Review of Housesitter (1992) by Thomas P — 01 Dec 2015
Clever, absolutely hilarious and sweet.
It's the Goldie and Steve show, give me a front row seat.
Fun fact- Directed by the voice of Miss Piggy.
Yes, Frank Oz is great, and let's the leads shine in each scene.
You never know what will come out of Hawns mouth here.
Awesome.
Perfectly tailored for her here.
And Steve makes the best of every moment, esp his character singing an impromptu song to his dad - I burst out laughing at that and for several things in this one.
I LOVE this flick.
Hilarious one-liners and great stories that get bigger and bigger and bigger, and get a sweet pay off at the end.
It's all about a platform for the leads to get the most out of each situation.
It's cute and floats along with a wink to all its cliches - those cliches, I suspect, are why no one else here liked it - but all I cared about were the things they did with the material.
Brilliant.
Especially on repeat viewings.
Not to be missed.
5.
