A giddy attempt to combine a standard film noir plot and a contemporary sex farce about men who (to quote John Hiatt's song) let their little heads do the thinking, One Night at McCool's is a promising comedy that never hits full speed, coasting along amiably enough before spiraling into violence that clashes with its trashy sensibility. It's not as polished as Grosse Pointe Blank, but it's fun enough to recommend, especially for those who drool at the sight of Liv Tyler. The movie begins by suggesting that Liv is sexy, then proceeds to prove it, and then continually insists upon it until you're left with no choice but to wholeheartedly agree. It's an easy choice, but pity the movie's wretched guys for making it.
As bombshell Jewell Valentine, Tyler lures three guys into her criminal scheme of happy homemaking. Bartender Matt Dillon's the first to take the bait; as Dillon's lawyer cousin, Paul Reiser can't resist; and when murder complicates everything, detective John Goodman employs his own love-struck brand of chivalry. Sporting a tacky pompadour, Michael Douglas steals the show as a hit man hired to whack the scheming sexpot--and Andrew Dice Clay is surprisingly funny in a dangerous dual role--but of course Liv can hold her own. It's all quite amusing, but rarely is McCool's as funny as you hope it will be; the dialogue by Stan Seidel (who sadly died before filming completed) is zesty enough but lacks the Coenesque punch that would kick it over the top. It hardly matters, though; with a femme fatale like Liv in control, the movie's faults will be easily forgiven. --Jeff Shannon

The Bottom Line:
A quirky, quickly-forgotten comedy, One Night at McCool's is certainly not a great film but it features a good deal of amusing material and humorous performances from Douglas and Goodman; it's sufficiently different to be worth seeking out.

It's a shame that not too many people seem to have heard of One Night at McCool's because it is just such a great, dark movie with a little romance and comedy woven in. Even more surprisingly, I found this fabulous film in my local Wal-Mart's $5.50 bin. Their low, low prices were my big, big DVD collection gain, as this is one movie I will never part with. The story revolves around 3 men's recounting of one night at McCool's, the local bar, where they each become smitten with a beautiful young woman ... Read More

This film ended up being much more entertaining than I thought. The cast is great. Paul Reiser, John Goodman, Michael Douglas, Reba McEntire, and others. I've never cared much for Matt Dillon but this role for him worked pretty good here.
But, who really makes the film great was the gorgeous femme fatale, Liv Tyler. I've loved her in many films. She's got this natural trashy demeanor that is just so sexy. The kind of girl you'd hope to meet if you had to walk through some delapitated ... Read More

One Night at McCool's was a bit of a disappointment, considering the makeup of the cast: Matt Dillon, Liv Tyler (who is GORGEOUS!), and John Goodman among others; though by no means is it a terrible movie.
The acting is very good, the humor is good, and there's the originality of the script/story.
So it's an interesting plot, a good setting and a wonderful cast, and yet it fails to take off.
The potential for a great movie was definitely there.
In a nutshell, it's an ok movie ... Read More
