Product Description
A bungling burglar takes two hostages & finds himself saddled with a whole family of hilariously obnoxious individuals. Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 05/04/2004 Starring: Dennis Leary Kevin Spacey Run time: 97 minutes Rating: R

Amazon.com essential video
Caustic wit gets a full-body workout in this 1994 comedy, in which a cat burglar (Denis Leary) gets trapped in an affluent Connecticut neighborhood and is forced to hold a bickering couple hostage on Christmas Eve, only to discover that their Yuletide spirit is anything but cheerful. Caroline (Judy Davis) and her husband, Lloyd (Kevin Spacey), have been at each other's throats for so long that they've developed domestic arguments into an art form, and the would-be kidnapper turns into a reluctant mediator, even after he's got the battling couple wound up in bungee cords. The situation grows even more complicated when the couple's smart-aleck son comes home from military school, but it's not the plot here that's a top priority. Instead it's the sheer pleasure of witnessing a three-way verbal jousting match, written with razor-sharp skill and delivered by actors who are perfect for their roles. The movie's got a dark edge, but it never gets too dark--you know that it's not going to slide into more seriously damaging territory, so you can sit back and enjoy the volleys of scathing insults and sarcasm the way you would a Don Rickles performance. If that sounds like your idea of entertainment, The Ref will serve it up with style. --Jeff Shannon

5 out of 5 stars The Ref   November 4, 2008
This is my favorite Christmas movie. If you need a good laugh for Christmas, this is it. This is not for kids though. Denis Leary is Denis Leary,great. Kevin Spacey plays his part like he lives it. I loved it when he took the poker to the tree, it was great. Buy this movie, you'll watch it over & over.


5 out of 5 stars Long time favorite   April 9, 2008
This is a re-purchase of the same movie because over the years we have watched it so many times the DVD just didn't work right anymore. It is one of our favorites and has us in stitches even after seeing it so many times.


5 out of 5 stars Dennis Leary has outdone himself!   March 3, 2008
For some disfunctional holiday fun get this movie. The cast is brilliant as is the script. I love Dennis Leary and Kevin Spacy who continually had me laughing through the entire flick.
