driver, a run-in with mobsters, and Phyllis's increasing desperation to tell Grimm the news that she is pregnant with his child add further complications. All the while, Rotzinger, a world-weary but relentless chief of the New York City Police Department, is doggedly attempting to nab the fleeing trio. A meeting on board an airliner at the airport occurs between the robbers and the chief, who gets the added prize of having a major crime boss dropped in his lap with their assistance. Unfortunately the chief only realizes who they were after their plane has taken off. Cast Bill Murray as Grimm Geena Davis as Phyllis Potter Randy Quaid as Loomis Jason Robards as Chief Walt Rotzinger Philip Bosco as Bus Driver Bob Elliott as Bank Guard Phil Hartman as Mr. Edison Tony Shalhoub as Cab Driver Victor Argo as Mike Skelton Stanley Tucci as Johnny Kathryn Grody as Mrs. Edison Richard Joseph Paul as Lieutenant Dennis Jameson Jamey Sheridan as The Mugger Kurtwood Smith as Vince Lombino / Russ Crane Paul Herman as Interrogating Policeman Reception On Rotten Tomatoes the film has an approval rating of 84% based on 37 reviews, with an average rating of 6.7/10. The website's critics consensus reads: "Quick Change makes the most of its clever premise with a smartly skewed heist comedy that leaves plenty of room for its talented cast to shine." On Metacritic it has a weighted average score of 56 out of 100 based on 17 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Audiences surveyed by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale. Several critics claim it is one of Murray's finest roles: a jaded man who has had too much of the Big Apple. Also praised were the strong performances by the supporting cast, particularly Robards as the police chief Rotzinger, who, while almost as burned out as Murray, is still determined to capture the robbers as a swan song to his long career. Roger Ebert, in his July 13, 1990 Chicago Sun-Times review, wrote: Quick Change is a funny but not an inspired comedy. It has two directors... and I wonder if that has anything to do with its inability to be more than just efficiently entertaining."
