YMMV / See No Evil, Hear No Evil

Go To

  • Fridge Brilliance: Eve's humiliated arousal when Dave tricks her into doing a Shameful Strip becomes a lot funnier when you remember that he never even had a gun.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: It's not the only time Joan Severance and Kevin Spacey play a criminal pair.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Eve is one of the two henchmen sent by Mr. Sutherland to retrieve a valuable coin from Mr. Scotto. Finding him in Dave Lyons and Wally Kerew's concession shop, Eve shoots him, taking his briefcase and leaving Dave and Wally to be framed as the murderers. Unable to find the coin in the briefcase, she and her partner Kirgo guess that Dave and Wally have it and disguise themselves as their lawyers to bail them out. Dave and Wally escape the police station but are caught by them outside, as Eve takes the coin and leaves Kirgo to kill them before they escape using a car and are chased by the pair. Eve and Kirgo stay at a resort where Dave and Wally steal the coin, but Eve and Kirgo then kidnap Wally's sister Adele and take her to Sutherland's estate. Dave and Wally free her, but are captured by Eve and Kirgo respectively, and when Eve goes to Sutherland's studio and finds that Kirgo has been killed by him, Eve manages to kill Sutherland first, as she now plans to escape with the coin using Sutherland's helicopter and leave Dave and Wally to be framed by the police again, coming very close to victory.
  • Values Dissonance: Dave and Wally sexually assault Eve, which nowadays would not nearly be seen as humourous as it was in 1989.
