A Fish Called Wanda Ratings & Reviews
- Reuben20 December 2025I was laughing the whole way through, great English comedy.
- dj98d11 February 2026One of the best movies I’ve ever seen.
- Jesse Newton22 November 2025Very good cast, very funny, a solid heist movie. Only complaint is that the pacing was uneven.
- Em4 November 2025A brilliantly chaotic mix of wit, greed, and absurdity—its clever humor and eccentric characters make it timelessly hilarious.
- Graham Chapman19 October 2025Boy, has this film aged... the film was odd, moved at a very slow pace, and had weird gaps when the actors were talking, as if they were trying to remember what they had to say.... the film was like wading through treacle at times, and the comedy seems "forced"... Sad to say it was a "watch first then forget" type of movie....
- Marty Fried29 July 2025Funny the first viewing, and again the second, Still funny the third time. In fact, it might get better each time
- mickerdoo17 July 2025Really funny. I was outright laughing at multiple parts. Kline as Otto was the best character but Ken had the best gag.
