Member Rating:  
Filled with enough cameos to keep film buffs entertained, this otherwise routine action-comedy by John Landis boasts Michelle Pfeiffer as one of its major attractions. She plays Diana, a woman prone to having affairs with some very dangerous men, and Jeff Goldblum is Ed Okin, an aerospace engineer whose lot is thrown in with Diana's when the woman is caught in a bind at the airport. The beautiful Diana is an airhead on the scale of the Hindenberg, her only concerns are clothes and men -- which she either most attractively wears or wears out, depending. While Ed is at the airport one day trying to sort out his life, Diana arrives with six smuggled emeralds in tow and is immediately welcomed by several hired assassins. Fear and expediency propel her into Ed's car, and the two are off on a series of narrow escapes that has them pursued by everyone from Iranians to baddies played by well-known international directors (Roger Vadim) or singers (David Bowie) or comedians (Dan Aykroyd). ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

    I just re-watched this movie, and remember why I liked it. Jeff Goldblum is at his confused best, as a midlife crisis engineer reeling from learning his life is falling apart, and getting swept up in a chain of events. I relate it the movie now that I am at that age, and experienced one of those “moments” in my own life. I love all the cameos and liked the twists and turns. Very entertaining, if not totally “film noir”.

    It's hard to believe this dullard comes from John Landis of Animal House and Blues Brothers genius. It's flat, the two stars have no chemistry, and the thing just bumps along until its merciful end. Dark comedy? Not even close.

    This is one of my favorite Jeff Goldblum films. Good story line, good 80's movie.
