"Groundhog's Day" is One of the Best Dark Comedies

"Groundhog's Day" is a great film for dark comedy. It has Phil, played by Bill Murray, a weatherman but doing a story on Groundhog Day. He travels to  Pennsylvania to see if the famous Groundhog will see his shadow this year. After his story, things start to turn for the worse. His life keeps repeating the same day over and over. He does not know how to figure out this out, and he tries to figure it out because everyday he falls in love with the same woman, Rita, played by Andie MacDowell. Phil has to figure out this before he loses the love of his life.

This film is great mainly because of Bill Murray. He is an incredible actor that has been around for decades. This is a dark comedy, and he is extremely funny in this film. He really shows that he is one of the best actors of all time, mainly because he can play in dramatic roles and comedic roles. He is the reason why this film is so great. It is a little slow, but as the film progresses we see he is trapped and we want to see what happens. Go see it!

Grade = 82/100 = B-
