Living the part of your life you wished were better is something that many of us have wished we could do, but for Larry Burrows, it becomes reality in 'Mr. Jim Belushi definitely played his best part in this well-done film about second chances. The character of Larry Burrows is believable and is like many blue-collar workers in America. Burrows is the kind of person that lets everyone go ahead of him, with out trying to get ahead himself. The chemistry between Belushi and Linda Hamilton as Ellen is very charming, something that many loving couples have. Michael Caine was also superb as Mike, who actually creeped me out the first time I saw this, which was at least 10 years ago.
It was amazing to see how contrasted his normal life was as opposed to his 'rich life.' People liked him in his ordinary life, but he was feared and despised in his 'rich life.'
In my opinion, this film teaches a very important lesson: Life is what you make of it, and one should be thankful of what they have, and what helped them get there. Destiny is what shapes us, and good things will definitely come our way. RATING:.1/2 out of 5.
I just watched this movie yesterday on cable, and i really enjoyed it. Ok, it´s not the greatest movie ever, but i would recommend this movie to everyone who wants to see a simple movie, wich in the end makes us think, even if it is for a little while.
Everyone has thought even once what if we hadn´t choosed a particular path in our lives, and this is what this movie is about. About the 'IF' and about what might have happened. This is a story about a guy, who thought a bad event from his teen years, had ruined is entire life, then he is sent by some spiritual entity to a parallel universe in which that bad thing never happened and he gets to experience first hand what would have happened in his life, if his life had followed this other path. After this he learns that, there are good and bad moments in every ones lives independent of what lifes we live. And so we have a very good movie. This is one of those movies, that we watch, and quickly forgget, but sometimes when somebody mentions it, we imediatly recall all the details.
It is one of those movies that we always remember even if it is from time to time. Another peculiar thing is MR.DESTINY is filled with familiar faces in every corner.
From James Beluchi and Linda Hamilton to Michael Cane,and we can spend the whole movie recognizing actors, wich is also fun. So i don´t have much more to say, except that i really recomend this movie. Very simple, but very good and very cute too.
It realy puts a smile on our face by the end of it. So watch it, and be happy. Ok, so it borrows a little from 'It's a Wonderful Life', but that was 44 years prior to this film, so why not a new attempt.
Belushi is having a rotten 35th birthday. He didn't get his Wheaties, his coffee, and has lost his job.
The capper is when his self described 'big blue piece of sh.' car breaks down at the end of the day.
He heads into an empty bar to call for a tow. While waiting, he's recognized by the bartender (Caine) as the kid who lost the town's championship baseball game 20 years earlier. This gets him to thinking how life would've been if he had won the game. He finds out when, unbeknownst to him, Caine serves up a motion potion in a glass that gives him a mansion, the prom queen (Russo) as his wife, and makes him president of the sporting goods company he's been canned from. Caine later reveals himself as the one who's responsible for this change, but Belushi is not entirely on board. He never fully adjusts, and in a plot development that doesn't kill the movie but is still odd, he tries to court his wife (Hamilton) from his real life, who is now married to someone else. The good move is that they don't spend too much time on it, as basically they rip of 'Ghost', with Belushi constantly telling Hamilton things only she could know.
It also brings in a hokey dramatic element, as two of his lovers kevetch in the shadows, new wife Russo, and his unbalanced lover Cox. But the keys to the film are the somewhat lengthy beginning, and cheery end. Also good work from the big and recognizable cast, as Belushi is very likable, VERY attractive ladies chosen, and Caine is perfectly easy going as the title guy. Strange that this was Belushi's second film of 1990 dealing with him getting an alternative lifestyle of riches, which was found in 'Taking Care of Business'. Though similar, both films are on the same level of laughs provided. So check this out for a fun exploration of 'what if?' Belushi plays an average Joe whose bored with the simple life and his uneventful existence.
Convinced that his life would have turned out better had he made a home run instead of a miss in a ball game in his high school years, he gets the chance to see how his life would have turned out had he hit that ball. And what a difference it did make. A simple and charming little sleeper, Mr. Destiny plays it's It's a Wonderful Life scenario in good fashion. James Belushi gives an endearing performance and manages to keep his cool throughout. Linda Hamilton and Michael Caine give good support and an array of familiar faces (Rene Russo, Jon Lovitz, Courtney Cox, Hart Bochner) add to the pleasure. Film is overall free of slapstick humor and plays it straight and it does have some very humorous moments.
