About this product

Product Information

Journey alongside nice guy, Joe, who moves to the Big Apple from Iowa. This struggling transplant needs to find a low-rent apartment. He finds the home he can afford, but it comes with a catch. Joe shares his New York apartment with thousands of singing, dancing cockroaches that become his best buds. Jerry O'Connell stars in this quirky comedy as Joe. Megan Ward plays Lily Dougherty, Joe's love interest, who must become acquainted with his new friends and support his quest to win over his surly landlord. Offbeat and fun, the movie was based on a short film originally aired on MTV networks. The movie was released in 1996, and later released on DVD in 1999.

Fun vintage movie
I remember this movie when it came out in the 1980s and mentioned the title to someone I know who actually has pet cork roaches! Got me thinking about the move and so there i go - and bought the DVD to bring back old memories. It is hilariously funny. Sad to see the twin towers in a NY panned scene.

The greatest film ever made
Not just an old-fashioned musical extravaganza in the style of Busby Berkeley, "Joe's Apartment" is also a heartwarming tale of a naive midwestern boy learning about life in the big city. You'll find yourself cheering for Joe, as a tender romance is played out against the backdrop of an epic of modern life, when New York's poorest and most forgotten residents learn to overcome their distrust of an outsider, and help him to find both success and love. Based on the novel of the same name (winner of both the 1994 Pulitzer Prize and the 1995 Nobel prize for literature) and adapted for the screen through the combined efforts of Maya Angelou and Salman Rushdie, the power and majesty of the screenplay has been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce acid reflux, and cure eczema ...

Based on the novel of the same name (winner of both the 1994 Pulitzer Prize and the 1995 Nobel prize for literature) and adapted for the screen through the combined efforts of Maya Angelou and Salman Rushdie, the power and majesty of the screenplay has been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce acid reflux, and cure eczema ("Wisconsin Dermatological Review", November 1999.) Both a critical success and smash hit, the film has been playing continuously to packed houses in New York, Los Angeles, London, Prague, and Rio de Janeiro for over eleven years. Its theme music was adopted in 2004 as the national anthem of Norway (this led to a brief but violent conflict with neighboring Finland, which had also sought to use the music for its anthem, until UN Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali declared before the General Assembly that "Joe's Apartment" should be considered "a part of the cultural heritage of all mankind.") Upon his return from a much-publicized audience with Pope John Paul II, star Jerry O'Connell was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Bill Clinton. With its magnificent cinematography, lush musical score, and sensitive direction of the outstanding performances, it's easy to see why "Joe's Apartment" swept every major category in the 1997 Oscars, and is third on the AFI's list of the most ground-breaking films of all time. The artistry of this film recalls the heyday of Hollywood's past greatness, and will leave you both profoundly moved, and filled with hope for the future of the world. "Joe's Apartment" is THE feel-good movie of the late '90s, a film that will fill the hearts of young and old, from your grandmother to your grandchildren. See it today, with someone you love.

Joe's Apartment 1996
Joe's Apartment is a comedy about Joe, an young Iowian who has moved to New York, seeking an exciting new life. Unfortunately, he is mugged three times in his first day in New York and finds out it's not all it's cracked up to be. He can't find an apartment or a job. He happens across a stranger who agrees to help him try and find lodgings. After prolonged searching, they are just about at their wit's end when an elderly woman comes out of her rent controlled apartment and falls dead. Her keys fly through the air and Joe catches them. His newly found friend ceases the moment and screams out "Joe, it's your mother, and she's dead! You'll have to take her apartment." With this, Joe's escapades begin in the Big Apple, and he soon finds out he has quite a few new friends, thousands in fact. ...

No ordinary roaches mind you, for they can talk, and talk they do as they help Joe avoid thugs, help find work and finally find true love.

If you can stomach it, good movie.
My elderly father enjoys this movie and wanted me to find it and watch it with him on Christmas. It a little gross as the entertainers/characters are Waterbugs/Cockeroaches, but we passed the time together and bonded.
