what do you get when you put the 2 great actress alive today ( meryl streep and goldie hawn ) together with the incomparable bruce willis and throw in a little isabella roselini for good measure . you get a hilariously funny comedy that have to have be just as much fun to make a it be to watch . the effect in this film be uproariously funny and definitely oscar worthy . the acting be unsurpassed and it be fill with comic scene such a the one where they make hellen sharp ( goldie character ) look a hundred pound heavier and place her in an apartment clutter with trash and cat and and frost container . how about the funny line such a you paint my as and i will paint yours . and the wouldeath scene . how do you kill something that would not die . you do not but you have lot of fun mutilate her . the fight sequence where hellen and madeline ashton ( meryl character ) beat each other senseless without kill each other or even inflict pain be uproariously funny . hellen wind up with a huge hole in her stomach and madeline wind up with a broken neck that would not repair itself . only earnest menville ( bruce willis character and the man these 2 woman fight over throughout the film ) can piece them together again . not since bette davis and joan crawford in whatever happen to baby jane . have 2 such brilliant and gifted actress be on the same screen and work so well together to make such a colorful and masterful film . see it today and if you haven not already and if you have . see it again .
