3. Bill Murray - Quick Change (1990)
Funnyman and SNL alumni Bill Murray is perhaps best known for his comedic roles in films such as Ghostbusters and Groundhog day, but the man is one mean dramatic actor as well (look no further than Lost in Translation and Broken Flowers for evidence of this; the man has simply matured with age like fine wine). In addition to this, Murray also helmed (co-helmed, really) 1990's Quick Change, about a trio of bank robbers who are attempting to flee New York City after a job. What the film lacks in technical proficiency behind the camera (the camera work mostly feels purely functional and the film looks like it was made in the 70s) is a trio of great performances by Murray, Geena Davis and Randy Quaid and a superb manic, madcap comedy caper script that has our intrepid anti-heroes being chased by grizzled police chief Rotzinger (Jason Robards, Philadelphia) as they hilariously struggle to flee New York City. Oh, and Tony Shalhoub (the future detective Monk) is a riot here.
