Predrag Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot is a comedy directed by Roger Spottiswoode (Turner And Hooch) and starring Sylvester Stallone (Rocky), Estelle Getty (TV sitcom The Golden Girls), and JoBeth Williams (Poltergeist). Stallone plays Joey Bomowski, L.A. cop who gets a surprise visit from his mother Tutti, played by Getty. She's in town to clean up Joey's house, clean up his crumbling love life with his boss Gwen, played by Williams, and clean up the city as she partners up with her son to catch some bad guys who were involved in a crime that she is the only witness to. Joey, on the other hand, must deal with his mother showing everybody she meets his baby pictures, washing his gun with water and soap, and feeding him breakfast (the most important meal of the day!) The movie is silly but mildly entertaining. Getty and Stallone's on screen chemistry is the worst since Dolly Parton and Stallone's duet performance in Rhinestone.There's really not much to say about "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot". It follows a recurring gag: the mother embarrassing her son, whether he's at home or on the job. Estelle Gelly sure is an old-fashion mother, very unrealistically so. She baked cookies, tucked her son to bed and sang a lullaby, made a huge breakfast for her son to eat, and even telling stories that he wet the bed (on a speakerphone), even in front of a suicide jumper next to Sly at one point; I know mothers often pamper their children, but normal mothers know when their child grows up. I understand it's a joke, but I don't really understand her at times: she seems very smart when she's helping Sly find some bad guys, but often she's very clueless like when she randomly bought an illegal weapon for her son; idiot savant or wise senility? I know the late great Golden Girl can be funnier than what she was in this movie, and the outrageous zany music didn't acclimate a dumb gag. It's a typical 90's screwball buddy-cop flick with an unusual partner, the unusual one being a senior citizen. The relationship between Sly and his mother had a few heartfelt moments, sappy as they are, which made me felt attached to them a bit. This is a generic flick, but it's a generic flick that plays fair.Overall rating: 6 out of 10.

Leofwine_draca STOP! OR MY MOM WILL SHOOT is a film specifically selected by its star Sylvester Stallone as being his worst-ever movie (although, to be fair, he's made a fair few stinkers since that statement). It's an incredibly corny and dated cop/crime/comedy in which Stallone plays the usual tough guy character who's driven out of his mind by the arrival of his over-protective mother, played by Estelle Getty. When the pair get involved with a gang of gun smugglers, all hell breaks loose...I guess STOP! OR MY MOM WILL SHOOT came out at a time when cop spoofs were all over cinema, with the likes of LAST ACTION HERO and NATIONAL LAMPOON'S LOADED WEAPON 1 all filling multiplexes (or not, as the case may be). There's nothing specifically to dislike about this movie, but then there's nothing really to like about it either. The jokes are corny and predictable and the characters feel one-dimensional in their own movie. Even Stallone is on autopilot, able to bring little charm to what is a stock hero role. At the end of the day, a comedy wins or loses depending on how funny it is, and this film just isn't very funny. JoBeth Williams (POLTERGEIST) and Martin Ferrero (JURASSIC PARK) co-star.

mtankgunner13 Somehow I've missed this one over the years; didn't even know about it I guess, but watched it just now on NetFlix & glad I saw it. It was a lot of fun. The chemistry between Stallone & Getty was great & I love some of the one liners...many of which are not played up but there as little treats. Two supporting actors have played in Jurrasic Park (1 & 2). Stallone is said to have hated this little gem but I'm sorry he feels that way; after 'Cobra', the Rockies & John Rambo flicks, it was a treat to see him do comedy, of which he did very well.*** SPOILERS *** When Getty (as the mother) trains a gun on a bad guy she says "I'll be back" to which Stallone rolls his eyes and says "Mom, don't say 'I'll be Back'; cops don't say I'll be back', Terminators say that." There's a lot of that sort of fun in the movie.Cheesy? sure; fun? Yes, a lot.

Desertman84 Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot is an action comedy that stars Sylvester Stallone,who tries to be a comedic actor in this movie and and Estelle Getty.Stop! It was written by Blake Snyder, William Osborne and William Davies; and directed by Roger Spottiswoode.Police detective Joe Bromowski has just broken off his relationship with his girlfriend and fellow police officer,Gwen Harper, so Joe's mother Tutti decides it's time to pay him a visit. Tutti proceeds to make Joe's life miserable by nagging him about his clothes, cleaning his apartment, washing his gun, tagging along on investigations, and somehow getting involved with a gun-running organization that the police have been trying to infiltrate.This is definitely one of the worst comedies ever release in cinema.The story is an unimaginative effort can be attributed to the script and the flat direction doesn't help.Obviously,Stallone misses his mark in it.
