Derivative, but comic and highly enjoyable
by phillip (movies profile)
Dec 7, 2008
What makes this comic film so memorable is the stong dynamic between Sonya Walger ("the brawn") and Noel Wylie ("the brains"). Suprisingly, Walger's name does not appear in Yahoo's list of the cast of the film, nor does she appear in any of the highly boring sequals.
Though strongly reminescent of Indian Jones and Almost Everything, the additional comic elements and the fine performances by Jane Curtin and Sonya Walger make this film a must watch for adults as well as one you can safely see and enjoy along with your entir family. |
