Their late father wanted Ernie and Lars to share his pocket string, binding them together, but the mouse ends up eating it partway into the movie. Then at the end of the movie, the Mouse causes cheese to go into the string machine, combining both brothers' passions and truly uniting them to work together in harmony for the first time. The mouse BECAME the pocket string.

Maybe this was the origin story of the Ratcatcher... that's what Christopher Walken became after this encounter.

Personally, I like this movie. The comedy is intended for all age groups so you get some variety. The acting and the characters are pretty good for a one off comedy film. You get invested in the struggle that the brothers go through and seeing them get on top at the end, makes you smile even though it makes no sense. The whole movie feels like a chaotic mess, because that's what it is going for. The brothers are trying all they can to keep their lives from crumbling apart. It feels like a darker, more mean spirited Home Alone movie.

Mousehunt: A Dark Slapstick Comedy, basically Terry Gilliam meets Laurel and Hardy.

As much as I love this film as a kid growing up and found it hilarious. My memory on parts of the film have come and gone. I remember most of this whole film but my memory on possibly a few things have slipped my mind but I'm surprised I still remember most of this film after all these years when I thought I'd forget something. But I think what made me laugh the hardest was the look on Oz's face when he pulled out a metal hammer from a drawer to use on the mouse and how he reacted as he was running around with it, screaming like he went nuts. But I'm laughing myself out of my seat to when you mimic Nathan Lane's voice during the mouse traps scene or when you said "Poop is a physical fart" I laughed when you made the Home Alone joke and how the hole in the floor formed so fast.

Missed joke opportunity: The guy at the cat shelter was played by Ernie Sabella, who did the voice of Pumba. Timon and Pumba reunited, sort of.

Okay I’ll be honest this film is an extreme guilty pleasure for me in terms of comedies I don’t watch it often but when I do it’s hilarious

I saw Doug Walker at a costume store in Chicago yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “Huh? Huh? Huh?” and pointing a prop gun in my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him screech as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen wigs in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the wigs and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any plot holes,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a legitimate critical term. After she scanned each wig and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by screaming "A BAT CREDIT CARD" really loudly.

Could have just been an old cat they had to put to sleep. Sad, but necessary thing to do to avoid them suffering from problems in their old age. Why you'd BRING THE KID WITH YOU is up for debate.

Thanks for reviewing this one, Doug! For years, I've always wondered what to make of this flick. Even after watching this, I still don't! But, it's good to know I'm not alone. It's worth a watch I think, but it's so hard to pin down a theme or motif. Definitely has good moments, but it needed so much more Walken. He was brilliant, as always. Great review, thank you so much! (When I watch this again, I'll keep my ears open for Buster purrs!)

The ending was odd as hell to me. Throughout this whole movie this mouse has been putting their lives through living hell because their remodeling destroyed its home, they sent a bloodthirsty cat after it, then Christopher Walken, nailed it with an orange ball and mailed it to Fidel Castro... and in the end it saved their family business and kept them from being destitute? It made more sense when we were led to believe that it intended to finish the job in the last few minutes!

15:50 "Ok Shit! You made the tub work! I'm so sorry, I was looking at the four year plan and not your eight year plan." That was one of the funniest lines you've had all year, Doug... JFC my sides.

The film was originally intended to simply take place in The Present Day. When Gore Verbinski decided to go for a Retro Universe aesthetic, it shocked the studio executives, who had, of course, just wanted a Home Alone clone.

9:43 I am so glad they released the Snyder cut of the Tom and Jerry movie. Dude you predicted the HBO Max leaks!!

I love how weird this movie is! One of my favorite recurring jokes is the painting of main characters father. I don't think it looks the same in any scene it shows up in, it just keeps changing throughout the movie! A simple joke but pretty fun detail.

My dad loved slapstick in anything, so fond memories are of him laughing loudly at moments in this. He replayed the whimper conversation like 5 times and was wheezing. William Hickey was only 70 when he died?! Every movie i saw him in i thought he was 105. I mean, rest his soul.

As the older sibling our movies as a family were limited the restrictions of the youngest in the home.

probably because it feels too real and raw. like it's actually genuine but the context of whatever made that little girl cry and scream isn't what's shown in the movie. the thought of adults purposely making that girl so upset to get that shot is probably why it's so discomforting. either that or mommy issues.

It's so nice to hear your intake on MouseHunt. Having grown up with the movie, I'm leaning more towards the forgiving side. There may have been some mean-spirited jokes that didn't work for me - like the girl-dragging scene at the pound - but the rest of the mean-spirited humor, plus the slapstick in general, they still get me every time. I'm just glad to hear that for every problem you had with the movie, there were things that tickled your funny bone, too. :) I'm kind of on the same boat myself.

I remembered seeing this in theaters when I was in summer camp and this movie reminds me of home alone and I gotta say Nathan Lane that voiced Timon from the lion King and Lee Evans made me laugh and the mouse reminded me of Macaulay Culkin.

For some odd reason I remember having fond memories of this movie as a kid. Lets see.

I loved the Timeless Aesthetic in some late 1980s and early to mid 1990s Kids/family films where the setting and Technology is kinda 90s but has Elements of 1940s America like Beetlejuice,Batman 89 and Batman Returns, Richie Rich, Babe, Rocketman ,Matilda, The Borrowers, Edward Scisor hands, Mousehunt , Batman The Animated Series and Superman TAS. other films did it too.

The waving at the ladies with his tie at 13:23 was a direct Oliver Hardy reference, he did that all the time
