Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Mike Myers's first feature role without his Wayne's World wig is a performance at odds with the best interests of the movie. Myers plays a single guy who always manages to find something seriously wrong with each of his girlfriends. His new love (Nancy Travis), a butcher, may be the perfect woman, except for one thing: she might be a 'black-widow' killer who prefers dispatching husbands with a sharp instrument. Robbie Fox's original script has a fine shape and strong, black-comedy material within it. But Myers creates unnecessary dissonance by playing a variety of characters (including an irascible Scotsman like the one he often played on Saturday Night Live) and accenting his skills as an improvisational comic (such as impersonating the soothing cadences of a massage therapist). It's not that Myers isn't funny doing all that, but it has nothing to do with the movie. Directed by Thomas Schlamme (Miss Firecracker). --Tom Keogh

Rating: - So I Married an Axe Murderer
This movie came out around the same time as the Wayne's World so it slipped under the radar screen. If you like Mike Myers' movies you will like this one. It has a good supporting cast and a not bad story line. It has made the rounds on premium cable channels and I'm glad to say is now part of my library.
Rating: - I care for "Apple Jacks" a great deal

Myers plays Charlie Mackenzie, a San Francisco poet, and he also plays his own father, Stuart Mackenzie, an abrasive Scotsman. The Scotsman character is one that he cooked up for Saturday Night Live, but while it didn't quite work out for SIMAAM (So I Married an Axe Murderer) it led ... Read More

Rating: - Top 5 Comedy
This is one of the funniest movies of all time. Mike Myers best and most memorable performance. The scenes with Charlie's father (Stuart McKenzie, also played by Mike Myers) are so funny they will make you laugh until your stomach hurts. Heeeed, paper now!
