vintkd It's a most funny adventure comedy that I have seen lately. I never not laugh so loud as in watching this awesome film. Fantastic Bette Midler and pretty Shelley Long made up an incredibly and charismatic duet. Their characters and images are absolutely diverse, but they are a terrific and laughable team, without a doubt. Great director and veteran of cinema Arthur Hiller was able to make really timeless film, that will be make laugh else many generations for a long years. If you like such old kind movies as "Midnight Run", "Overboard", "See No Evil, Hear No Evil", that you will be delighted from "Outrageous Fortune". Such films wants re-watching infinitely, you always find something fresh.

edwagreen Two completely different dames fall for the same guy. Bette Midler and Shelly Long make a wonderful dynamic duo.The problem with the film is that once the total plot is revealed, the movie goes downhill in quality and becomes one with full chase scenes.The quality here is that these totally different women could possibly bond together. Of course, given the situation that confronts them, bonding would be a way of survival.Robert Prosky was quite funny as the acting teacher, who is really a KGB agent. Peter Coyote has his moments as the false elementary schoolteacher up to his neck in espionage as a double agent.Fun, but then it becomes increasingly inane.

gusfaute This is a good funny comedy movie. The actresses are both very good in their roles.It is just a simple comedy adventure type movie, the jokes are pretty funny. I haven't found it on DVD except for the edited for TV version which is too bad because I just know it won't be as funny with parts edited out.I'm not sure how the edited for TV version of the movie is different but it is about 10+ minutes shorter so obviously they just cut out some stuff either for length or because of adult situations which I don't remember from the movie but maybe there were some.

Nicholas When I watched this on TV for the first time, I didn't know what to think. I was immediately drawn in by the opening music theme (although old, it's VERY catchy!). This turned out to be a spectacular buddy-chase movie. In my opinion, those chase movies are generally good, but this one has a good soundtrack that helps aid the movie. The sets look really neat, and you don't want this movie to end. Shelley Long is one of my favorite actresses and I hope she continues to make more movies. The best part about this movie is that you actually feel like watching it again over and over!10/10. Go rent this or buy it on DVD!
