A Fish called Wanda - 5

A caper comedy staring half of Monty Python (Michael Palin and John Cleese) Kevin Kline and Jamie Lee Curtis. It comes down to everyone trying to outwit there fellow thieves in order to gain all the loot for themselves. In the mean time a lot of crazy and hilarious things happen. Curtis plays the love interest of all of the other characters. Cleese plays a bored lawyer who inadvertently gets caught up in all the shenanigans. You stop carrying about the plot early in the film and just let the jokes and laughs carry the film. The acting is well done, and seeing an incompetent assassin is just hilarious.
