Saw it on Hulu this month and it was good! Some say Marisa Tomei's Oscar win for her role was an accident but I'd say she earned it.

I'd rate the movie four slices of Brooklyn pizza outa five.

I'm so glad you finally saw this!
What a fun movie - one of my all-time favorites!

My Cousin Vinny is a classic that will stand the test of time.

It highlights problems with the justice system.

It demonstrates how cultural differences can be problematic in law enforcement.

It shows courtroom drama that even lawyers love.

It has a great script, great characters, great pacing, great scenes... everything synchs. It is a stand-out good piece of cinema.

And Marisa Tomei absolutely earned her award.

Two youths...
First rule is, 'The laws of Germany'
Second rule is, 'Be nice to mommy'
Third rule is, 'Don't talk to commies'
Fourth rule is, 'Eat kosher salamis'
