I love this movie so much

Powerful

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

The only thing this really has in common with the far better original, is the title. Two con's break out and invite themselves into a families lives. The two leads really can't do comedy (or it could be the writing since DeNiro was hysterical in the far superior Midnight Run). This is simply OK.

Duh! - If you can just imagine Robert De Niro and Sean Penn (with matching hairdos, no less) being totally confined to have to work with a lame script and having to ultimately play a couple of really lunk-headed convicts on the run, then I think you get a fairly clear picture of what this film's got to offer when it comes to entertainment value.Set in the 1930s - Ned and Jim (2 of the most idiotic convicts you're ever gonna meet) inadvertently get the chance to escape from prison, and then find that once on the outside their only saving grace is to pose as priests visiting a monastery near the Canadian border.De Niro, who also served as Executive Producer for this goofy misfire, mugs his way through the story like you've never seen him mug before.We're No Angels also stars Demi Moore, who plays Molly, a piece of white-trash with a heart of gold (natch), who helps our 2 dimwits out of a fix and also provides the sappy love-interest for convict Jim.Personally, I think that there should be some kinda law protecting viewers from comedy as bad as this one. Yeah. It really is a bloody crime wasting one's time watching junk as moronic as this piece of pure movie-rubbish.

I really interested by watching it, it is a very good movie.

In all respects; casting, acting, direction, production and screen writing, We're No Angels is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Not a frame of film is wasted as the sometimes-humorous tension is maintained throughout.The movie has a relentless, if-subdued tension. I was on the edge of my seat, hoping that Penn and DeNiro make-good their escape to Canada, while at the same time, noticing the relaxed, comfortable overall feel of the movie. We honestly like the two main characters, and this is one of the main reasons the film is so compelling. DeNiro's acting is perhaps the best I have ever seen from him. His totally-failed attempts at acting "priest-like" are hilarious, especially as he trades barbs with Demi Moore's irate character.Bruno Kirby is wonderful. John C. Reilly is great. Hoyt Axton is excellent. The plot never loses steam for a second, and we honestly care about the two convicted protagonists. If you like movies with a moral underpinning, that at-once candidly expose the frailty of the human spirit, you will love We're No Angels. At the end of the movie, we are rewarded for our faith in DeNiro's and Penn's characters, for they risk all for a child they have been entrusted with. The screen writing and direction of this movie are exemplary. No mediocre dialogue and no disjointed scenes. Every moment re-inforces the tension and overall effectiveness of script. The ending is unexpected and superb. Congratulations to the director, producer, writer, Penn, DeNiro and all involved.
