7/10
Burned down by critics, loved by the masses. Silly eighties romantic action comedy. Goldy Hawn and Mel Gibson SHINE! Great fun. Great romance. Silly action.

Back to the eighties. This movie was burned down to the ground by all the critics who despised it. It is flat out silly and cheap, but the masses loved it anyway. Why?

The good nr 1 Terrific actor's chemistry between Goldy Hawn and Mel Gibson. Fireworks are going off. Yes, it's over the top, in your face, silly acting, but there is always a joke around the corner and there is always a great budding romantic attraction that lifts up this movie.

The good nr 2 Ladies, you get to see Mel Gibson's (hairy) b*tt. In close up. With a needle sticking in it and two ladies having a catfight over Mel when he has a needle in his b*tt.

The good nr 3 It's big Hollywood mindless entertainment and it's really good at that.

Any bad? If you dont like big cliche Hollywood comedy blockbusters, then better pass this one by.

But I say let's celebrate the eighties! Have a popcorn and a coke, watch it with family and friends and have a good time!
