I think Hudson Hawk was just way ahead of its time, audiences in 1991 weren't ready for crazy action comedies. If released today it would be a smash hit for today people love crazy off the wall comedies.
I think people expect a thrilling action movie when they see the name of Bruce Willis in the headlines. When you read the plot, you ought to expect that kind of movie. In reality 'Hudson Hawk' is just pure comedy gold. Great parody of the genre. the dialogues and action scenes supposed to be so bad, because it's a comedy, and still one of my favorite comedy's of the nineties...
I love this movie, so many memories. This is my favourite part.
Just a little trivia though, Hudson mentions it will take them 5minutes 32seconds to sing the song (and perform the heist), in the movie it only takes him 3minutes 50seconds to sing the song from beginning to end. The movie credits the song to Bing Crosby, which only goes for 2minutes 30seconds (3minutes at most when performed live).
Thanks so much for posting this! A wonderful scene from a truly awful movie, (much like the car chase from To Live and Die in L.A.) But my mom used to sing me this song when I was little, and I love Bruce, so it's a winning combo no matter what movie it's in.
@amybee40 its clever, well written, has funny characters and dialogue, and is really memorable. now why arent you completely taken with this great movie.
