Customer Rating: 
Summary: The 'Burbs
Comment: Very good comedy by Tom Hanks. Suspicions arise when strange neighbors move in from Europe. When neighbors decide to take matters into their own hands based on their assumptions, things quickly get out of hand.
Very good family Halloween movie.

Summary: Great Movie
Comment: This has got to be one of my favorite movies. It has a bit of comedy and a little scare here and there but all in all a wonderful movie. I watch it evey chance I get.

Summary: When Neighborhoods Fight Back
Comment: This is a superbly farcical dark comedy. There are, surprisingly, many layers of subtle humor in this otherwise madcap comedy. It may take a number of times watching this movie before you begin to see some of the more subtle jokes that often happen in the background.
As always, Tom Hanks is great, but the supporting cast does an equally superb job in their respective roles: the former soldier across the street; the childish, simplistic neighbor who drags the world down to his level; the longsuffering wife; the stoner teen. They just culminate in a cast that makes this movie eminently watchable.
This one is a great movie for a Friday the 13th party if you want a semi-dark movie that is still funny.

Summary: Beyond strange.
Comment: The 'Burbs is one of the strangest films starring Tom Hanks. Parts of this dark comedy are good and funny but mostly this film is a mess. Hanks saves this film and Carrie Fisher is pretty good as well but the plot is bizzarre. I won't give away too much but expect a quirky tale, I think I like Corey Feldman, it's a sick 1980s crush, give The 'Burbs a viewing soon.