And a good message as well. On the whole Mr. Destiny delights undemanding viewers who could do a lot worse than this film. Belushi at his most ingratiating and Courtney Cox before Friends has a small role.
I often think Belushi is under-used in Hollywood and this film role is one of his best. For those of you who watch his TV show, this is a very different and likable character. The movie itself is not earth shattering, nor is the message new but rather it is sweet and endearing.
The supporting cast of familiar faces and unfamiliar names is a perfect balance although Lovitz's whining can get tiresome, and Michael Caine's charming spiritual guide has a slightly sinister if not well-meaning edge. Hamilton, as Belushi's wife is unfortunately two-dimensional and one wonders why he married her.
In addition, Renee Russo is wasted and not terribly convincing at the 'prom queen' who got away. Nevertheless, a nice way to spend two hours. Getting to work on this film when it was made back in the summer of 1990. Shot partly in the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC and the remaining parts in Winston-Salem. The massive offices of the RJ Reynolds were used in several office scenes and places in around the beautiful city that is know as the tulip capital of the world Winston-Salem!
I enjoyed my work although it was exceedingly hard work building all the sets like the Golf of Mexico where Renee Russo and Jim Belushi went on their date. I also had a big hand in decorating the bar where Larry encounters the magical bartender Mr. I tacked all those pics on the wall of sports heroes and decorated that phone booth where larry makes a phone call for a cab.

I even put my mothers photo at eye level so i could freeze frame it and show it to her when we watched it. I remember dyeing the grass at his old house with green dye because it first had to be sodded(it was a new house in a new development and I guess they leased it for the movie).then I had to cut that newly laid sod to make it look nice.man that was hard! As far as the movie, when we made it we had no idea what it would be like but after seeing it i fell in love with it because really tells the story of 'what if' as good as I ever had seen it, including the great It's a Wonderful Life. I cried so many times i can't count. I got to meet the wonderful actor Michael Caine while shooting scenes at an old minor league ballpark where Larry's boyhood scenes were played and replayed. I remember after he had done a take an was heading back to his trailer, I ran him down and asked him for a picture and he was quite amiable and said 'why not!' He is a good guy and a really natural and forceful actor.
I can't say the same for Jim Belushi.he was so full of himself, smoking big cuban cigars and talking loudly so everyone in earshot could hear his every word. His career never did take off but he has had a decent TV career recently. I would say watch this movie if you ever get the chance.
It's wonderful and really heartfelt and real. You can feel Larry's pain after he enters into the new world Mr. Destiny gives him after hitting the homer, and as he wants so badly for people to believe he is not this bad guy everyone thinks he is. They all think he belongs in a nuthouse! But eventually he wins people over but by then he wants his real life back so badly, especially his wonderful wife, played so beautifully by Linda Hamilton.and he wants his dog back!
Jim Belushi is terrific as the 'Average Joe' who gets his 15 minutes in 'The Twilight Zone'. Michael Cane is the mysterious bar tender who not only listens to Belushi's 'story', but has a 'cure' for all of Belushi's middle class problems: A magic potion to bring about an avalanche of changes in Belushi's life. Flashbacks show a 15 year old horribly ashamed of causing his High School Baseball Team's Championship defeat. Belushi goes on with his 'pitiful life', seemingly happy, but always wondering 'what if.'
For what seems to be several days, Belushi experiences a 'different' life, one of enormous success, admired and hated by others in equal measure. This is not quite 'It's A Wonderful Life', but some elements are similar, and very endearing. The 'ending' is predictable, but still satisfying. Watch for a very young Cortney Cox in a bit part as 'fatal attraction' -like other woman. A very pleasant film!
Larry Burrows has the distinct feeling he's missing out on something. Ever since he missed a crucial baseball shot at school that cost the championship, he's been convinced his life would have turned out better had he made that shot. Then one night his car breaks down again. Walking into the nearest bar to wait for the tow truck, Larry happens upon barman Mike, who unbeknown to Larry is about to change his life for ever. The alternate life premise in cinema is hardly a new thing, stretching back to the likes of It's A Wonderful Life and showing no signs of abating with the quite recent Sandler vehicle that was Click. It's a sub-genre of fantasy that has over the years produced very mixed results.
