Trivia:
The scene towards the end in which all the Mafia bosses meet was filmed twice. The first filming occurred in Queens, New York. After watching the scene, Robert De Niro offered some suggestions, including that Dr. Sobel (Billy Crystal) "really belt" Jelly (Joe Viterelli). So the scene was filmed again, this time in Miami, Florida. In the final cut, the two scenes were merged. The shots of the scene in which a room full of people can be seen were taken in Queens whereas the shots in which Dr. Sobel is talking to Primo Sidone (Chazz Palminteri) and slapping Jelly were shot in Miami. There are only two or three people in the room for the scene that was shot in Miami.

STAR RATING:*****Unmissable****Very Good***Okay**You Could Go Out For A Meal Instead*Avoid At All Costs
Analyze This is not one of the best comedies ever,but it's certainly one of the best,inventive and most original in a long while.The script and comic timing are an ingenius success,and it's also intelligently compact,giving it little room to become ponderous and repetitive.Veteran gangster stars Chazz Palmenteri and Robert DeNiro gleefully lampoon their nasty gangster roles,to both chilling and uproarously funny effect.In the scenes where his charecter cries,DeNiro manages to stir up the emotions,but because he and his henchmen have such repulsive attitudes towards everyone,it's hard to like them,a detrimental thing in a comedy.The Italian-American's chemistry with co star Billy Crystal probably was'nt the most inspired or clever ever ,and Lisa Kudrow,not an overly talented performer anyway,is unintentionally wasted here in a mostly pointless role,and,like DeNiro,her relationship with Crystal is'nt the easiest to digest.Despite these minor hiccups however,AT is a hugely superior comic success ,with moments of absolute laugh out loud hilarity,and moments to touch the heart.Very impressive.****
