| ♥♥♥♥♥ | If only there were more movies like this! |
| This movie is timeless - I can watch it again and again through the years and it never fails to make me laugh out loud - often. Both Kurt Russell and the wonderful Goldie Hawn deliver fine performances that will have you in stitches. The movie moves at a steady pace and has enough clever twists to keep you completely enthralled.
Goldie Hawn is pure perfection as the spoiled "Joanna" who is thrust into the domestic life and forced to be a mother to four unruly children and wife to "Dean" (Kurt Russell). Although she has amnesia, Joanna, knows that her life is somehow different - wrong, "I didn't marry well" she says and she dreams of the good life (her real life). It's gags and guffaws galore as Joanna slowly remembers who she is, but not before she's completely rocked Dean's entire world. When he drivers her home (with her in the back of his truck) I almost peed my pants. Like any good romantic comedy, you'll be rooting for this couple and lose yourself entirely in the fantasy of these two worlds colliding. Besides being funny, this movie has heart. The lead characters are multi-layered with depth and emotion - and both are easy on the eyes. Immersed in a battle of wits - sparks fly and tempers flare and the outcome is nothing short of magic. The directing/editing is superb and seamless, the writing is excellent and the cast is flawless. This is a Hollywood movie at its finest. Well done. |