Back in 1990 was this James Belushi led production, rarely mentioned when the said topic arises, it appears that it has largely been forgotten. Which is a shame, for it oozes charm and is high scoring in the humour department. We know that we are being led to the ultimate message come the end, but it's still a fun and enjoyable path to be led down. The film also serves notice to what a fine comedy actor James Belushi was. I mean if his style of smart quipping and larking exasperation isn't your thing?
Then chances are you would avoid this film anyway. But for those engaged by the likes of Red Heat, K-9 and Taking Care of Business, well Mr. Destiny is right up your street. Along for the ride are Linda Hamilton, Michael Caine, Jon Lovitz, Hart Bochner, Jay O. Sanders, Rene Russo and Courteney Cox. Destiny is pure escapist fun with a kicker of a message at its heart. I actually like this movie even though I don't fancy James Belushi very much.
In this movie, you can actually see several big names on the rise, Linda Hamilton and Courteney Cox namely; Caine's was already big of course. The plot in this movie is simple; its just like that Sliding Door movie. It however was told in a light-hearted manner and I like the comedy moments in it. It made me trying to relive my own important moments in live, eg what if I've taken that girl out for a movie, and not the other etc. It tells us that people around us could have taken different roles in our lives if some minute details were to change.
It also reminds us to be careful what we wish for. Life is not always as good on the other side as we think; maybe, what we have now is the best for us, all things considered. Reading the various external reviews of Roger Ebert and other well-known film critics makes me hesitate to admit how much I love this movie, even though I only have a dubbed-into-Japanese video version of it. Apparently, many critics seem to take it as a minus that the story premise has been used before, most famously in the very great 'It's a Wonderful Life.' To me, a great premise is a great premise no matter how many times it's used, and I'd be happy to see more movies using this particular premise-the discontented man who gets a chance to gain a fresh perspective on his own life through a bit of 'divine magic.' I suppose folks and critics of a more intellectual bent are not as pulled into the story, but I don't go to movies to critique them with notebook in hand-I go to movies to throw myself into them and let them take me where they will. If you are sentimental sort like myself, you'll be well rewarded by seeing this picture.
The performances are excellent throughout, and the movie was very well cast. Wonderful choice of music, too. Michael Caine is superb as the sympathetic bartender. Jim Belushi does a great job as an 'average Joe' kind of guy who wonders if his life hasn't gone as it should. Linda Hamilton, always excellent, is again right on target here as the loving wife. Jon Lovitz entertains as usual, and even has some surprisingly moving moments in 'Mr.
Destiny' is not 'It's a Wonderful Life,' but who says it has to be? Taken on its own terms, 'Mr.
Destiny' is an enjoyable, well-made, funny, and moving film. I've seen my Japanese-dubbed video of it numerous times, and I'm sure I'll see it several more times. If that somehow makes me a 'lowbrow,' so be it! I'm just glad that I hadn't read any reviews of 'Mr.
Destiny' before seeing it. I suppose I should have the courage of my convictions and give the movie nine or ten stars, but I couldn't help but doubt myself after reading all the critical reviews! This movie is based on the concept of What If? Of course Mr Destiny will be able to answer this question. The main character goes through a bad day, like many of us, and asks this question.
Chaos Theory states a butterfly in China could have an effect on someone over here from a chain reaction. The focus of this movie is based on one event during a baseball game. This event sets into motion one's Destiny; Just like Ashton in 'The Butterfly effect' except Mr. Destiny uses comedy over drama. The results make a fresh, somewhat original movie.
If one's philosophical are in tune with 'The Butterfly Effect' one will likely enjoy Mr. I give it a 7 out of 10. Amazing for I have seen the first half of this movie 3 times, and finally watched the ending on TBS. Not really a big box office draw, but I was pleasently surprised with this movie.
James 'I did some things to Farrah Fawcett' Orr co-wrote and directed this movie about an ordinary, average guy named Larry Burrows who thinks his life would have been incredibly different if he hit a homerun at a key baseball game when he was 15. But thanks to mysterious and magical bartender Mike, Larry gets his wish, yet soon realizes that his new life isn't exactly as he hoped it would be. I must say, this movie really impressed me. Critics have given it mixed, and I must say the concept is really interesting and pulled off well. Yes, it is a little standard, but packs enough funny moments, drama and excellent acting to make it really good. James Belushi (I think) was Oscar worthy for his role.
Jon Lovitz is perfect, and Linda Hamilton plus Renee Russo shine in their roles. Michael Caine is perfect as the bartender.
