Things turn sour when Gallagher falls in love with his cousin's girlfriend (Suzy Amis), and one of the cousins is forced to grow up and make a commitment to an adult relationship. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Movie Guide

A true sleeper classic
Added 8/29/2009

Some how this gem flew in under the radar when it was released in 1991, so many people don't know how good it is. "Watch It", in my humble opinion, is a truly excellent date flick that somehow hasn't appeared on DVD format yet. What perturbs me the most is there is no "Alert Me" provision on Amazon's VHS or Laserdisc promotional web pages for this film. GET WITH THE PROGRAM AMAZON!

Inexplicably unavailable indie
Added 5/2/2009

I simply don't understand how this particular movie hasn't made it to the DVD format. Many of the actors have gone on to stardom- for one. There are certainly multitudes of titles far inferior to said film that have been produced on DVD- often in several "pressings" in different editions! This was (in my useless opinion), the golden age of indie dialog-driven, no murder and/or explosions comedies, dramedies, etc, and it is well represented by an adequate, charming, and enjoyable, if indeed "inconsequential", outing via "WATCH IT". How's that for a run-on deliberation? I honestly think a great detriment to it's DVD birth is the title. The term "Watch it" is too common place in searches and activities and I'd bet this has secured it's obscurity as the two words simply rarely if ever arrive and/or occur in the context of a movie title. Place this sucker on DVD already!

This was awful

I'm so ashamed for having sat through and watched this whole movie. Don't buy it...send me postage and I'll send you my "newly" bought VHS for free.
Save yourself the shame...never "Watch It."

Where is the DVD?

My wife and I both absolutely love this movie. It is truly a gem that unfortunately has been overlooked by most people. I have been looking for it to come out on DVD for two years now and it just isn't coming out. What's the deal??

How I stumbled upon this movie:

At my local blockbuster in Gillete NJ, I came across a black box with a yellow stick on it that said "watch it!" Apparently someone had lost the case and the replacement display box used was just a black box with a sticker and the name of the movie. However, since the title was watch it! I had no idea what it was, AT ALL. So i did what it said, and i "watched it" AWESOME MOVIE, HILARIOUS.
