Summary: A surreal, hyperactive farce in which a bumbling petty thief and the lady cop who keeps arresting him fall in love and decide to start a family. When they discover they can't have babies, they steal one from a furniture mogul who has just sired a set of quintuplets. The joys of parenthood are soon marred, however, by the difficulties of raising an infant on the run. The none-too-bright couple must flee across the southwestern desert in order to elude the villainous biker that has been hired to retrieve the tyke. (20th Century Fox)

Coens' "we're on the way" movie shows us that Cage can't act whatever role he gets.. Other than that, quite a good ride..

Another wonderfully crafted film from the Coens. Nicolas Cage is great. So is Holly Hunter and the baby. Recommended, though you might not get it.

The funniest movie ever made. Endlessly quotable, and even heartwarming. Like most Coen Bros movies, it stands up to repeated viewings well and reveals hidden depths.

Like the Coens' Oh Brother, I don't get the humor nor the message and if you explained it to me, it wouldn't make it any more entertaining.

Laugh-out-loud funny in places - particularly the final line - but a bit too broad in its farce for my tastes.

The Coen Bros. do silly madcap comedy. The plot is quick and simple, and provides plenty of cheap laughs. Leonard Smalls' dialogue scene is awesome. A fun ride.

"Worst of their best" is a good summation of the Coen Brothers' first comedy (that isn't Crimewave). Not all the jokes are great or age well, but the revelatory over-acting and ridiculousness of the performances are also worth some laughs. Regardless, many of the Coen signatures are present. This one is probably skippable unless you're a big Coen Brothers fan or completist. Weird to think they went from Blood Simple, to this, to Miller's Crossing in 6 years time.

This movie is so fucking broad. I hear over and over again how Lebowski takes several watches to fall in love with, and how easily accessible Raising Arizona is. I don't understand that. This is some 80s movie horseshit. Baby stunts? What is this? To the best of my knowledge this is the only Coen film that directly parodies other films, which is a sign of its weakness. Also, I don't know if this is nit picky, but Arizonans don't speak like that. Southern drawls are just funny I guess?

Meh... kinda funny, kinda quirky. If it weren't the Coen bros, though, this score would be about 15 points lower.

The Coen Bros. having some fun. Holly Hunter is marvelous and Nicolas Cage was good too but it only got interesting in the last 20 minutes. I hated the biker character. But a funny script and 2 fantastic leading performances makes this a good watch.