It's just a good movie with a good lesson. If you've never seen, I highly recommend you check. Destiny - 3.5/5 Stars 'Mr. Destiny's' theme is recycled from many films spanning many different years. Its theme ranges from recent spoofs on such plots (see 'Scrooged'), to the same, more serious and dramatic notion that worked in 'It's a Wonderful Life,' and a century earlier in the story of Scrooge as told by Charles Dickens in 'A Christmas Carol.' 'It involves an ungrateful man being taken on a guided tour of his life, and witnessing how his life could have been (or would have been) first-hand.

In most of these types of movies the guardian angel rescues a man from ungratefulness and shows him his life in retrospect, or how it could have been. Should have been. Would have been. In this case we are shown a businessman named Larry (James Belushi). He hates his life. He lives with an unexciting wife (Linda Hamilton) and yearns for a bigger life with bigger meaning.
If only he had hit the ball at the state championship in high school years ago. He is convinced his life would have been better.
I guess he remembers this seemingly small moment of his life because it made a big impact on his subconscious side, but I doubt a grown man would yearn for one single act from high school. Still, it works in the movie. Anyway, Larry is driving home from work one night, where he is a penpusher along with Jon Lovitz, when his car breaks down. He wanders into a bar looking for a pay phone, and reluctantly decides to tell the bartender (Michael Caine) about the way his life is turning out. This is where we first see him remembering his childhood baseball strike-out. The bartender listens and nods, apparently not worrying about any other customers. This is probably due to the fact that the bar, though old and tattered, seems to have never been occupied by any living humans save these two men.
In fact, Larry even makes a comment about never seeing the bar before. This is most likely for a certain reason that the audience is expecting before Larry. So the bartender, who may as well be an angel of God incarnate, just like Clarence, fixes Larry a special drink of his, which ends up putting Larry's life on reverse, showing him what his life would have been like if he had hit the home run all those years before. But Larry has no idea of any change at first, just like Jimmy Stewart didn't realize that Clarence had erased his life until he went into the bar and got kicked out Larry continues to be oblivious to any change until he goes to his home to find the lawn different outside, and a large, wrestler-type man occupying his home.
Larry soon finds out his life would indeed have been very different had he hit the home run. Instead of marrying Linda Hamilton he married Rene Russo and moved into a large mansion with children. He finds out that Jon Lovitz is no longer his friend but an employee of his. And the most surprising fact of all is that with his new life, that Larry has always wanted.he finds himself lusting after his old wife, Linda Hamilton; proof that sometimes money and a great-looking yet shallow wife don't make up everything in a man's life, like an intelligent wife and love and true happiness. Just like 'It's a Wonderful Life' showed the audience a man's life is what he makes it, and that every person has an impact on people, 'Mr.
Destiny' shows us that material wealth is not the same as spiritual wealth, a lesson taught us over and over again, but never quite so fluffy, forgettable and truly sweet as it is shown us in 'Mr. Destiny' is never exceedingly hilarious, but it is a sweet, good-natured comedy that never takes itself too seriously. The problem with all the 'It's a Wonderful Life' retreads out there, like 'The Family Man,' is that they try to be as influential and memorable as 'It's a Wonderful Life' was. But there are only so many times you can single-handedly rip off a famous film, and 'Mr. Destiny' knows this, and plays right to the fact. It doesn't try to be anything it isn't; rather, it is something it didn't try to be, and this is obvious to the audience.
James Belushi plays his usual loveable role as a man that has his past changed by Michael Caine and then has to live with the results. The supporting cast would now probably cost more to employ than the movie did to make. Courtney Cox of Friends fame, Rene Russo from Lethal Weapon (ironically alongside the woman who parodied her in National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1 in the form of Kathy Ireland), Linda Hamilton and Jon Lovitz all turn in good performances in a movie which gives us a glimpse of the stars before they were bankable. Overall, the movie will not be remembered as anyones best, as its poor showing at the box office suggests, but equally all the cast have made worse. Therefore this is a movie just to simply sit back and enjoy and realise that no matter how bad life seems, it could always be worse. Years ago, I heard a released version of David Newman's theme music for James Orr's 'Mr Destiny', and was so touched and inspired by it that I (fondly) imagined the film might be noble/high quality enough to match that. So now I finally got to watch 'Mr Destiny', in which the version of the music I heard never actually appears at all (even if there are certain - lesser - variations on that theme!
