"Pure Luck" is an American remake of the second one, made ten years later.
Was this review helpful? French humor is not well understood once it's translated.
The original Depardieu character in La Chevre was an impatient take-charge man who always had to exercise self-control in the presence of the guy with bad luck, knowing all the while that he was really the professional private eye and the competent one and forced to play along with the Richard character's self-delusions about his own investigative prowess. Martin Short and Danny Glover star in PURE LUCK, and the title plus Short should be a tipoff as to the quality of this obvious tax writeoff.
The idea how to find her is either insane or brilliant - to send after her an equally unlucky person.
Martin Short and Danny Glover are a comdey duo as great as Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin. 7 out of 13 found this helpful.
Well, Lamarr did, (Kleiner's pet headcrab) and right in front of us as well.
For somebody who has seen the French original with Pierre Richard and Gerard Depardieu, this is the worst remake of a movie for all times.
Harry Crumb is a bumbling and inept private investigator who is hired to solve the kidnapping of a young heiress which he's not expected to solve because his employer is the mastermind behind the kidnapping. Because of her bad luck, her father is convinced to send the equally bad luck accountant Eugene Proctor (Martin Short) to follow Valerie and partnered with Campanella.
This movie is one of the very few movies I know line by line, and for a reason: Every line is memorable. A Chicagoan inherits an old yacht. The daughter of a wealthy businessman has disappeared in Mexico, and all the efforts to find her have been unsuccessful.
Is a great funny film that can cheer up any day of your life and keep you thinking on some of the scenes after it's been finished.Keep track of everything you watch; tell your friends.

3 out of 5 found this helpful. It is always real funny. While reading through the ratings, I encountered some negative ratings. For the "new" version they found Martin Short and Danny Glover who will always be linked with his Lethal Weapon-roles. There was something very special in the chemistry between French actors Gerard Depardieu and Pierre Richard that was lacking in the Martin Short, Danny Glover comedy team. Arlo accepts what seems to him to be a dream promotion to Idaho. The strong, and aggressive Depardieu, and the always unlucky Richard made an unforgettable duo.
It's a funny, light-hearted film with plenty of action and comedy thrown in that will always entertain well for people of all ages.8/10 Even though Danny Glover and Martin Short didn't seem to "get" what the characters in the original film were all about, which made it a true comedy classic, they still pulled off funny performances which made for good if not outstanding comedy. Was this review helpful? I don't know what all the negative comments are about. The slapstick just keeps getting more and more outrageous as the movie continues.

Somehow this is supposed to mean Short will be able to find the lady, who has been kidnapped. 13 out of 17 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? This is a very funny movie that deserves to rated much higher than it is! To guess a number, simply tap the numbered coin that represents the number you wish to guess for each round.
