an off beat but very delightful performance by john travolta set off this very funny comedy . his interpretation of the archangel be a a scuffy and womanizing and overweight and ladies man . and and he certainly have a mesmerize effect on the woman he encounter on his trip to chicago . john hurt be very low key in his role a chief reporter for chicago tabloid owner and bob hoskins . angie macdowell play role much a she do her role in four wedding and a funeral . maureen stapleton be neat in a cameo . her comment and michael doesn not suffer fool and be just one of many memorable moment . bob hoskins be the only one of the lead performer who fail to connect and a little to off the wall . mainly youre there to see michael take on a bull and mesmerize the waitress and lady dancer at a western style restaurant and and fully demonstrate that he be complete free soul . it be a memorable comedy that be worth more than one viewing .
