Anyone like this movie? It's just so unrealistic. Someone just couldn't trick someone like that.

It's tied with Dead Poets for my favorite Robin Williams movie. My favorite scene is where she is peeing standing up.

I love it. It's supposed to be unrealistic. It's a comedy.

I think it's his funniest film.

My favourite RW film is GARP.

Doubtfire is my second favourite of Williams' movies. The top of my list would be Birdcage. RV would be third.

Slightly off-topic or meta, I know, but may I say that after reading through these comments so far...

I haven't watched Birdcage for a good few years, you've inspired me to go and find a torrent. Will watch that tomorrow, thanks dude.

Believe it or not I still have Birdcage and Doubtfire on VHS cassettes. My RV is non-BluRay DVD.
Just don't forget to take your Pirin tablets pryor to searching for it.

I can't decide between Birdcage and Mrs. Doubtfire as to which is my favorite Robin Williams film. I think Birdcage is funnier. But Mrs. Doubtfire came out when I was a kid, so I sort of have a child's perspective on it. I guess I'm emotionally attached to it, so even though I don't think it's quite as funny or clever on an adult level, it's probably my favorite.

It's a pretty funny movie.

I agree that it's a ridiculous idea. That wouldn't ruin it for me though if at least the movie itself was funny, but to me at least, it doesn't even have that going for it.
I was given it as a VHS tape when I was a teen, and I was very disappointed.
But then again, I'm no fan of the main actor. I haven't liked a single movie I've seen him in. Not my thing.
