Product Description: They're Grumpy Old Men [Side A]. And since they're played by famed screen odd couple Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau they're also Funny Old Men. The wit hits the fan as the two play Minnesota ice-fishing pals whose crusty friendship grows hilariously icier as they vie for an attractive widow (Ann-Margret). Also in the cast are Daryl Hannah Kevin Pollak Ossie Davis and an outrageously randy Burgess Meredith. The two leads grab their fishing rods to reel in another comic whopper in the sequel Grumpier Old Men [Side B]. Most of the original cast returns and Sophia Loren plays the vivacious newcomer who wants to turn the beloved bait shop into a chichi ristorante. Of course in this part of the Land of 1000 Lakes that means war! Enjoy. And yes this is the movie with the "man-sized manicotti" outtakes!Running Time: 93 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: PG-13 UPC: 012569817487 Manufacturer No: 81748
A Double Dose of Grumpy Will Make you Twice as Happy Two geezers arguing is funny as it is. Two geezers taking that argument further and pulling immature pranks on each other is even funnier. What makes it funniest is the great comedic duo of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau are the two geezers behind those pranks.
That's what you get with "Grumpy Old Men/Grumpier Old Men." In the first installment the two old grumps compete for the attention of an attractive widow (Ann-Margret) who's just moved in across the street from them. In the sequel, Matthau and Lemmon return, but this time to stop their beloved bait shop from being turned into a restaurant. In translation, war between Maria (Sophia Lauren) and Max (Matthau) and John (Lemmon).
Together Matthau and Lemmon are comedy gold...Matthau with his charmingly sarcastic jokes and witty one-liners and Lemmon also with some witty one-liners, but he was always the more serious of the two, constantly trying to fix the messes that Matthau`s characters would create. Their chemistry on screen was amazing and can never be duplicated. This double feature is a must have for fans of Matthau and Lemmon.
Ignore the one star reviews...they just bash the fact that it's not widescreen claiming they were all schemed. The back of the DVD clearly states that the movies are FULL screen.

Wonderful hilarious movies. I laugh every time I watch them.
Grumpy & Grumpier... This movie is about 2 old men fighting over a women, Typical men...Not!! These men have known each other since they were little kids...they are kinda jealous of each other after all these years. I'd say it's a funny romantic comedy. I rate these movies a 8 from 1to10!!
Great movies, great value! These two movies are very entertaining and funny! Good old fashion laughs! Great value! I watch these movies about once a week! I'm a fan of Walter Matthau!
WIDE-SCREEN vs.FULL-SCREEN format sucks but for the price of one cup of java @ Pete's funny movies & the first one is hilarious WIDE-SCREEN vs.FULL-SCREEN we know alright the format sucks, but... You get Two movies on one two-sided DVD (2x1) at the price of a single coffee Latte at Starbucks, Pete's, Java or at your favorite spot.
WIDE-SCREEN vs.FULL-SCREEN format, hmm???, needless to say we might buy it on Blue-Ray in the near future, however if you can spear less than Ten Bucks for Two movies with Walter Matthau & Jack Lemmon the best ever comedic duo, plus the supporting roles of both sultry royalty actresses Ann-Margret, and Sophia Loren, also in the cast are Daryl Hannah and Kevin Pollak, Both movies are very funny at least the first one is hilarious.
Have a few laughs and enjoy. Thanks.
