Quick Change (1990)

Shat The Movies heads to New York City for Quick Change, the 1990 crime comedy starring Bill Murray as a master planner who pulls off the perfect bank robbery… only to discover escaping Manhattan is the real heist. Directed by Murray and Howard Franklin, the film pairs Murray's signature dry frustration with a city that seems determined to sabotage every step of the getaway.

Gene and Big D break down the chaotic charm of Geena Davis and Randy Quaid, exploring why the movie obsesses over the uniquely exhausting experience of navigating New York City. From the clown-mask bank robbery to wrong turns, broken taxis, suspicious cops, and Tony Shalhoub, Quick Change becomes less about the crime and more about the slow psychological breakdown of trying to leave town.

Is Quick Change an overlooked Bill Murray classic, or just a very specific kind of urban nightmare that only works if you've ever tried to get across Manhattan in a hurry?
