Memorable performances of satire Nicholson and Randy Quaid. Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) Ashby and Nicholson, November 11, 2005 Reviewer:PolarisDiB "dibness" (Southwest, USA) - See all my reviewsAshby could almost be named one of my favorite directors for Harold and Maude alone. In fact that's the only other movie I've seen of his. Whatever the case, it was fantastic and so of course I was excited when, upon viewing the opening credits to this film, I saw he directed it. Add Jack Nicholson and this was a sure-fire hit for me. Well, not exactly. While it satire is satire pretty well done and has an interesting story, and is also really funny (okay, okay, VERY funny), it doesn't really seem to add anything especially significant to either Ashby's or Nicholson's works. Nicholson is basically himself, the humor isn't particularly in the same vein as Harold and Maude, and Ashby doesn't seem to have improved much as a director, but that can be forgiven as it was immediately proceeding Harold and Maude and wasn't made that far after.
