Final Review Score
9.0
/ 10
Amazing
Bill Murray plays Bob Wiley, an anxious patient whose attachment to his new psychiatrist turns an idyllic family vacation into a relentless comic ordeal. The film builds its humor around Bob’s earnest neediness and his doctor’s increasingly desperate attempts to escape him.
Performances and Direction
Frank Oz gives Murray and Richard Dreyfuss room to develop a memorably antagonistic double act. Murray finds unexpected sweetness beneath Bob’s disruptive behavior, while Dreyfuss’s escalating frustration supplies much of the film’s frantic energy. The humor can be broad and uncomfortable, but the two leads make their clash consistently watchable.
The Final Verdict
What About Bob? is an energetic character comedy driven by Murray’s disarming performance and his combustible chemistry with Dreyfuss.
