What might have been a one-note family comedy becomes something more thanks to the comic brilliance of costars Nathan Lane and Lee Evans, as well as the distinctive, dark-fable look given the film by a little-known director named Gore Verbinksi. (Could he be the next Tim Burton?) Lane and Evans play idiotic brothers who inherit a house and all but destroy it in pursuit of one small, pesky mouse. The guys are always the butt of the sight gags--most of which are very funny--but their considerable powers as slapstick artists are also at play. The climactic scene at an auction was the funniest scene in any American movie in 1997, the year of Mouse Hunt's release. --Tom Keogh

Extremely funny and addictive to watch (2007-01-30)  I've alway been a Nathan Lane fan, but when I purchased this movie for my 3 and 9 year old daughters, I never imagined it would become one of my all time favorite films.The whole movie starts by building each character so that you know the type of person each is, before the two are bound together as brothers to sell "The missing Larue". Nathan Lane and Lee Evans steel the show with their acting and slap stick comedy. I've never seen such a perfect mix of on screen personalities. These two act as intelligent, but lacking any common sense brothers who try to sell an inherited house. The house is worth millions, but the brothers get greedy and decide to auction the house. Well in waiting for the auction, the two are introduced to a house resident, the mouse. From that point on, these two keep you laughing till the end of the movie with their idiotic schemes to "kill the mouse". I've watched the movie with the kids probably a dozen times over the past year. It's a classic that should be in everyone's collection.One note, there are some slip-up's by the actors. Several times a few cuss words that your kids may not catch slip through.If you don't buy this one (or rent it), you are missing out on an all time, timeless classic.
Just a wonderfull movie (2004-10-31) I saw the movie again last night and wow!!!!! i was laughing all the time, what a funny movie, well done. Highly Recommend !!!!!!!!
Man vs Mouse (2004-04-22) Last week, thanks once again to the wonderful Patio theater located on Irving Park at Austin, I caught a delightful fantasy film. It was the Dreamworks production Mouse Hunt. Two brothers inherit the family string business (Smuntz String) and a run-down old house. Neither is worth anything. Or so it seems at first. The house was designed by an eccentric architect named LaRue and was believed to be only a rumor. Suddenly the house is worth millions. Instead of selling outright, the brothers decide to hold an auction to get a better price. But to reach that point they need to do some restoration and get rid of a very determined mouse. There are then some scenes of the brothers trying to outwit a mouse that could outwit Einstein. Finally they think they have sent the mouse to Castro and the auction begins. As the price reaches unheard of levels the mouse returns. The brothers are so distraught that they bring about their own ruin and destroy the house. Having nowhere else to go they return to the old string factory. The mouse follows. Once in the factory the mouse shows some more of its intelligence by starting up the factory line and adding Gouda to the mix. The result is a new form of string cheese that becomes the rage with the mouse hired on as head taster. This movie is truly hilarious. The mouse is great. I believe the mouse is near immortal as well as a genius. I believe this because there is a tendency for owners of the LaRue house to be found locked in a trunk in the attic. We know for a fact that the mouse defeated Christopher Walken (playing the strangest exterminator you have ever seen) and managed to get him from in front of the house into a trunk in the attic. It is even possible that the mouse was responsible for the architect going mad. Whatever the case, this movie is really worth seeing. If you can not find it in a second-run theater, look for it when it comes out on video.
