Acerca de esta película

Two carefree pals (Ralph Macchio and Mitchell Whitfield) traveling through Alabama are mistakenly arrested, and charged with murder. Fortunately, one of them has a cousin who's a lawyer - Vincent Gambini (Joe Pesci), a former auto mechanic from Brooklyn who just passed his bar exam after his sixth try. Vinny's never been in court - or in Alabama - and when he arrives with his leather-clad girlfriend (Marisa Tomei in her Oscar® winning Supporting Actress performance), to try his first case, it's a real shock - for him and the Deep South!

Don't watch it in bed...you'll fall off of it laughing. Just like I did when I first came home from major surgery over 2 decades ago. Believe me you'll burst your stitches.

I don't think any of the actors could've done a better job. The stories catchy, used clean humor; I believe it's one of the most excellent comedies I've yet to watch.

Marisa Tomei, who had done some work before this film, nevertheless seemed to come out of nowhere and make her mark in this groundbreaking comedy. She takes an already juicy part and imbues it with a freshness and spontaneity that catapults the film into 'classic' territory.
