Oh, Joe Pesci. Remember when you were making movies starring as a likeable jerk and it was awesome? Those were the days. What Is A Yute My Cousin Vinny Shirt! This movie is hilarious, and it really gets going once the court is in session. Classic performance from Marissa Tomei, which put her on the map. How good was she? Her performance netted her rare Oscar nomination for a comedic performance. I cannot think of an actor quite like Joe Pesci. His style is so distinct but it all comes naturally to him.
