| Rating |  | | Date | June 02, 2005 | | Summary | Swimming With The Best of Them | Content
 | Burt Reynolds allows us to laugh at ourselves by our bargining skills that we have developed with God. Towards the end of the of the movie, Burt discovers that he wants to live, and thus bargins with God to let him live after attempting to drown himself by swimming out to sea. To show his sincerity to God, he dedicates at first 80 percent of his yearly earning and holding to the church. As Burt gets closer to shore and sees that in fact he will make it out alive, he lowers the percentage to a fraction of the original 80 percent earlier promised. The movie starts slow, but finishes with a punch by reminding all of us that we are not so different after all in private. |

| Face it! The first half of this moviwe is not that good. The only real funny moment is provided by veteran Gangster film actor Pat O'brien playing Reynolds's painter obsessed father ("Last time you got up from that chair it was on fire"). But once Reynolds is committed to the loony bin for attempted suicide and he meets Deluise the film really comically takes off like a jet plane. Best scenes are the one where Deluise tries to help Reynolds jump off a high building and the climatic last scene. |
