Review of Splash (1984) by Richard Schickel for Time — 11 Aug 1992
Before Director Ron Howard and his gargle of writers (Lowell Ganz, Babaloo Mandel and Bruce Jay Friedman) arrange a satisfactorily romantic ending for their odd couple, they also manage to satirize everything from presidential politics to daytime television.
They are a jostling, busily observant, fundamentally good-natured crew, and audiences are well advised to take a plunge on Splash.
