He is a auctioneer, no much money, no power, not very handsome; he is a ordinary person. But for the woman he love, he could be brave, and become the “Blue Mickey Eyes”.
Michael Felgate, a Manhattan art dealer falls in love with Gina Vitale, is certain she'll soon be his bride. Upon proposing to her at "La Trattoria," a popular eatery in Little Italy. At this point, he learns not only that his bride-to-be is in fact the daughter of a powerful mafia godfather, but that his "discovery" has just embroiled him in a dangerous situation which requires him to pose as the gangster "Mickey Blue Eyes" in order to get out of it alive.Gina‘s father, Frank tries to teach Michael how to talk and behave like a mobster, with the British export Grant hopelessly (and predictably) out of his element. It is almost painful to hear Grant pretend that he can't even begin to sound like an Italian. Caan is ingratiating, but he mostly goes through the paces. As Grant gets into ever greater difficulty, the story necessary to rescue his character (was a happy ending ever in doubt?) becomes evermore elaborate.
The road leading to marrige is tiwst and turns. Michael had to deal with all the ridicilous and tough things, such as auctioning unproper paintings, kissing street girl,and even a murder-by-accident. What a thing! All he did was just to protect his Gina. He tried to get rid of all the messy things without Gina’s notice but failed. The only way to end up seems to be painful—he had to be killed. He agreed, for love.
Does it end like that? Absoultly not, by film's end, Micheal’s steady love came to him rescure. It’s a happy ending. Michael and Gina can live happy forever.
Actually it’s not a interesting movie, but it’s still a touching story, in the name of LOVE.
看完电影印象如题，搞笑是真的搞笑，不像最近春晚那些小品那种无聊硬搞笑。主要内容就是英国绅士爱上黑帮女被卷入黑帮冲突最后抱得美人归的剧情。美式幽默夹杂英式幽默吧，男主和岳父的互动很好笑，剧情还蛮紧凑的，不是很拖沓，就是最后结局部分有点牵强。可能因为最近比较沉迷于休格兰特，所以感觉他表演的真的很好笑，就是他说话语调还有停顿，动作什么的。当然，那个岳父演的也很好笑，有点恶搞模仿教父那种吧。/
影片在纽约拍摄，尽是曼哈顿的镜头，还有纽约人最爱的中央公园，色调干净的要命，阳光也是透明的。情节简单，黑帮老大的儿子死的时候略微有点让人紧张，但也还好，不会揪心。演员都不错，中规中矩。最出色的还是休格兰特的演出，而他演出的就是他自己。
本色的演出，说明这个演员本身就讨人喜欢或者类型化的厉害，他本人就是这一类型。虽然很多人会觉得演技没有突破，但是如果有适合的角色，也是蛮好的事情。而休格兰特就是有点绅士、一点英伦的幽默、一点笨拙、一点勇气、一点坚持。蛮好的。

好吧，上面的其实只是应付交差的“软文”一篇。。
个人真正的感受是：
Grant还真是衰到家啊！凡是一个人能遇到的最不凑巧最倒霉的事几乎都给他碰到了，霉运在他身上发生的如此频繁以至于故意安排的痕迹是如此的明显，看他不停犯错的同时只能让看着他一脸衰样的我们欲爱不能欲骂不忍。太多太英式的幽默显然不够讨好。
拿Mafia开刷的电影不止一部两部，这一部显然无厘头的不够充分， 即使是笑点很低的我，也觉得完全不好笑嘛。。。
另外教黑话那一段配音也很喷饭。
