by pmills1210  in Movies,  - Top 500, Aug 22 '01
Pros: It starts with an interesting premise
Cons: My title says it all
I guess that Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the makers of "Osmosis Jones," were trying to do some sort of homage to the educational films of the fifties, such as Frank Capra's "Our Mr. Sun," and combine them with the style that made their gross-out comedy,...

Pros: Starts off promising
Cons: foul, sick, offensive -- being marketed to the kids!
I didn't have time to write three reviews this weekend, so let me give you the low-down. If you want to laugh this weekend, by all means go see American Pie 2. This is coming from a guy who did not like the original at all....

Pros: Colorful animation sequences and a clever script.
Cons: Graphic gross-out gags flop in the live-action arena.
While it's certainly not among the best movies of the year, Osmosis Jones is not a film that deserved to end up $60 million dollars in the hole. I suppose the end product proved to be a tough sell for Warner Brothers, but I suspect this one will...

by SusanGranger - Top 1000, Jul 27 '01
Pros: Clever premise for Farrelly-funny family entertainment
Cons: Die-hard Farrelly fans may feel it's too childish with some cloying and contrived dialogue
If the Farrelly brothers taught Anatomy & Physiology in school, no one would ever cut class.
This hip, live action/animation story begins as a monkey snatches a hard-boiled egg from Frank Detorre, a widower zookeeper (Bill Murray),...

by MattA75 - Top 50, Aug 12 '01
Pros: fabulous casting, a delightfully evil Fishburne
Cons: the live action scenes lack an awful lot
When one thinks of the Farrelly brothers, they inevitably think about some of the grossest scenes in movie history. The beer bottle in Dumb and Dumber, the "hair gel" in There's Something About Mary, and the infamous "it wasn't for me, it...

Pros: Inventive, bright animation.
Cons: Terrible, unfunny live action.
“Osmosis Jones”, the new film supervised by the Farrelly Brothers, is really two films in one. Unfortunately, the good part and the bad part put together create a mediocre film at best.
Frank (Bill Murray), the single father of Shane (Elena...

by jeffdaddy , Aug 11 '01
Pros: Superb script. Awesome animation.
Cons: The live action isn't as good as the animation.
Summer movies like Osmosis Jones are far too rare treats. Ones that are actually creative and brilliant. Ones that spring forth from the sperm of a unique idea rather than a marketing angle. Ones that artists come up with and pursue rather than...

by scigamer , Nov 26 '01
Pros: inventive visual world, animation, voice talent, screenplay
Cons: horrible live action sequences, Bill Murray
Osmosis Jones is classified as one of those rare animated films that gain little acceptance due to the fact that it’s not the candy coated general commercial material that Disney promotes with every animated feature they produce.Warner Bros...

Pros: Top-Notch animation, great idea
Cons: Gets slow at times as well as a little confusing
Osmosis Jones came out a while ago and received little attention/acclaim/box offic money. This is a realy shame since I hate it when animated flix that aren't targeted specifically at kids don't do well, which doesn't let other films like that get made....

Pros: Well-intentioned, ok special effects
Cons: Just not very good or funny
Chris Rock's jive gets old
When I was in sixth grade or so, I had a class that happened to include one of those health films from the 1950s— you know, the ones that featured primitively animated teachers named Sammy the Sperm or Ralph the Red Blood Cell. Sammy or Ralph would take...

by SKAD13 - Top 1000, Aug 05 '01
Pros: Bill Murray at his gross-funniest; superb animation sequences
Cons: The Farrelly Bros.' trademark grossness
Nobody does sloppy better than Bill Murray. In most comedies, the point of the gag is how some normal guy is mortified at being the victim of some gross-out. But Murray plays Everyslob at such a low level to begin with that nothing can shock him. Just...

Pros: Funny, nice animation, David Hyde Pierce, Chris Rock
Cons: disgusting spots, bad live action areas, Bill Murray needs to shape up.
I'm a twenty-year-old girl and I recently went home to visit family and friends in Massachusetts. While there I had the fortune of seeing three very interesting movies. One of them was "Osmosis Jones."
The plot....
This is an...

Pros: the animation, soundtrack and script keep the show moving
Cons: take a look at review
Have you ever wondered what goes on in the back of your nose when you sneeze? The Farrelly Brothers have. And in their traditional gross-out fashion, they'd like to show you.
There you have Osmosis Jones, a combination of clunky live action...

by packdragon , Jan 07 '02
Pros: Great animation, fun movie, interesting story, original idea for a movie.
Cons: Bill Murray's sickest, grossest role ever. And I like Bill Murray!
It's quite an original idea... let's focus on one white blood cell and create a whole imaginative story about a viral infection. I wanted to see it when I saw the trailers for it because, even if it didn't capture the interest of many others, I saw the...
