The imdb average for this movie as I write this is 7.5. Ironic because I struggled from halfway through the movie until I decided to write a review 3 days later trying to decide if this was a 7 or an 8.
I think the reason (unfair or not) that I went with a 7 was because I had seen a number of superior movies recently. If I had seen a lot of dogs, I probably would have erred on the side of an 8.
This is a movie that is perfectly ok to watch. I didn't look at my watch. I didn't feel bored. I didn't dislike anything in particular. However, I also didn't ever one time think I was watching a very good movie - just a pretty respectable one.
In order to justify an 8, it has to have some quality that is superior, that I want to remember. Analyze this had no such quality. It was a nice time watching De Niro and Crystal involved in intrigue and mayhem, but nice is a 7.
I should say that there were quite a few cute lines, but no REALLY FUNNY lines and the usual violence and language that you would expect.
