Enganchados

Just filled with crude stereotypes of Jewish parents and blacks, this film keeps feeling like someone is improvising from an empty story to start with. Tilly keeps chasing men until she can find the predicted love of her life, Dr. Steven, but only finds one disaster after another. Some name puns get overkilled with Richard, an annoying guy at work. The Uncola man even shows up to analyze what she learned from all these guys and why she keeps chasing them. It was an endurance test to view more than 10 minutes before quitting.

Joan Rivers and the fella playing her husband made this movie something of value to me. And Jennifer Tilly is pretty cute too. But to me, the parents- played by Joan Rivers and Robert Klein- were the stand-outs in an otherwise lackluster film.

Disappointing to me the way the film ultimately turned out (not as mystical and romantic as I'd hoped), but all the way up to the end, it had promise to get better. I appreciate the campiness, I appreciate the old-fashioned something about it that I don't know how to describe... I do like it...but still, it's lacking.

This is one of those films that falls below its potential, but is still an okay watch.

LOVED this darling, memorable, big little film. Jennifer TIlly plays herself, so to speak, and her outfits are cute: 50's embellished sequined sweaters, cute halter dresses and so on. Christian LaCroix, Natori! To name a few of the costume designers.. Aside from her outfits- Star studded cast and star studded non-acting credits- Branford Marsalis supplied the sax music in this relaitively unknown movie. To give you an idea of some of the jokes in this that were to me, hilarious, were when the parents (Joan Rivers, Robert Klein)do the happy dance when they hear (misunderstand, actually) that Tilly is dating a man in medicine. It aired on the "THISTv" network on December 20, 2022. My personal complaint with this story is the ending, rather, the lack of one, but I swear it won't detract from the watchability of the entire thing. Please watch, and enjoy! There are some familiar faces in this surprisingly nice little .. gem! It gets gem status.

I loved this movie! Danielle Harris was wonderful and Jennifer Tilly totally brought out her character. It's witty, fun and has lots of laughs. I totally recommend it!

I am a big Jennifer Tilly fan and found her enjoyable to watch in this rather silly but fun picture.

She breezes through the film enticing men with her wiles which are considerable in my opinion.
