The Odd Couple (1968)

Lemmon and Mathau's finest hour.

Felix and Oscar are now part of the American mythos.

The good news is that, as sitcom-style theater goes, The Odd Couple is often highly amusing, with Lemmon and Matthau ideally cast as prissy neatnik and unmitigated slob.

The Odd Couple, Neil Simon's smash legit comedy, has been turned into an excellent film starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. Simon's somewhat expanded screenplay retains the broad, as well as the poignant, laughs inherent in the rooming together of two men whose marriages are on the rocks.

A funny screen version of a very funny (if not very significant) Broadway comedy. It does well as an evening's entertainment.

What makes the film so charming is the comic interplay between Matthau and Lemmon.

Revisiting Saks’ screen version nearly 50 years later is like a class in how comedy and storytelling evolve, and how some aspects of a story endure over time, while others get sloughed away.

Playwright Neil Simon occasionally takes off his clowns' masks to show the humans beneath. In doing so, he has made his Odd Couple real people, with enough substance to cast shadows alongside the jokes.

For all its overfamiliarity, this is a good play, easily Simon's best, and Matthau and Lemmon inhabit it with grace and style.

Saks takes Neil Simon's play pretty much as it comes, but with Lemmon and Matthau to watch, and a generous quota of one-liners, who needs direction?

两个人如同做了夫妻一般。菲利克斯以家庭煮夫定位进入奥斯卡的生活后，两个人的临时家庭责任分工就逐渐向真实夫妻生活靠拢，争吵抱怨的内容无一不同。

不懂就问，这是婚姻片吗？

天哪怎么这么萌，萌得我在床上翻来翻去翻成皮皮虾 结尾老伙计们都一脸嗑到了的表情，你俩为啥还不在一起！

好好笑，杰克莱蒙的人妻感啊，太可爱了吧！幻视到后来很多好友日常类的情景喜剧。莫妮卡、钱德勒、谢耳朵……似乎都有点杰克的这些特质。

Call me by your ex wife's name.🤣🤣🤣

有些情节略显沉闷，但是杰克·莱蒙与沃尔特·马修实在是太有化学反应了，两人互动就是笑点。杰克·莱蒙将一个强迫症兼洁癖患者演得附体啊。

救命，这片子要是搁现在腐女们不都得刷疯了！非常标准的夫夫同居范本了，好欢乐！Jack Lemmon的贤惠人妻属性简直了！片名就叫The Odd Couple还能说什么…【居然和新婚燕尔是一个导演，果然吵架斗嘴戏如出一辙。

两个离婚老男人住到了一起，一关门过日子，发现原本投契的好基友竟也相看两厌起来，三天大吵两天小闹，连吵架的款式、理由、台词都跟婚姻中的夫妻一模一样，陷入冷战时互相折磨的伎俩更没任何新意。基友的默契？不存在的。编剧大概想说：婚姻本质不是两性战争，是任何两个非要凑对过日子的个体的战争。

“有所隐喻的人物关系”片例，改编自室内话剧，看到情景喜剧的影子，只萌不腐适合翻拍；两个离异男的同居生活，老夫老妻的相爱相杀、折磨拯救；性格脾气和生活习惯不和的全方位展现，既是眼下同性室友的矛盾，也是曾经交战前妻的重现；多次喊漏嘴误叫前妻名字简直惯性杀，对方潜移默化而来的改变是弧光

六十年代的超卖座喜剧片，性格冲突式喜剧的教科书，尤其是身份上前妻互换的设定相当有搞头，要是搁到现在来拍绝对会是部充斥着各种基腐元素的无厘头片。尼尔西蒙写的对白实在太棒，当然要是没有两位戏骨的碰撞，肯定效果也将大打折扣。

后世很难再翻拍出这么化学反应强烈的直男bromance同居故事了，台词精妙，表演精彩，没有任何越界的地方。莱蒙在自己的纪录片里提过自己和马修演戏几乎不需要排练，两人一拍即合，这种天作之合（比利怀德语）真的出不了多少个

《论如何（怎么可能）跟处女座的男人生活在一起》。单场戏太长了，尽管两位“最佳拍档”表演得很卖力，笑点还是稍稍有点寡。

Neil Simon的这个本子太好玩了

大。腐。片。为什么Jack Lemmon总是人妻属性啊！洁癖强迫症演活了，有趣！这片子若是黄金年代的怀尔德来拍，该多么完美！

这部电影太适合拿来翻拍了，这年头这样的哥们儿爱情喜剧肯定更受腐女和基友的热爱，只要找俩有爱的男猪脚，口碑是无法左右票房。当年的杰克·莱蒙太傲娇了，岂能用一个萌字来形容，只可惜那个年代还不懂赤裸裸的卖腐，尽管最后老夫老妻般的天台“离婚戏”很够味儿，但也仅此而已了。★★★

这两只太好玩了，虽然有点话唠，但还是挺欢乐了~

两个离婚男人，一个毒舌邋遢又傲娇，一个煮饭洗衣事事讲究很人妻。一边因忍受不了对方的洁癖想将其赶走，可一边又嘟囔着你是我最重要的人。即使最讨厌对方的清单在不断增加，可追逐打闹间那份浓浓的感情是不会变的。

四十年前的电影，两个男人，演活了婚姻。

这海报真不靠谱。

jude law说新版福尔摩斯是odd couple和butch&sun dance的综合版，唉，您能不能不要把标准定得那么高啊！
