Surprisingly boring and annoying '80s movie. Mistaken identity, blah. Nothing really funny happens.
July 25, 2002
Works despite Madonna and not really because of her.
July 26, 2002
Still Madonna's only worthwhile film performance.
June 08, 2005
Offbeat Susan Seidelman comedy features funny Madonna and Arquette.

Oddball fun.
October 23, 2004
It has its moments, and many of them involve the different kinds of special appeal that Arquette and Madonna are able to generate.
March 26, 2004
This has to be the most overrated movie of 1985.
May 23, 2008
All of this is cause for consistent smiling and a few outright laughs, without ever building to complete comedy.
May 23, 2008
Director Susan Seidelman guides her cast with a light, enthusiastic touch, never making more out of her frothy material than need be.
June 20, 2006
Featuring the first (and only decent) screen performance by Madona, this charming comedy imposes the old fracical gimmick of amnesia on a hip and stylish East Village milieu.
January 26, 2006
Even if the plotting (a mistaken identity farce involving that old chestnut, amnesia brought on by a bump to the head) is square as a square peg. Madonna has never found a better fit than the role of Susan.

The film acquires a pleasant, syncopated rhythm as it bounces from one unlikely event to another.
