  Classic 80's power film comedy
  
  Whoopi Goldberg is outstanding in this hilarious slapstick 80s comedy gem. I defy anyone who doesn't wet their pants watching this!

  No disappointment
  
  Clearly not the Color Purple but definitely not a disappointment. It is a very watchable film of high quality light entertainment.
