Review of She-Devil (1989) by Gene Siskel for Chicago Tribune — 05 Feb 2015
Seidelman, Strugatz and Burns are so busy systematically constructing Barr's revenge and keeping her smugly vindicated, they fail to realize they've bulldozed all comical landmarks in sight. So it ultimately doesn't matter whether or not Streep is redeemed, Barr is vindicated, Begley is punished -- or whether or not they all go to hell in a handbasket.
They're all buried under the rubble.
