Review of Working Girl (1988) by Steven1981 — 23 Mar 2020
Working Girl is essentially a 1988 comedy, drama romance type of film but as far as I'm concerned isn't very funny if at all. Tess McGill (Melanie Griffith) is some secretary for some lady boss named Katherine Parker played by Sigourney Weaver but when she has a skiing accident and breaks her leg and ends up in hospital Tess McGill (Griffith) is forced to take over after receiving a phonecall from hospital and talking to a hospitalised Katherine Parker (Sigourney Weaver).
She has a meeting or two with some businessman named Jack Trainer (Harrison Ford) and some romance but when Sigourney Weaver is released from hospital she wants to put an end to Tess McGill's cushty existence and says she's lying about this and that and blah, blah, blah and even gatecrashes a meeting at the end of the film to disrupt a important meeting between Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith.
This film has romance, nudity, bad language, sex scenes, nudity and the odd silly song or musical score thrown in with cheating husbands such as Alec Baldwin, a laughable and short appearance by Kevin Spacey and Oliver Platt makes an appearance.
. Most of the film is pure nonsense, meetings, drivel between Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith and the other characters and feels nice at times and horrible at others.