And that strange circumstance maybe tells one most of what one needs to know about this James Belushi-Michael Caine-Linda Hamilton (and gorgeous Courtney Cox) movie, which - from today's perspective anyway - seems mainly trite, implausible, tame, lame and neither quite funny enough, nor quite thoughtful enough. Allowances might be made for this kind of whimsical fantasy, and I did make them. But somehow 'Mr Destiny' does not achieve the cohesiveness and persusasiveness needed to score even in this genre. And in the end that's a pity, because Belushi's Larry Burrows character comes over as reasonably genuine, and there are hints in here of a better movie trying to get out. But some years have indeed passed, and quite a few films have dealt with the topic of how our lives might look if we had taken a different decision at some point. Indeed, 'Back to the Future' was doing that kind of work 5 years BEFORE 'Mr Destiny', 'Peggy Sue Got Married' four years before - and to far better effect. To be charitable, 'Mr Destiny' is mainly harmless, and does have a certain 'feelgood' factor about it, and is occasionally funny.
I watched it through, and was adequately satisified, so it can be done. As a general rule, we would now need some special justifications to go back and watch any 1990 movie, and I'm afraid I'm not really able to make a case for giving an hour and a half to this one. All the more so as even the music was not the exquisite stuff I had hoped for! James Belushi, Linda Hamilton, Hart Bochner, Jon Lovitz and Michael Caine star in this 1990 fantasy-comedy. Belushi (The Principal) plays Larry, a mild-mannered guy who likes his life, but wishes what it would've been like if he had hit a baseball years prior. On his birthday, he gets his wish when he meets mysterious man, Mike (Caine) who takes him on a magical test-run. Hamilton (The Terminator) plays Larry's wife, Ellen, Bochner (Die Hard) plays Larry's despicable boss, Niles and Lovitz (Big) plays Larry's best friend, Clip.Courteney Cox and Rene Russo are also featured.
This is a good film that obviously resembles 'It's a Wonderful Life,' Belushi is great in it as well as David Newman's score. I recommend this.
I like to see current reviews of movies from the past when I check out reviews on IMDb.It's great that we get to review them so late, long after.Hopefully this review helps someone younger or someone in my age group (boomer) that is interested in watching it. We have changed so much from 1990 when this movie was made.
It's nice to remember the naivete' I once had at 40. Jim Belushi is such a likable actor, I can't recall anything I've seen with him that I didn't enjoy.He's an everyday Joe. This movie is fun, it's no masterpiece of film by any measure but, for an hour or so of escapism and a decent bit of entertainment its worth a view. It's an homage to the beginning of the end of an era.No internet jokes, no stupid cell phone references, barely PC stuff.The message is to just enjoy what you have.That's a message well learned.In conclusion, Just grab your popcorn and a beer or whatever, sit back and watch.From 2017 aug. Kinda re-worked version of 'It's a Wonderful Life' With James Belushi as Larry a man who constantly thinks what his life could have been like if only he'd hit the home run in that crucial baseball game as kid. Michael Caine offers him the chance to live his life as if he had, and even with the big house, prom queen wife and kids, Larry still misses the way things were. Maybe a old story and certainly not a classic, but it does have it's moments as Belushi enters his new office, in life version 2, he approches a desk that looks like the bridge of the Enterprise, not finding an on/off switch he sits down and as all the lights come on comments in surprise 'hey whadda know, my desk is wired to my ass!!'
And as he scares the life out of the chauffeur by screaching to a halt in the company parking lot with the word 'See I told you we'd beat that train didn't I All the cast do pretty well, Belushi as the confused Larry, not quite sure if the new version of his life is what he really wants, Linda Hamilton as his original wife, who seems to be the thing Belushi misess most, Rene Russo as the prom queen wife Belushi gets in life 2, and Courntey Cox as a psychotic spurned secretary/fork lift driver, who is having an affair with Larry in life 2, but of course Larry doesn't know this. Most of the cast are big names now and probably make more in one film that the entire budget of this one, still it's fun to watch. One for the six pack and curry brigade.
I enjoyed the film. Though i'm french, i saw it in both english and french language. Belushi and Hamilton make a good chemistry. In this movie, Belushi plays Larry Burrows who thinks his life sucks because he missed a great match as a teenager. On his 35th birthday, after he lived a gloomy day, he meets a strange bartender named Mike and portrayed by Michael Caine, who offers him a glimpse of what his life could have been if he won the game.

I enjoyed the cast, except from Lovitz, who i can't stand.
