Give me a break

[CupidGrl · 5/10 · 26 February 2000]

This movie was really stupid. The only reason I watched it was because of Galligan.

The plot really lacked a lot of things. If there even was a plot!

Ok, Zach was a player in the movie, and his girlfried finally broke up with him because she couldn't take it anymore. He went to her apartment to try to get her back, but her room-mate tied him up on the bed and kept him captive. So, they do all kinds of stuff to him, and keep him tied up for like 3 or 4 days. My problem is when he got untied, he still wanted to marry the girl. I would've been too p***ed at her to ever forgive her!

And a few more things...if he was tied up on my bed...I would've had a little more fun with him! lol

A common film title which relates to many scenes that involve Teri Hatcher.

[Brian-272 · 4/10 · 10 December 2000]

Now Mrs. Radio Shack (Teri Hatcher) is found in a movie to be true to many of her acting situations All Tied Up says it all. Now you and anybody who follows Teri knows the many scenes during her acting career she's had to put up with being tied up. Remember the many episodes of "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" that the Lois Lane character is either tied up or gagged or even in one she has her mouth taped with duct tape. So many of those scenes happened on Lois & Clark you probably can't count them! When Teri made a guest appearance on the "Tales from the Crypt" series in one of the early episodes titled "The Thing from the Grave" her mouth is covered with duct tape while she's tied to a bed wearing only lingerie! Just a few months ago I saw this movie All Tied Up on Comedy Central and it's nothing great but worth a watch because of the beautiful Teri Hatcher. The story is weak it involves three attractive women who hold an unlucky man (Zach Galligan) hostage and Teri and the other two ladies just have their way with him even though Galligan stays tied up most of the time. And you guessed just when you thought Hollywood had lost any rope and knots for Teri guess again even though she is not gagged she's tied up in this movie now talk about a lifetime damsel in distress. From what I have seen Teri Hatcher has to be the most tied up actress in Hollywood history! Poor Teri! I know it's only acting but don't you think Teri gets tired of all that rope, knots, gags and tape I would say so even if she doesn't admit it. All Tied Up is nothing special I didn't even know it existed until just a few months ago. Anything is a must watch that features the beautiful Teri Hatcher even if we have to put up with her many tie ups.

"The Burning Bed" and "Misery" for laughs.

[miker-11 · 1/10 · 14 February 1999]

"The Burning Bed" and "Misery" for laughs. This horrible movie tries to make a variation on the hugely successful comedy "9 to 5", but it misses entirely. Three women tie up the would-be finance of one of the women (Teri Hatcher) and keep him prisoner for three days. Their idea of revenge for supposed transgressions consists of various forms of torture, including not letting him use the bathroom, not feeding him properly, leaving him completely tied to the bed and helpless while QVC blasts from the TV all day, using his credit cards for their own purchases, getting him fired for missing an important meeting, shaved him with a rusty razor, and so on. All this for problems making commitments. Get the picture? Hatcher is cute, and very Lois-like, but I couldn't watch the last 10 minutes. My advice? Skip it.

Forgettable.

A guy with a job at a recording studio in Los Angeles is a bit of a party-boy, who likes to live life in the fast lane, which for him includes cheating on women. His girlfriend, played by Teri Hatcher, is the unfortunate damsel on the receiving end of his deceit, much to the disapproval of her roommates. One of the roommates, Kim, acts as the ringleader of the situation, from her tying him up and administering the torture on him. The torture would include feeding him only squash, using his credit card to buy stuff and shaving him with an old razor. He also wets his pants in one scene and they make him wear a skirt while tied to a surfboard. In fact for most of the film he is tied up, so how many jokes can you get out of that, seriously....

Zach Galligan might have been great as the lead role in Gremlins (1984) but this feeble movie does him no justice whatsoever. Sad, but perhaps the most enjoyment I might have got from this movie was laughing at the fashions of 1992! A very slow moving, drag of a movie. Total waste of time!!

Flat As A Pancake

[texasgrad · 1/10 · 2 February 2023]

This script, acting and plot are horribly flat. It shows in the 90's, that stalking and kidnapping were hilarious and acceptable. I know Zach and Teri had other successful projects, but this one is really bad. The dialogue makes Zach's character look like a lunatic, instead of a romantic. Teri's character lets him put a blanket over her head, while riding in a convertible. He constantly breaks in her house for a second chance with her. Her roommates tie him up and do not go to jail? The music score uses blues songs to make us feel sorry for his character, an abuser who can't pin down his mark.

Refreshing comedy

[Synesthesia24 · 10/10 · 27 August 2000]

This movie is full of little surprises some of which I am sure many people may not have noticed. For example the original bar tender is no other than Patrick Bergin in disguise!!! Lara Harris is also a famous model who starred in the much talked about "Gio" commercial. Tracy Griffith is Melanie Griffith's half sister.

Furthermore this movie is zesty, sleek and above all delivers a healthy dose of Girl Power.

It should also encourage you to improve your relationships!!

Brian Hartley is an accomplished music journalist. He's making a very decent living, earning a pretty good salary, and he's got the most beautiful girl in the world crazy for him. There's just one problem Brian hasn't outgrown. He has a tendency to cheat on his girlfriend. But, the one time he manages to stay faithful to her, she finds some swaying evidence which notes otherwise. In an attempt to make up, he is taken hostage by his girl's exhibitionist friends. Great romantic comedy and an excellent B-movie that might have done nicely at box-offices. Will only disappoint the narrow-minded and overly demanding.

not that good

[avida_quesada · 4 May 2010]

This is an excellent movie, if you are a woman that loves severe domestic violence if done to men. He is tortured:form let him wet his pants to cutting his face with a razor, to kidnaping him 4 days. All because he was an unfaithful boyfriend. I hate when this kind of stuff is done to us (women) and I don't like it when is presented as heroic and good just because is done to a man. If you are a men full of self hate you will love the movie too. On technical grounds the movie is closer to bad than so-so. Actuation is not that good. The tortured boyfriend do not show realistic emotions even when he is having his face cut with a razor. Continuity is not that good, and the movie is not realistic. (Example police arrive to the house and he listen to a male voice and do not put himself into making noises, until the guy left). In a nut shell, a mediocre movie,with few scattered funny moments. The only reason to see it is if you are into abusing males.
