Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Alec Baldwin plays Charley, an eccentric millionaire who is worth 28, 38, 48 million dollars, something like that! This buys a lot of things, maids, swimming pools, clout and influential friends...Oh!!! one more thing!! a twisted life!! Earmarked to marry some pro-corporate, social register bimbo, Charley falls in love with a lounge singer, and parenthetically he is hot for her as well!! Generally, you are not hot for the woman you fall in love with...Very unusual!! but, on the other hand,!! How Nice!! Kim Bassinger looks absolutely beautiful in this movie ,virtually every guy who watches this movie puts themselves in Alec Baldwin's position!! Being married to the same GORGEOUS!! woman copious times, insures that he is not only in love, but he also has the hots, CONSTANTLY!! GREAT MOVIE!! Not a typical Neil Simon film, this one takes the men's side!! The typical guy can laugh inwardly as well as outwardly throughout this entire film!! This is a better Neil Simon effort!! There are no platonic responsibilities to securing an amicable divorce!! Not everyone is a New York intellectual! Nice to know such an accomplished director can accommodate a prevailing eighties philosophy of men just acting like men!! I think this movie is so hilarious!! but then again!! I should!! I am a guy!!

A very rich toothpaste heir playboy (Baldwin) lets raging testosterone make all of his major decisions, which results in tiresomely predictable but never really fatal results. The object of most of his affection is a Las Vegas cabaret singer who is the girlfriend of Bugsy Siegel (Armand Assante in a too-brief appearance). Kim Bassinger does a lot of singing and even more shimmying, but that's about all she contributes to a script which consists mostly of a tiresome series of not very funny one-liners. Don't be misled by the Neil Simon credit. Simon has done far better plays, and should have known enough to burn the script of this disaster before letting anyone film it.

Look I admit its not the greatest ever made but I enjoyed it alot. It does not really do much wrong except maybe take the idea a bit far to be believable but look it beats an action movie. I wish they had made better charactors who were more believeable but that would have risked making it less funny. I remember though most clearly on of the lines from the movie which really stood out and was hilarious and is still everytime I think about it. Alex Baldwin is getting beaten up and thrown round a room by this hotshot rich guy who he really does not like and he gets thrown into a cupboard totally destroying the room and he is busy of all things handing out insults to his aggressor. The best of which is: "that suit...it looks like the lining to a better suit"

This movie on the face of it is complete rubbish. Harmless rubbish, but rubbish all the same. However it does have the redeeming feature of being extremely funny in places. The wacky story line makes this enjoyable, if unrealistic. The film is worth watching, just don't expect anything earth moving.
