How bad is it? Unfunny comedy.
Should you see it? No. The cast is interesting, but no.
Paul Sorvino plays a bank manager whose wife, after their 8th child, insists he has a vasectomy, but he has reservations. There's also an unrelated plot of his boss, Lorne Greene, tasking him with saving the company from thieving relatives. There's some interesting cameos: Abe Vigoda, William Marshall, June Wilkinson and Debra Jo Fondren (who does a topless scene; she was best-known for her pretty knee-length blonde hair, cut before this was filmed). There is not one laugh, though there's potential - both the doctor and nurse for his operation have reason to dislike him, for example (and though we know they're too professional to let that interfere with their work, it could create tension. It doesn't).
This one plagued me as a teenage video store junkie. I remember staring at the VHS box trying to fathom who on earth would want to pay any amount of money to watch a Paul Sorvino sex comedy. This doesn't do much to answer that question, but I'm glad you took the bullet.
ReplyDeleteIt was June Wilkinson and Debra Jo that brought me to the table.
