Ground Hog Day is easily one of those cult movies. It has become a family tradition for my daughter and me to Facetime, synchronize our copies of Ground Hog Day, and watch it "together" every Ground Hog Day, despite being thousands of miles apart. It's funny and entertaining no matter how many times you view it annually. Its moral message is timeless. We all have a bit of the main character's traits in us. The main character is a narcissistic weatherman who is gradually transformed into an understanding and thoughtful person on a journey of transformation by reliving Ground Hog Day, trapped in Punxsutawney PA until his transformation is complete and he is a better man for it. Not unlike the Ground Hog Phil, he emerges from his "underground mental attitude" into the light of understanding and compassion for his fellowman after seeing the shadow of his former self. it's a great movie.

It's a film about a narcissistic weatherman who goes to a small town to report on Groundhog Day. By some weird twist of events, he strangely keeps on waking up on Ground Hog day with hilarious things happening to him. In the end, he realizes that doing good not only made people like him, but also made him a better person. A great film fast becoming a classic. A must-see film to watch with family and friends.

Groundhog Day starring BILL MURRAY & ANDIE McDOWELL is Tremendous!! What a great film. Not only is it Hysterically Funny, but the Story is one like no other. It's a Fantasy, or is it? Can you really live the same day OVER & OVER again, till you get it right!? In some ways, I guess this is EXACTLY what we are ALL doing! When you see this possibility laid out in front of you, you have to search your heart & soul as to what YOUR intentions and true desires are in life, and if they really hold water, or if you are living inside of yourself, for your own selfish gain. Well selfish gain does not work in Groundhog Day, where TV Weatherman Phil Connors learns the Hard Way what it takes to truly Live and experience Real Love in his previously and otherwise shallow & self-centered life. He finally finds that it takes self-sacrifice rather than self-indulgence, and caring about others first, that brings true joy and gets you what you want, and really need. Chris Elliot also does a great job in the film, and plays a funny supporting role, and the Character of NED RYERSON, and old Classmate of PHIL's is super funny! Set in Punxsutawney, PA., this film gives a real "down-home small-town" feeling, and scence after scene of things you will never expect, catch you off-guard and either laughing you butt off, or being amazed. What would you do if you woke up to find out that everyday was Groundhod Day, and you were living the Same Day over and over again? And even if you killed yourself, you still woke up in the same place?! How would you get out? Bill Murray and Andie McDowell show is that "Love is the Answer" and the way out, in this very Funny film. If you haven't seen it yet, it is well worth your time.Read full review
