Synopsis

How do you counsel a patient who thinks "hitting" a pillow to release anger means pumping it full of bullets?

Billy Crystal and Robert De Niro star as a complacent psychiatrist and his neurotic Mob boss client in the gangster comedy Analyze This.

Murdering Mafia don Paul Vitti (Academy Award winner De Niro) makes psychiatrist Ben Sobol (Crystal) an offer he can't refuse: Get rid of his panic attacks before an impending crime-family meeting--or else. Now the underachieving Long Island family therapist gambles his professional reputation, his future happiness and his own life to treat his most disturbed patient ever. And, raising the humor stakes, director Harold Ramis pairs Crystal with Lisa Kudrow ("Friends") as Sobol's fiancée who refuses to let anything overshadow her upcoming nuptials.

Mixing comedy and crime, Analyse This is about a mobster who visits a psychiatrist after suffering from anxiety attacks and struggles to get in touch with his inner feelings, causing no end of problems as a result. Analyse This is a decent film which delivers plenty of laughs. Billy Crystal is on top form as the poor psychiatrist keeping watch over the mafia boss, and Robert De Niro obviously has a lot of fun poking fun at his hard man stereotype. Both characters are really amusing to watch as they bounce off each other and with comedy flowing thick and fast, Analyse This makes for an entertaining and enjoyable film.
