    Although it won't leave one speechless, this is an intelligent and humorous romcom

    Julia (Geena Davis) is a longtime speechwriter, currently working on a senatorial campaign in New Mexico. Kevin (Michael Keaton) has just been hired to be the speechwriter for the opposing candidate. Both are insomniacs. Late one night, they connect at the hotel shop counter where they are both reaching for a bottle of sleeping pills. Sparks fly furiously. Neither knows the other's occupation. But, how long will it be before this big secret is revealed? And, isn't Julia engaged to a hotshot international correspondent anyway? This is a cute movie in a cactus setting. Davis and Keaton are funny and believable as the ace writers. A scene where they speak/duel before a group of school children is priceless. The supporting cast is nice, the script is quite good, and the costumes and scenery more than adequate. And, yes, the movie has some good messages about politics, wolves in sheeps clothing, and true believers. Although it won't leave anyone speechless, this intelligent, humorous love story delights its target audience very well.

    Competent and easy on the eye romantic comedy

    Easy on the mind, on the eyes, and on the ears.

    Geena Davis and Michael Keaton make the most of the best lines in the script, and support from Christopher Reeve is excellent. The film stutters on occasion and may be ten minutes or so too long, but it manages to keep you interested, just.

    Watch for the continuity errors when Geena manages to get herself engaged during one short bedtime phone call. The ring that didn't come from the phone!!! And what an appearance by the red Morgan convertible, put through its paces by Davis and Keaton in more than one way.

    Good for a night in with popcorn, chocs, and ice cream.

    Good acting ruined by bad writing

    Despite some decent acting by the leads (Davis and Keaton) and even the supporting cast, they couldn't do much with this dud. I think the script was mostly to blame although one wonders how the director let such lame material make it to the screen.

    Someone should cast Davis and Keaton together in a well-written romantic comedy -- they looked good together and can even pull off some funny physical comedy.

    Speechless

    I gotta admit, when I first saw this film, I didn't like it. I had a chance to watch again (being a BIG Michael Keaton fan), and hey, it's really good. Geena Davis, another wonderful actor, and Keaton, play off one another so well. And it's fun to think back on "Beetlejuice". She and Keaton again. And to watch Christopher Reeves makes one realize how we've lost such a great actor and human being. Watch for the early car scene when they've returned to the hotel early in the morning. It's a hoot. I also loved Charles Martin Smith; he's just good in everything. Remember him? He was the goofy guy in "American Graffiti". Yes, this movie has some corny laughs, but the majority are very funny and Keaton/Davis really connect; they are very believable. Don't miss the scene where Keaton and Reeves are talking around the pool table; that's also a gem. Enjoy this one; it'll make you laugh when you need a laugh.

    Funny, but not worth owning it

    This film had some humorous parts, but whoever filmed this movie has no idea what the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta really looks like. It did New Mexico a true injustice. I'd pay 49 cents to rent it, but I certainly wouldn't own it.

    • Quotes

      [Kevin and Julia are talking in front of a group of junior high school students]

      Female Student: Is there much interaction between the two campaigns? I mean, between Democrats and Republicans?

      Kevin: [to Julia] Ah, I believe this is your area.

      Julia: Uh, it's discouraged for campaigns to interact. For instance, if one speechwriter were to date another, they might reveal something crucial about the campaign. Some campaigns have spies for just this purpose, whose job it is to follow the speechwriter, and to seduce her...

      Kevin: --Or him...

      Julia: --Into revealing her secrets.

      Kevin: On the other hand, some speechwriters have the tendency to become what is known as "paranoid," and just because someone seems interested in her doesn't mean they're after her "secrets."

      Julia: Still, it's not paranoid to become suspicious of a "chance" encounter which isn't really chance...

      Kevin: --Or someone lying about the work she does. A good speechwriter could protect herself from this situation by not flirting, you know, not sniffing around like a cat in heat.

      Julia: Or she might tell the other speechwriter to his face, "Peddle your shit elsewhere, scumbag."
