Get "Gun"

"I have watched the video of "My New Gun" three times, and each time I have discovered more interesting, telling details. The plot doesn't drive the film; instead, it seems to evolve almost by happenstance from the characters themselves. Although there is no "crack-me-up" humor at all, if you think about what is going on as it happens, this movie is hilarious. Diane Lane, James LeGros, and Stephen Collins all shine."
Great acting by Hollywood's most underated actress...

"I saw this movie without really knowing what it was about and was completely suprised by how good it is. Diane Lane, who is not only beautiful, but talented, plays a yuppie housewife who is given a gun by her husband. After she gets her neighbor involved, James Legros, they embark on series of strange, and mysterious events. This movie won best picture at the Sundance film festival in 1992, and is worth renting, but don't buy unless it's under $20. Diane Lane is truly underated in Hollywood and "My New Gun" proves why."
Disappointment

"The whole movie was a huge disappointment and was nowhere related to any kind of comedy,it is based on a very starnge relation between Diana Lane and a weird neighbor who she permit to have access to every detail of her life though she is supposed to be having a happy merriage..in general, a disappointing performance by Lane, and a very boring movie's scenario."
Enjoyable

"I have so much fun watching this movie. One of the reason I like independent movies is because they don't waste time on unnecesary things in telling a story. Diane Lane is really good in this movie as well as James LeGros. I don't think of LeGros as a leading man type of guy but in this movie I found him very sexy and could see why the Lane character was attracted to him. Its another movie I have watched at least a dozen times and will probably watch another dozen if not more."
