You’ll love Bill Murray at his wise-cracking best in this romantic comedy about a self-centred TV weatherman who finds himself caught in a personal time warp. Suddenly, he’s having the worst day of his life… over and over and over again! With no tomorrow to worry about and plenty of time on his hands, Phil explores some of his fantasies, becomes an expert at all things trivial and pointless, but continually strikes out with the one woman who matters – his producer Rita (Andie MacDowell from FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL).

Review

“Bill Murray does warmth in his most consistently effective post-Stripes comedy, a romantic fantasy about a wacky weatherman forced to relive one strange day over and over again, until he gets it right. Snowed in during a road-trip expedition to watch the famous groundhog encounter his shadow, Murray falls into a time warp that is never explained but pays off so richly that it doesn't need to be. The elaborate loop-the-loop plot structure cooked up by screenwriter Danny Rubin is crystal-clear every step of the way, but it's Murray's world-class reactive timing that makes the jokes explode, and we end up looking forward to each new variation. He squeezes all the available juice out of every scene. Without forcing the issue, he makes us understand why this fly-away personality responds so intensely to the radiant sanity of the TV producer played by Andie MacDowell. The blissfully clueless Chris Elliott (Cabin Boy) is Murray's nudnik cameraman.” –David Chute
