He is a auctioneer, no much money, no power, not very handsome; he is a ordinary person. But for the woman he love, he could be brave, and become the “Blue Mickey Eyes”.
Michael Felgate, a Manhattan art dealer falls in love with Gina Vitale, is certain she'll soon be his bride. Upon proposing to her at "La Trattoria," a popular eatery in Little Italy. At this point, he learns not only that his bride-to-be is in fact the daughter of a powerful mafia godfather, but that his "discovery" has just embroiled him in a dangerous situation which requires him to pose as the gangster "Mickey Blue Eyes" in order to get out of it alive.Gina‘s father, Frank tries to teach Michael how to talk and behave like a mobster, with the British export Grant hopelessly (and predictably) out of his element. It is almost painful to hear Grant pretend that he can't even begin to sound like an Italian. Caan is ingratiating, but he mostly goes through the paces. As Grant gets into ever greater difficulty, the story necessary to rescue his character (was a happy ending ever in doubt?) becomes evermore elaborate.
The road leading to marrige is tiwst and turns. Michael had to deal with all the ridicilous and tough things, such as auctioning unproper paintings, kissing street girl,and even a murder-by-accident. What a thing! All he did was just to protect his Gina. He tried to get rid of all the messy things without Gina’s notice but failed. The only way to end up seems to be painful—he had to be killed. He agreed, for love.
Does it end like that? Absoultly not, by film's end, Micheal’s steady love came to him rescure. It’s a happy ending. Michael and Gina can live happy forever.
Actually it’s not a interesting movie, but it’s still a touching story, in the name of LOVE.
边听那张“诺丁山”原声唱片，边得出一条休式定律：从“真爱至上”，“四个婚礼和一个葬礼”，“NOTTING HILL”再到“蓝眼睛米奇”，记得他每次都好象有作报告的特别戏份，而且高潮戏全部诞生在那些报告上，导演都不约而同喜欢他做“发言人”，盯上了这个蓝眼睛老男人。
有时候觉得他英国式的笨拙幽默挺过瘾，有时候会颇耐心的在一部尴尬中延续至下一部的尴尬中不知所措，但离开了“理智与情感”中的绅士，老男人的温柔，他就有点失魂落魄，雅致不再了。
意外又是那首“埋死人的插曲”，不就是徐小凤唱红香江的“叉烧包”的原曲嘛，打包买片的喜悦远胜过了看片的过程，而片中熟而陌生的音乐出现总是能勾出回心一笑。那个时空交错的恍惚，以为矩阵无处不在，当回忆无处不在的时候，它象什么？象阳光午后游离在海面上薄薄一层，璨璨闪光的黄金岁月。
叉烧包
叉烧包谁爱吃刚出笼的叉烧包
谁爱吃刚出笼的叉烧包
还有那莲蓉包猪肉包玉薯包豆沙包应有尽有广东包
假使你说你不爱吃广东包
还有那各式各样上海包
让我来告诉你有生煎馒头大肉包生煎馒头菜肉包
好朋友你到底爱吃那一样
你到底爱吃那一样那一样
广东包呀上海包呀广东包呀上海包呀广东包
有个人他们爱吃广东包
有个人他们爱吃上海包
朋友啊到底爱吃广东包啊上海包啊黄蓉包啊上海包啊
我最爱吃是叉烧包....啊

好吧，上面的其实只是应付交差的“软文”一篇。。
个人真正的感受是：
Grant还真是衰到家啊！凡是一个人能遇到的最不凑巧最倒霉的事几乎都给他碰到了，霉运在他身上发生的如此频繁以至于故意安排的痕迹是如此的明显，看他不停犯错的同时只能让看着他一脸衰样的我们欲爱不能欲骂不忍。太多太英式的幽默显然不够讨好。
拿Mafia开刷的电影不止一部两部，这一部显然无厘头的不够充分， 即使是笑点很低的我，也觉得完全不好笑嘛。。。
另外教黑话那一段配音也很喷饭。
影片在纽约拍摄，尽是曼哈顿的镜头，还有纽约人最爱的中央公园，色调干净的要命，阳光也是透明的。情节简单，黑帮老大的儿子死的时候略微有点让人紧张，但也还好，不会揪心。演员都不错，中规中矩。最出色的还是休格兰特的演出，而他演出的就是他自己。
本色的演出，说明这个演员本身就讨人喜欢或者类型化的厉害，他本人就是这一类型。虽然很多人会觉得演技没有突破，但是如果有适合的角色，也是蛮好的事情。而休格兰特就是有点绅士、一点英伦的幽默、一点笨拙、一点勇气、一点坚持。蛮好的。
