Description

Comedy sensation Mike Myers stars with Nancy Travis in this hatchet-driven romantic comedy about a wedlock-shy coffee house poet who finally meets the perfect woman. When it comes to love, Charlie Mackenzie (Myers) has had his share of bad luck: Sherrie was a klepto-Charlie still can't find his cat. Jill was unemployed-but Charlie knew she really worked for the Mafia. Pam smelled like soup-beef vegetable soup. Good thing for Charlie these shortcomings became apparent, if only to him. Good thing for Charlie he discovered the truth before things went too far-before he stumbled into MARRIAGE! Because to Charlie the "M" word is just one step away from the fate foretold in that chilling phrase: "Till death do us part." When Charlie meets Harriet Michaels (Travis) everything changes. Harriet's not like the others. She's smart, sexy, and crazy about Charlie. This time Charlie is determined to overcome the fears that sabotaged his past relationships. This time, he's ready for some commitment. Sure, Harriet may have her shortcomings-but so what? After all those other women, what's the worst she could be? An axe murderer?

  • Would have been great without Myers

    The cross-eyed hell-llo thing was funny in third grade. It is silly to think that a character played by Travis would ever fall for such an immature dork. This is a great movie for an adolescent male audience, but not for general audiences. Myers messed up this film. It could have been fantastic. I wouldn't mind seeing a remake with someone like Scott Lang or Simon Pegg.

    This is a one of a kind movie. Its funny and just different, a little odd. Not as weird as The Cable Guy, which is one of my favorite movies, but just kinda strange, which makes the movie unique. Mike Meyers is hilarious.

    I saw this in the theatre back in '94. It changed comedy for me forever. When comparing this masterpiece to other films only a few came close to the writing, acting & timing this movie possesses. My favorite scene is Charlie in the butcher shop scaring the customers with his meat fingers. Then again, "HEAD MOVE NOW!" is a great contender. To see this film is truly appreciating what comedies can achieve. Dirty, Rotten Scoundrels is another epic, timeless love of my life and they should be celebrated as such. Jenelle

    So I Married An Axe Murderer is said to be a mediocre comedy, but I found nothing wrong with it. I liked the way they mixed a mysterious thriller with funny comedy. I enjoyed seeing Myers make his earliest attempt at multiple characters with Charlie's father Stuart Mackenzie. It is clear that Stuart was the origins of Fat Bastard and even the voice of Shrek. I consider it a 90's classic.
