marx Brothers type of films.
It's also about the only time that I've been able to stand Sandra Berhard, who plays Minerva Mayflower. In this role, she fits the mold of the character perfectly. Richard E. Grant, as her power-mad husband Darwin Mayflower, is probably better known for his portrayal of the Scarlet Pimpernel on A&E, but he also does a hysterically funny over-the-top villain. James Coburn spoofs himself (going back to the "Our Man Flint" spy movies) as the CIA agent leading a pack of "new kids on the block" code-named after candy bars.
I don't care what anyone says ... much as I enjoyed the animated roto-scoped version of "Lord of the Rings", the roto-scoped animated "Wizards", and all of my Three Stooges, Marx Brothers, Abbott and Costello, and Laurel and Hardy movies, "Hudson Hawk" is a movie that I re-watch at least once a month.
You and my wife - she loves that movie. Personally - and don't take this as an attack on you - I thought that it sucked s*** faster than a shop vac in a septic tank.
On the other hand, I do like Bruce, and I'm more than happy to give him credit for the good movies he's made - "Unbreakable", "Sixth Sense", "12 Monkeys", "Pulp Fiction", and so forth. If we ever happen to stop by your place, by all means pull out "Hudson Hawk" - you'll make my wife happy, and you two can watch it while I go and kill myself ;)
